What A Wonderful And Thoughtful Book

I recently bought this book and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I too would recommend this book for cat lovers everywhere. My favorite thing in this book is: When In Doubt - Wash It's a wonderful bit contributed by Paul Gallico and speaks volumes about the attitudes of our feline friends. Thumbs up on the illistrations too. Great job!

Exquisite Cat Art.

Nicola Bayley's latest is a treat for cat lovers and anyone who enjoys brilliant illustrations. She has combined her love of cats, literature, fine art, and pure charm. If you like any or all of these, then this is for you.Although she is listed as an illustrator of children's books (The Patchwork Cat is a classic) her skill should rank her along with other great artists.

A MUST for all CAT Lovers!

This book is a MUST if you are a cat lover. The poetry, writings, and art are great! You can read it over and over and be delighted each time. You can also just skim through the beautiful art when you need to be entertained.
