"I love the warmth, playfulness, and even the aristocracy in these pictures, perfectly capturing the many moods of the feline companion. This book is like having a warm bundle of fur cuddled on your lap--even if your real cat currently prefers to nap in an empty box." --Amy Smith, writer at www.madandbean.com
"Not only are the pictures of cats in this book a pleasure to the eyes, but research suggests that viewing images of adorable cats is good for mental health. The type of images presented in this book have been found to boost positive emotions, give viewers an energy bump, and decrease negative feelings." --Shira Gabriel, PhD Associate Professor of Psychology at the University at Buffalo, SUNY
