If you are just starting to look for a new kitten and want to know what your cat will look like when they grow up, this is an excellent resource. Kittens change so much, although I wish they just stayed little! If you want to identify your cat, this is also a great place to start. You are sure to find a picture that looks pretty darn close to the cat you have. I had to laugh when I looked on page 241 and saw my very own black and white cat and the resemblance was just strikingly good.

After you identify the cat you want to look up, find the name in the index and voila..there you are. A handy Glossary is available for you to look up words like necklace, outcross, pads, laces and feral. And, if you think this book is wonderful, wait until you see: The New Encyclopedia of the Cat by Dr. Bruce Fogle, that I rave on and on about to everyone I know. I recommend both for the serious cat lover! The Encyclopedia of the Cat has some information on Big Cats, while this book focuses on the domestic breeds. ~The Rebecca Review

I've never been disappointed in any of the Eyewitness books I've purchased. I don't know a lot about cat breeds, so my impression is not guided by that standard. The initial sections on general cat characteristics and physical categorizations are well-illustrated and interesting. The sections about the different breeds of cats are much different than dog breeds. For this reason, I am not sure that the breed presentation is what most cat lovers would expect. We keep many stray cats, and enjoy knowing more about the origins of their physical characteristics. Actual breed standards is not an issue.The pictures, as always in any Eyewitness book, are gorgeous, perfectly reproduced, and every page is covered with them in an eye-pleasing layout.
