Review: Animal Friends: Hello Cats!

Animal Friends Hello, Cats by Editors of Storey Publishing featuring various cats doing cat things on the coverI received this book from the publisher/Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.

So last year I read Animal Friends: Hello Dogs! (see review here) and had so much fun reading it, so when I saw this book on Netgalley I knew I needed it in my life! And this one was just as fun as the dog book!

In this adorable book we learn all about cats. From how to pet them (which is the perfect spot to pet) to tails and ears and how many different ones there to the various colours and breeds there are (from black to calico) to all the various hair types you have. Also some basic information on what it means when cats ears are x way or when their tail or body is doing y. It was so informative and I loved every bit of it. At times it was a bit chaotic, but you know, for this book I didn’t mind it that much, it just made it more fun as you didn’t always know what would be next. I liked how varied the information was in this one. Often with books about cats they mostly focus on a few themes or just one. This one just tries to cram everything in it and makes it fun.

I also loved the bonus extras that were included. Like a place to place stickers (which well, I cannot do as I got an ebook). A cat journal, cat bingo, and of course stickers. I did like that the page was included, though of course it only made me miss it more because I cannot get stickers out of an ebook, haha.

Oh, and I like that there were some fun things you could make for your kitty! Like a catnip in the sock toy.

I did think it was a bit odd that this book follows the dog book and then when talking about tails says this: “Unlike a dog wagging a friendly tail, a cat lashes her tail rapidly back and forth to show anger and displeasure.” Sure, a lot of time dogs wag because they are happy, but there may be instances a wag is not happy.

All in all, just like with the dog book I would highly recommend this adorable, fun, cute, sweet book to everyone. I cannot wait to see which animal is next!

Star rating, 4.5 stars
