Cockatiels for Two : A Book of Cat Cartoons
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Why do we put up with our finicky felines? They won't pull a sled, lead the blind, bite burglars, or fetch the paper. But love them we do, and in this collection of feline funnies, New Yorker cartoonist Leo Cullum helps us understand why.
Following on the success of his two previous collections of animal cartoons, Cockatiels for Two investigates the truth beneath the cat's inscrutable exterior. Languid elegance or sheer laziness? Do they return our love, or are they merely seeking easy food and a warm body? Cullum addresses all this and more in 113 delightful cartoons. "I'm expected for dinner around seven," says one cat to another. "Other than that I'm completely free." A political cat declares, "I'm totally bipartisan. I eat as many birds as I do mice." And, getting at perhaps the feline's true essence, Rene Decat philosophizes, "I purr therefore I am." An ideal gift for cat owners, cat lovers, and anyone whose path has been crossed by a black cat, this entertaining volume will leave readers meowing for more. AUTHOR BIO: Leo Cullum, a recently retired commercial airline pilot, has published hundreds of cartoons in The New Yorker, Barron's, the Harvard Business Review, and many other publications. His work has been exhibited at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. Cullum lives in Malibu, California.
