Chicken Soup for the Soul Celebrates Cats: and the People Who Love Them [Hardcover]

Jack Canfield (Author), Mark Victor Hansen (Author), Sharon Wohlmuth (Photographer)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 12, 2004 | Series: Chicken Soup for the Soul

From the impishness of kittens, to the regal mystery of adult cats, our feline companions never cease to captivate our hearts and imagination.

This wonderful volume celebrates the moments we share with our feline friends—those both tender and amusing. It reminds us of the unique idiosyncrasies that keep us in their thrall: their independence and their affection, their mystique, their playfulness and, yes, even their disdain.

Deep down, all cat lovers know that the animals they love are great big lions in disguise. This romantic notion is captured in the photographs, stories, poems and witticisms that grace these pages.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

The evergreen Chicken Soup franchise continues with this cute little point-of-purchase book dedicated to felines (dog lovers need not feel snubbed, as there is a companion volume just for them). Familiar quotes (Colette’s "Time spent with cats is never wasted") share space with poems of varying quality, charming photographs and, of course, the heartwarming stories that are this series’s bread and butter. Contributors—mostly women—tell of getting called into kitty court, learning to love a stray and helping to save a feral kitten. Style, such as it is, trumps substance, as there are only a handful of narratives, but there are enough appealing photos to fill in the gaps.
