How many cat breeds are there? Let's find out! This book belongs to all cat lovers!
Did you know that some cats don't have five fingers, but six? We're not pulling your whiskers--it's true! Whether you have your own pet at home or whether you just like these adorable little rascals--read our illustrated cat atlas, which will introduce you to the most interesting, lazy, cuddly, and wild cat breeds in the world, from the common European tabby to the silky-haired Persian cat and the unusual Lykoi. And don't worry, that one over there isn't a tiny werewolf--it just looks like one.
And if you enjoy bedtime stories, don't forget to cuddle up in bed and immerse yourself in the Meow News, a newspaper that comes with the atlas. It contains many stories, interviews, and news from around the world of renowned feline celebrities, as well as lesser-known cat heroes and heroines.
