Penguin Random House Penguin Books Cats A Feline Compendium

Cats: A Feline Compendium by Fennella Smith  A light-hearted look at felines and their most amusing (and infuriating) habits, Cats is the perfect gift for cat enthusiasts of all ages and every level of cat-fanaticism. Featuring over 140 entries delightfully illustrating a wealth of cat breeds and their quirks, with an extensive cat dictionary that delves into the characteristic behaviours and cat-related incidents that all cat lovers will recognise.  Check out these entries:  British Shorthair – an old-fashioned sort of Brit. Reserved, mild-tempered, quiet and faithful. Probably the sort of cat that would host a very exclusive and polite cocktail party. Most often comes in a delightful blue hue. Foldex – although it sounds like a trademarked name for a hi-tech folding machine, this is in fact a folded-ear breed that was first developed in the 1990s in Quebec, Canada. Their wide eyes and thick, fluffy tail is complemented by a cheerful and affectionate personality. Catanchored – a cat that is unafraid of anything and remains impassive and immovable even when spotted by a dog (much to the dog’s confusion and alarm). Check out our comprehensive New Kitten Guide for all the information you need for your new feline family member. Read all about how to catify your home.
