Cat Naps. The Secret Life of Cats by Przemysław Wechterowicz & Kasia Walentynowicz

Illustrated guide to the different catnap positions

A gently humorous, strikingly illustrated guide to the different catnap positions favored by felines—and what they reveal about each cat’s personality.
 
How does your cat like to nap? It’s well known that kitties have perfected the art of sleeping, and this adorable book shows them in a host of comfy positions—all accompanied by brief, irreverent descriptions of the pose. Some toms and tabbies hang loose, throwing themselves onto the nearest piece of furniture, while others stretch out their paws, crash behind the heater, and worship the sun. Cube hunters curl up in a shoebox or undersized container, while only the bravest settle themselves right on top of the family dog. With its irresistible pictures and humorous text, Cat Naps is the perfect gift for fans of all felines.
