Cats

CATS is a thoroughly researched and beautifully illustrated tribute to the animal that was worshiped by the ancient Egyptians as a god and that is still treated as such by many of us in our own homes today. The domestic cat has evolved from a formidable wild creature into the graceful, agile, affectionate, yet independent creature we know and love. Looking into the history of the cat, the development of the different breeds, the criteria used to judge these breeds in shows, as well as feline psychology and communication techniques, CATS is practical as well as informative and beautiful. Enjoy a thoroughly researched and fantastically illustrated portrait of forty different breeds, including Persians and other longhairs and British, American, and Oriental shorthairs. CATS, a title in the popular series Pet Library, is an illustrated, practical guide to animals we love so much that we make them part of the family.
