Yoga for Cats

By Talia Katasanda

She's back! Talia Katasanda, the feline guru of yoga devotees worldwide, returns at last. In this delightful handbook, she illustrates the major asanas of Hatha Yoga along with her dogged . . . er . . . cataleptic determination to maintain balance in an unbalanced world. Lithe and lovely in her snow-white coat, she moves from lotus to peacock, from padi madi to poorna, each pose chosen to enhance such vital physical attributes as tail swish, whisker growth and curvaceous claws. Along the way, she illustrates - inadvertently - some of the tangles and pitfalls that may befuddle the yoga beginner, whether feline or human. This collection of 42 witty sketches, complete with captions that identify and explain each asana, has delighted thousands of yoga and feline enthusiasts since its debut nearly two decades ago. Now after a brief retreat for meditation and renewal. Talia is set to inspire a new generation of converts.

Yoga For Cats

This is a very funny little book of cartoons in which a very expressive cat illustrates various yoga poses. It's quite accurate too, with all the asanas named in Sanskrit. But it's the cat's facial expressions and body contortions that are so funny (though hard to describe). It's also great that this is a Canadian book by a Canadian artist.

For the young at heart and a must for all cat worshipers!

The book has it's own sense of humor. For ANYONE who has ever practiced Yoga, heard of Yoga, taught Yoga or just laughed when they witnessed someone else in any stance from the Lotus -- The Perfect Posture to the Plough (A defensive position.) It is just simply refreshing. A quick read but one you will remember laughing all the way through.
