People are passionate about their cats. We pamper them, we indulge them, and we often attribute to them characteristics that are—let’s face it—even more remarkable than their truly remarkable actual attributes. This delightful collection of magnificent studio photographs celebrates all that is wonderful about cats. And there’s much to celebrate—hence its satisfyingly large format! Divided into chapters organized by moods and expressions, these photographs depict the many faces of our favorite felines. From the sultry gaze of a sinuous Siamese to the disdainful glare of a purebred Persian, from the steady concentration of a cat poised to pounce to the pointy-eared charm of a still awkward kitten, cats spring to life in these superb portraits. Throughout the book, captions introduce us to each cat by name and provide a sentiment purrfectly suited to the portrait above. Feline fanciers of all ages will delight in these spectacular pictures presented in an impressive large format portfolio.
