Description
|
|
|
|
As they travel the world, National Geographic photographers often encounter cats slinking, sauntering, or springing into the camera frame. This charmingly feline habit is well documented here in 60 captioned color photos and archival images—some filling two pages. Several are iconic pictures, including Ronald Cohen's 1984 portrait of Koko, the gorilla who uses American Sign Language, cuddling her kitten All Ball, and Karen Kuehn's photo of a ballerina en pointe with a Russian blue kitten at her feet. Here too, a white cat dozes in Shakespeare's garden, a tabby mother nurses her kittens warily in Istanbul, and a New York City patrolman rescues a stranded feline atop a pole in a 1937 photo.
