Tickets include a copy of the book and a companion seat if requested. About the Book: Husband and wife team Hannah Shaw (Kitten Lady) and Andrew Marttila have made cats their lives’ work: they rescue and rehabilitate kittens, educate people on cat and neonatal kitten care, and capture our feline friends’ unique personalities through writing and photography. Now, in the project of their dreams, they’ve taken their passion for cats global. In Cats of the World, Shaw and Martilla journey across 25 countries to explore cat culture around the globe, documenting their travels with stunning photos and interviews with cat lovers from each country. 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.
