Cats Up Close: The Guide to Vintage Patterns and Clothing

Arranged thematically, this book begins with a chapter that shows cats playing and exploring in winter, spring, summer, and fall; following chapters feature kittens and cat-napping; cats in action; celebrity cat fanciers; the well-traveled cat; and the social cat (the pedigreed kitty that is able to communicate with other animals). An engaging and entertaining introduction describes the amazing activities of these beloved pets with nine lives, supplemented by pithy quotes from literary admirers. Celebrating cats that are cuddly and adventurous, lounging at home or leaping across streams, cavorting with newsmakers or nuzzling up to other furry friends, this appealing compendium provides a fresh, surprising portrait of cats and kittens.
