Real Cats

Hardcover, 21 x 21 cm
ca. 128 pages
full-colour illustrated

Cats are still associated with various stereotypes: from cuddly pet to unapproachable queen, from ‘tea cosy’ to skilled mouser, from refined lady-companion to tramp, from goody-goody calico cat to mysterious being… But: in every pet cat, alley cat, holy cat, magic cat, shelter cat, pedigree cat and city cat there still remains a little of the original wild cat from the Old Egypt. Cats come in all sorts (and sizes), are to be found all over the world and… they feel at home almost everywhere. This book takes you on a journey to the various continents and shows you the world through the eyes of ‘real cats’. At the same time, Real Cats is an homage to all cats without owner, stray cats, that fully enjoy their freedom in a way of living that is far removed from the luxury bestowed on house-pets. A different view on cats! Leaf through this magnificent book and experience the compelling and moving atmosphere created by photographer Viona Ielegems in these strong cat-portraits.

A look at the world through the eyes of real cats!

A skilful designed en beautiful book that pictures the cat in its own individual surrounding. A lovely present for any occasion!
