While dogs are famously known to be man’s best friends, cats have often been the ones to accompany great artists through life. Felines are said to possess some of the same defining character traits as their owners, making them great sidekicks as well as inspiring muses.
 
From Pablo Picasso to Andy Warhol and Frida Kahlo, a large number of artists have curiously been huge cat lovers.
 
This brilliant hardcover features endearing behind-the-scenes stories of over 50 famous artists and their feline friends. From John Lennon and Yoko Ono's herd of cats –which included Salt (who was black) and Pepper (who was white)– to Salvador Dali's pet ocelot Babou, this book shares numerous anecdotes and photographs of these cuddly, furry friendships.
