Cats is the ideal comic companion for those who love (and are driven crazy by) our feline friends. Over 140 entries illustrate a wealth of cat breeds - from the attention-loving Siamese to the playful Exotic Shorthair - followed by an extensive cat dictionary, which finally defines those characteristic behaviours and cat-related incidents that all cat lovers will recognise.

British Shorthair - an old-fashioned sort of Brit. Reserved, mild-tempered, quiet and faithful. Probably the sort of cat that would host a very exclusive and polite cocktail party. Most often comes in a delightful blue hue.

Foldex - although it sounds like a trademarked name for a hi-tech folding machine, this is in fact a folded-ear breed that was first developed in the 1990s in Quebec, Canada. Their wide eyes and thick, fluffy tail is complemented by a cheerful and affectionate personality.

Catanchored - a cat that is unafraid of anything and remains impassive and immovable even when spotted by a dog (much to the dog's confusion and alarm).
