Reviews

[Rossella · Rating 3 out of 5]

Negli anni ho avuto gatti di ogni colore, ma mai uno completamente nero. Se in futuro dovesse entrare a far parte della famiglia una bella micia scura come la notte, a dispetto di tutte le persone ignoranti che ancora considerano i gatti neri portatori di cattiva sorte, penso proprio che la chiamerei, stregonescamente, Sciagura. Con il mio Attila rosso fuoco formerebbe una coppia perfetta!

Libricino di piccole dimensioni, belle foto, indicazioni base per la scelta e la cura dei gatti.

This was an okay little book. It could have been better, as it was not totally about black cats. Some nice photographs.
