about the author
introduction
I ve always been a cat person. I grew up on a farm, spending my youth in the barn with countless litters of kittens, building trust, learning about their development and behavior. Without fail, kittens are curious and funny, fuzzy and cute. As I was photographing this book, I was reminded of kittens from my past, and my love for these unique little creatures was renewed. Every day is a new adventure for them; they are carefree, exploring the world, perfecting their hunting skills through play, testing the limits of their balance and coordination. Kittens are a delight to watch, to play with, and to snuggle with. The best part of their day (or maybe of yours) may be simply chasing a string dragged across the floor.
This book highlights twenty-five different types of kittens, both mixed-breed and purebred, photographed at life size. You ll see many universal, precious kitten qualities in the different breeds: fuzzy paws, big ears, tiny wet noses, wiry little tails, snuggly bodies, and wide, curious eyes.
