100 Cats Who Changed Civilization

History's Most Influential Felines




THE ULTIMATE GIFT FOR CAT LOVERS: Discover 100 illustrated and unbelievably true tales of the remarkable felines who made their mark on science, history, art, government, and religion.
 
If you don’t believe that one cat has the power to alter civilization, then you’ve obviously never heard of Tibbles, the cat who single-handedly wiped out an entire species. Or Ahmedabad, a Siamese kitten who sparked riots throughout Pakistan. Or Snowball, the cat who helped to convict dozens of murderers and criminals. Or Felix, the first cat to explore outer space . . . 
 
These are just four of the 100 Cats Who Changed Civilization, and this book honors their extraordinary contributions to science, history, art, government, religion, and more. Here, you’ll also meet cats who:
 
• Filed a lawsuit
• Were slapped with a restraining order
• Inspired great works of literature and classical music
• Telephoned the police to save the life of their owner
 
A perfect gift for cat moms and dads, these beautifully illustrated true stories are a tribute to the intelligence, bravery, and loving nature of cats all over the world.
