Revel in the mystique and graceful beauty of the cat. The striking gaze of a Siamese. A white kitten against a white background. A black cat captured in a slant of light. A Maine coon, fluffy and decidedly ruffled. The texture of a tongue, the soft curve of an ear, eyes that shine. Featuring hundreds of beautifully composed and reproduced portraits—in both black-and-white and color—this calendar is a stunning tribute to the cat, its independent spirit and singular charms.

About the Author
Books, calendars, trends. Workman is a publisher that's always around big ideas. B. Kliban's Cat, 1,000 Places to See Before You Die, The Silver Palate Cookbook, Bad Cat the original Page-A-Day Calendars, the What to Expect books, BRAIN QUEST—landmark bestsellers such as these reflect a knack for publishing books and calendars that lead. And a commitment to publish them with a mixture of care and innovation. From our first book in 1972—the Yoga 28-Day Exercise Plan, currently in its twenty-eighth printing—to our most recent, each title embodies a style of publishing synonymous with the Workman name. The bright, appealing trade-paperback format. High standards of design and production. Authors who are authorities, who tour extensively and are spokespeople for their subjects. Unexpected formats. The packaging of books with objects. And above all, value through conscientious, aggressive pricing. Then once a book is published, we stay after it through promotion and publicity. Take, for example, the case of The Official Preppy Handbook, and how an idiosyncratic bestseller was transformed into a phenomenon, complete with posters and stationery—even pins and nightshirts. Or What to Expect When You're Expecting, which started with a modest 6,700-copy advance in 1984 and has grown into America's pregnancy bible, currently with over 14 million copies in print. Perhaps more telling is the fact that over two-thirds of all the books we've published in the last twenty-eight years are still in print. Actively so. With a fair share of titles that have over one million copies in print, including BRAIN QUEST, The Silver Palate Cookbook, The New Basics Cookbook, All I Need to Know I Learned from My Cat, The Magic Locket, and The Bones Book and Skeleton. We're equally passionate about our calendars: lush wall calendars, desk diaries, and the groundbreaking Page-A-Day calendar line. It was years ago that Workman followed the 1975 bestseller Cat with the 1976 bestselling B. Kliban's Cat Calendar. Then a few years later we completely changed the business with the introduction of the chunky, irresistible, boxed Page-A-Day calendar. Today we're still growing, evolving, innovating. Our calendar list is bigger, our business more established. But look at our offerings and you'll see not a company running on past successes, but one that works just as hard to launch the new idea as it does to keep the proven title selling—a company that works as hard to publish the best calendar as it does to publish the best book.

5.0 out of 5 stars
cat lovers rejoice,
By Calico Chris (Long Island, NY) - See all my reviews
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.

its a yearly necessity!,

This review is from: Cat Page-A-Day Gallery Calendar 2011 (Calendar)
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!
