Night Cats: A Picture Book

by Pippa Pralen

When the local animal shelter could not help, the author begins to feed a group of hungry feral cats. She soon is charmed by these quirky, intelligent cats. Whimsical with beautiful images, she imagines their lives when she does not see they dance and go to discos, take ski vacations, open pizzerias and become astronauts. Poignant, sweet and funny. For children and cat lovers. (Part of the sales proceeds will help feed these cats.)

A Fever-Dream of Possibilities

Night Cats caught my attention with the gorgeous cover and matching title.

The book explores rather indirectly the author's feeding of some ferals. Although the reader is told this is at night, the majority of stock photos have the cats during the day and then follows up with what are these cats doing during the day when the author doesn't see them.

This then leads to a collage of stock photos with cats doing silly things with human props and poises. Combined with the non-photographic illustrations, it made for a uniquely illustrated book if any.

All in all it was decent but not what I was expecting for in a book thus titled.

an absolutely beautiful cat book

I love Night Cats: A Picture Book and while it’s probably for children, adults will enjoy it too. I’m 61 and as I said, I love this book.
The author, Pippa Pralen, has beautiful cat photos and cute drawings of cats. She talks about the outdoor cats she feeds after hearing a cat cry and wonders what they do during the day. Going to the beach, taking a vacation, one cat is looking out the window of an airplane. What they could be. One is a chef, another has a pizzeria and others. Just a sweet book. It made me smile.
Pippa did a fantastic job writing Night Cats: A Picture Book. Please check it out. For a little one or yourself.

This is the story of cats that are homeless. One day when the author left a restaurant she saw a hungry cat and decided to feed it. That was the beginning of her adventure. I loved this book because of the humorous pictures. At the end she has pictures of the cats she takes care of. I could understand. We inherited five semi-feral cats from a gentleman across the street. He had been feeding them and took them to the vet to be fixed. When he passed he left them to us in his will. We still have four of them. I couldn’t imagine not helping them.
