The superstar cat-loving duo will be in conversation with local animal rescuer Susan Hicks. An audience Q&A and book signing will follow the presentation. This is a TICKETED EVENT.

From England’s charmingly worn pubs and candle-lit cathedrals, Greece’s sunset-stained cliffs and white-washed homes, Kuwait’s sandy beaches and glittering skyline, South Africa’s bustling streets and lush mountains, and so many places in between, Cats of the World is a celebration of cats in their every form– in settings magical and mundane– and an enlightening exploration of what they mean to the people who love them most.
