Pocket Genius Cats

A true cat-alog: more than 100 feline breeds and cross-breeds adorn the pages of this mini-encyclopedia, which packs a whole lot of information into your pocket!

Along with a photo of each breed, discover the facts and stats of each cat, including its size, where the breed originated, colors and markings, and unusual features or behaviors. You'll soon be able to tell a Burmese from a Siamese; a rex from a sphynx and a manx; and an American shorthair from a British shorthair. You will also discover a lot about colors and patterns. Did you know that tabby cats and tortoiseshells are not breeds, but colors within breeds? Plus there are pages introducing cat anatomy and behavior; and the book ends with fun facts.

The style of the Pocket Genius series is perfect for all children, from reluctant readers who can easily digest the key points to budding vets and cat-lovers of all shapes and sizes who want to know everything about the best pets on the planet.
