Sexy Cats

Description

Just what makes a cat sexy? In Sexy Cats J.C. Suarès asks: What could possibly make a cat not sexy? Cats have been practicing sex appeal for centuries. From Abyssinians to alley cats, they've got sex appeal in their blood. From the look to the walk, the personality to the grooming rituals--if you tried to create the sexiest animal on the planet, you'd wind up with a cat.

Full of color photographs of the most gorgeous, beguiling cats in the world, Sexy Cats is a celebration of feline appeal. The images, by such renowned photographers and photojournalists as Gilles Peress, Elliot Erwitt, and Philippe Halsman, are accompanied by classic excerpts, delightful anecdotes, and J.C. Suarès's lively drawings. Sexy Cats stars, among others, Socks the domestic shorthair with the run of the Clinton White House, a seductive Tabby named Alfie, an exotic Egyptian Mau, and Pyewacket--the Siamese costarring with Kim Novak in Bell, Book, and Candle, This charming book features longhairs, shorthairs, champions, and other adorable housepets.
