Summary: Wonderful Zen quotes and magnificent photographs
Review: I am not a cat lover, I must admit from the outset...but the photos and text of ZEN CAT are superb...I found the text meaningful and profound (a rarity in pet books, you may be sure)and highly recommend this little book to (a)all cat lovers, (b)all zen enthusiasts, (c)all lovers of fine photography, and (d) anyone looking for a "nice little gift".

Paul Coughlin is a really fine photographer, and Judith Adler writes clearly and with a deep sense of understanding of her subject...I BOUGHT THE BOOK FOR MYSELF, BUT AM BUYING MORE FOR GIGFS, You may decide to do the same after you read it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Meow in the Now
Review: Not a cat book per se. It is Zen through example. Deceptively simple (of course).

I laughed out loud several times in a Starbucks while reading it.

The pairing of photos and aphorisms is wonderful, some of which I still have yet to truly appreciate, I think.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: PURRfectly charming book!
Review: What a charming book! The photos and the quotes are perfect together, they truly capture the magic and mystery of cats...
There are so many saccharine sweet cat books I'd almost given up finding something like this -- a creative, sophisticated, artistic expression of the grace of felines. What luck, just in time for the holidays!

This book's helped me appreciate just how "Zen" my kitties really are... These photos are really spectacular, the photographer must have some real Zen patience to have gotten such great shots... every cat I've ever known just runs away when the camera comes out! And the quotes really make me ponder how much I've learned from the cats in my life. They really are great teachers, especially of patience. I'm surprised to keep finding so many layers in this little book, the quotes have such simple, yet profound meanings.

I also REALLY loved the fact this book wasn't cutsey and silly, but showed the many facets of cats, from their dignity and grace to their joyfulness and fun. They are truly magnificent creatures and this graceful book really captures their beauty.

I'm planning on giving it to all my cat-lover friends for the holidays, it'll be the "purrfect" gift. Darn, I wish my cat could read, she'd love it! This charming book is a must-have for every cat lover!
