The man who invented the cat show wrote the book on cats. Harrison Weir, artist and founder of the first National Cat Show in 1871, poured his devotion into this classic: the breeds and their points, colors and characters, care and feeding, and a gallery of remarkable cats he knew. His mission was simple, to raise the humble cat to the honor it deserved, and he succeeded for all of us. Charming, authoritative, and full of Victorian warmth. Your own committee of cats will approve.
