About this book
The term ';Cat Lady' can evoke the image of an unfashionable, unkempt, and slightly unhinged spinster hoarding multiple cats. Cat Lady Chic serves as the antidote to this unflattering point of view, celebrating the Cat Lady with a compilation of artful, playful, and sophisticated images of some of the most renowned, beautiful, and accomplished women in modern history with the cats they love.The volume features a sharp, funny introductory essay on the Cat Lady conundrum along with scores of photographs of felines paired with famous feline fans across a spectrum of backgrounds, including figures such as Audrey Hepburn, Georgia O'Keeffe, Diana Ross, Marilyn Monroe, Zelda Fitzgerald, Lana Del Rey, Lauren Bacall, Joan Jett, Elizabeth Taylor, Grace Kelly, and more.

“YOU KNOW THOSE DAYS WHEN
YOU GET THE MEAN REDS? . . .
IF I COULD FIND A REAL-LIFE PLACE
THAT MADE ME FEEL LIKE TIFFANY’S,
THEN I’D BUY SOME FURNITURE
AND GIVE THE CAT A NAME.”
