Fur Babies: Why We Love Cats

Fur Babies: Why We Love Cats

by Liz Jones (Author)

Synopsis

This is the ideal book for anyone who adores their cat, or as Liz Jones calls these small, demanding, understanding creatures, their 'fur baby'. Fur Babies captures something of the love and solace that Liz's own pussycats - Snoopy, Squeaky, Susie, Sweetie and now new baby Leonardo - have given her over the past 15 years. Funny, irreverent, quirky and eccentric, Liz chronicles her love affair with cats. She describes her personal relationship with her own cats - why she loves them so much, their different personalities, habits, likes and dislikes and also injects anecdotes from cat lovers she has met along the way. The book also includes essays, poems, homages, drawings and photographs that well-known people - including Ricky Gervais, Tracey Emin, Catherine Tate and Jilly Cooper - have donated to Liz for the book.
