It's a beautiful little book that sums of the wonderment of the cat. The illustrations are great. I'd like to find out more about the illustrator, Derold Page. His cat paintings are fabulous.

These photos are simply marvelous. Having been the owner of many cats these past twenty-seven years (and a few kittens when young), I have taken many photographs over this period of time. None, however, can compare with these. It makes your heart glad to look at the lovelies in the different poses and stances. Cats are highly intelligent and know exactly how to pose under different circumstances. Recently, I needed a ride to the vet to get Star's yearly shots and checkup. She heard me say "All we need are her shots, so it shouldn't take long." She hid under the bed until almost time to go, forgoing her tuna lunch, and I had to hytail her out to get ready for the trip.

Lillian Jackson Braun has made a fortune writing about the cats 'who' and had this quoke, "Cats never strike a pose that isn't photogenic." Some of her enormous supply of these books include THE CAT WHO PLAYED BRAHMS, THE CAT WHO TALKED TO GHOSTS, and THE CAT WHO TALKED TO THE BIRDS (which Amazon did not have listed, so perhaps it was listed in her Cat short stories).

Cats are independent but lovable creatures who love you and make good companions for all ages. And the best thing is they don't bark,.
