Louis Wain and Beatrix Potter adored them but Disney preferred dogs; cats have been depicted in art, books and, more recently, film and TV as lovable but determined creatures. Where the dog is loving but stupid, the cat is clever but sly and best-selling author David Alderton explores this myth and reveals just who the most famous cats are, to include cartoon classics such as Top Cat, Felix and the dastardly Si and Am from 101 Dalmatians. Using collectable memorabilia and original book covers, this charming book is a purr-fect stocking filler, along with its doggish counterpart, 'Famous Dogs' by Fiona Shoop – ideal packaged together.
David Alderton is an award-winning best-selling author (over 6 million books) and columnist who has written dozens of books on animals in the 20 years since studying to be a vet. David is much in demand in the cat world due to his knowledge of and affection for pedigree cats
