Book Description

Publication Date: August 15, 2005 | Series: Page a Day Gallery Calendar

The ineffable cat-ness of cats, captured in hundreds of intimate portraits in color and black and white. A beautifully marked calico just visible through the tall grass. The icy blue eyes of a Siamese. A tiny gray kitten, innocence exemplified. An all-black cat in a field of snow. Luxuriant fur, willowy tails, silky ears, mesmerizing gazes. Each of these graceful photographs—head shots, action shots, and lazingaround shots—captures the cat in all its glamour and mystique.

5.0 out of 5 stars cat lovers rejoice, September 19, 2005

This review is from: Cat Gallery Page-a-Day Calendar 2006 (Page a Day Gallery Calendar) (Calendar)

This is an excellent calendar......not only are the pictures clear, sharp, and bright, but the subjects are adorable. The size of the pictures are large and will look beautiful on a desk or counter. In the past, with other calendars, I used to have too many past pages to either throw out or save, and after awhile my drawers were overflowing......now you just move the pages to the back of the holder and reuse them the last half of the year by turning the holder around. All around, a great cat calendar for cat people!!

Upon purchsing this as a gift, I immediately ordered an additional one for myself. The beauty of the cats in these pictures leaves a strong impression. Congratulations to the photographers, they have highlighted the natural beauty of cats and given us a year's worth of smiles.

Since I purchased my first page a day cat calendar years ago and enjoyed it so much its become a yearly tradition for me! The pictures in the gallery calendar are on heavy paper and both sides printed for less waste/bulk. Half way through the year simply flip the calendar and enjoy the second half. Beautiful photography vivid colors, amusing and even artistic pictures are included. I might have to get the dog one now too!
