Inhaltsangabe

For fans of felines and connoisseurs of photography: exquisite portraits of cats young and old, serene and manic, affectionate and aloof. Each is accompanied by an apt quotation drawn from a variety of the most articulate celebrators of the cat, from T. S. Eliot to Colette, Leonardo da Vinci to Jim Davis (of "Garfield" fame).
A cat alone by the telephone ("Dogs come when they're called. Cats take a message and get back to you"), a cat eyeing a goldfish, a cat returning the love of a person, an intrepid explorer kitten - image after image of cats dignified, playful, mischievous, and loving.
This book of endearing (and enduring) portraits displays the special grace and intuition that Jim Dratfield and Paul Coughlin bring to the photography of animals. Through the alternately witty and elegant compositions and the other-worldly beauty lent by the sepia prints, these photographs eloquently express the independent and mysterious essence of Cat.
