This book is an extremely informative edition covering many feline breeds, both large and small, along with the history of the domesticated cat. As a person who rescues cats, I really enjoyed reading this book.

This book includes a brief introductory history of the domesticated cat, beautiful color photographs of the feline breeds, and a cat care guide. Each breed is discussed by origin, appearance, coat, characteristics and temperament, and varieties. The cats cooperated by agreeing to be photographed in every imaginable pose.
