A gorgeously photographed gift book all about cats and the beautiful interiors of their homes.

The latest book from acclaimed interiors photographer Rachael Smith is a stunning exploration of some of the quirkiest and most beautiful English homes—and the cats that rule them. Whenever Rachael is commissioned to photograph an interior, her first question is always “Is there a cat?,” and if the answer is yes, the follow-up comes, “Can I photograph that too?”

Alongside these original photographs are biographies of the cats, heartwarming anecdotes, and gently humorous stories describing their distinctive quirks and offering a glimpse into the special bond between cat and owner.
