We know cats don't know the meaning of the term "being controlled": you can't be a cat owner, you can be at least his best friend! They're simply ruthless!
And if you treat them well and don't disturb them too much, they'll show you their love letting you caress their soft fur (or taking you a dead mouse or a lizard! Bleargh :P)…if you haven't got a Sphinx (the cat without hair!), of course…but this kind of cat is the ... more
Today I'm going to talk about "CATS CUBE BOOK" (White Stars Edition)…
WHAT'S IT: Well…as you'd probably understood, it's a cubic book…more or less: 16,5 x 16,5 x 4,5 cm ( an innovative design, hardcover!); more than 700 pages in colour full of pictures of any race of cats and information about them.
THE CHAPTERS: The book is dividev into 13 chapters, as follows: 1- Introduction 2- Noble Pedigree 3- Little Clowns 4- Life in Family 5- Friends Enemies 6- Fights and Scuffles 7- Beyond the Garden 8- Cleaning Time 9- Praise to Idleness 10- A World of Glances 11- Cats in the World 12- Wild Cousins 13- Biography, Index, References
SOMETHING ABOUT CATS: Lovely and sneaky, proud and affectionate little balls of hair… it's not easy to understand their nature: it depends on many things, among those the race of the cat…but it's all explained in this book, written by great names in the fields of the zoological sciences.
We know cats don't know the meaning of the term "being controlled": you can't be a cat owner, you can be at least his best friend! They're simply ruthless! And if you treat them well and don't disturb them too much, they'll show you their love letting you caress their soft fur (or taking you a dead mouse or a lizard! Bleargh :P)…if you haven't got a Sphinx (the cat without hair!), of course…but this kind of cat is the ideal one for those who are allegic to animals' hair! Bit I think caressing a Sphinx is not as satisfying as caressing a Norvegian or a Persian one!
Leafing through this book, we can really learn more about them and the photos we can see make us want to adopt a cat cub!
Magnetic eyes, elegant bearing, characteristic whiskers, cuddles, scratches, fights, jokes…that's a cat! Cats playing, sleeping, yawning, jumping, fighting with mice or other cats; cats climbing, licking themselves, looking around, balancing themselves, lying near a dog (even if it's their worse enemy!), cuddling up to it for warmth…all these images are in this Cube Book!
Most of the time of a cat is spent sleeping…they're really sleepyheads! But they're always attentive, ready to spring up at the first sign of danger. Just if the cat is in a deep sleep, he's really relaxed, and begins to dream, doing little involuntary movements with its ears, legs or tail; sometimes you can hear it purring.
But I'm not going to talk about cats any longer: I'll let you discover the rest on your Cube Book! ;) And besides, reading the information about the different races associating them to their photos, which spy them to let us understand their behaviours, is surely better!
Here are the Cube Books you can find: CATS BABY ANIMALS HORSES SEA EARTH MOUNTAINS
"White Star Edition" also offers us the FLYING HIGH Collection (books bigger than the Cubic ones, with an infinity of photos and descriptions of everything you can see!): AMERICA EGYPT IRELAND THE WOLD
These books are a great idea for those who love animals and photography. That's why I've got 6 of them… Sooner or later I'm going to buy at least the Mountains' Cube Book…and I'm looking for "The Wold"…I can't find it in the libraries yet.
And they're also a nice and elegant gift to make! Price, here in Italy, 15,90 Euros
Thanks for reading this review (sorry for any mistakes! ^__^") ^______^

Ciao members have rated this review on average: not helpful Review of Cats (Cube book)
Cats have always been important to humans, symbolizing qualities such as tenderness, discretion and elegance. Wild and nomadic, or domestic and cuddly, they are the favourite animals of those who appreciate detachment and independence, but also affection. Though small compared to their large cousins in the wild, cats have characteristics in common with lions, leopards and tigers: they are predators, even if their instinct is blunted by domestic life, and are sinuous and agile, playful, intelligent and pitiless. Innovative in format and size, this book offers an almost three-dimensional form to present the pictures 'stolen' by specialized photographers from the everyday lives of these animals. The excellent photographs and texts written by leading zoologists and specialized journalists are brought together in an unusual 'cube' format that creates an elegant and ideal gift book, a pleasure to leaf through and a reward to study. This latest title in the best selling "Cube Books" series, is an ideal gift for cat lovers everywhere. It contains over 800 pages with high quality photography.
