5.0 out of 5 stars Best Kitten Wall Calendar, November 19, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: 365 Kittens-a-Year Calendar 2002 (Calendar)

This is the best kitten calendar for every day of the year! I have purchased this calendar for at least nine years and each year I think the kittens are cuter. Has anyone ever seen an ugly kitten or puppy? I highly recommend this calendar for anyone who needs a bright spot everyday.

5.0 out of 5 stars A cute calander for anyone who loves cats, November 23, 2001

This review is from: 365 Kittens-a-Year Calendar 2002 (Calendar)

What I liked about this calander. On the days of the month, from January to December, it has a good amount of space to write appointments, events, meetings etc. The calander is very colorful and has lots of pictures of cute kittens. Each of the 12 months, there is is a quote relating to kittens and interesting kitten facts and tips. The calander also gives details on how to enroll a picture of your kitten for the 2003 calander.

This review is from: The 365 Kittens-A-Year Calendar 2008 (Picture-A-Day Wall Calendars) (Calendar)

Every year, I have to purchase more and more copies of "The 365 Kittens A Year" calendar for friends and relatives who have seen my copy and want one of their own. The calendar is standard-size wall-format with a color picture of a kitten or kittens for every day of the year---some posed, some just being naturally irresistible.

365 pictures of kittens makes a great Christmas gift---a smile for every day of year. People from all over the world send in their cutest kitten photographs to be selected for the calendar. If you buy a copy of the 2008 version, there is an entry blank on the first interior page, so that you, too can send in your kitten's photographs for the 2009/2010 contest.

The calendar also includes kitten quotations, e.g. "Kittens learn early to listen intently when someone calls them--and then do absolutely nothing," plus advice on kitten care.

P.S. If you'd like to see the photographs of kittens that were rejected for this calendar, buy a copy of "Bad Cat: 244 Not-So-Pretty Kitties and Cats Gone Bad."
