There is nothing more cute or appealing that a little kitten who wants to play or wants to curl up on their owners lap for a well-deserved snooze. Kitten affection is a unique experience, and they can very quickly become attached to their owners. Why do cats purr? How much can you learn about a cats mood from the direction it flicks its tail? How do cats show trust with their eyes? Why do cats rub against their owners legs? Arranged in chapters covering shorthairs and longhairs, Encyclopedia of Cats features a huge range of breeds from all around the world. From Siamese to Russian Blue, Manx to American Bobtail, Burmese to Bombay, the book expertly explores and celebrates this most beloved pet. With fascinating captions on every page, even cat lovers will learn something new. Encyclopedia of Cats is a brilliant examination in over 400 outstanding vivid photographs.
