Product Description
From kitty IQs to artist’s mews: A cat-ty compilation of the joys, histories, myths, magic, wonders, and comforts of our feline friends.“What greater gift than the love of cat?” —Charles Dickens
No one’s arguing.
The Cat Lover’s Compendium is dedicated to the history and nature of the fantastic feline, celebrating all the curious characteristics of the cat—playful, nonchalant, cunning, and coy, much like their human companions. For those who purr with delight at the thought of relaxing with a good read and a sweet, furry friend curled up on their lap, this compilation makes a perfect gift, bringing together cat facts, fables, poems, quotations, trivia, and behavioral tips.
From the truth behind the legend of the pussywillow, to the meaning behind meows, to discovering how the Manx lost its tail, to illuminating the mysterious disposition of our furry and secretive, four-legged counterparts, The Cat Lover’s Compendium is an indulgently pleasurable read for the avid ailurophile (a.k.a. cat fancier, as if you didn’t know).
