Cats can be divas or devoted friends.
Cats can be homebodies or intrepid explorers.
Cats can love or loathe their canine counterparts.

But one thing they all share is a natural affinity for a comfortable home filled with sunshine, art and books. House Cat features fifty charismatic cats in the incredible spaces they allow their people to share – from a penthouse above Billionaires’ Row in New York to a Mexican hacienda-inspired home in Los Angeles, complete with nine feline residents.

With stunning photography accompanied by witty text, it is the ultimate pairing of enviable abodes and the confident cats who call them home.
