Coffee House Press Cat Is Art Spelled Wrong
Book Synopsis"Coffee House Press, a major nonprofit publisher, recently launched a Kickstarter for a book examining the Internet's cat video fetish. The book, if the Kickstarter campaign reaches its $25,000 goal, will be titled Cat is Art Spelled Wrong, and examine themes like what makes something art, whether art is good or bad, and how taste develops. In other words, cat videos can actually be ...pretty serious."-The Washington Post "Coffee House Press one-ups all boring Kickstarter campaigns with Catstarter, a campaign to fund a book on cat videos."-The Millions "Coffee House Press's upcoming book, titled Cat is Art Spelled Wrong, takes the opportunity to examine a seemingly irrelevant subject from new perspectives-from 'the line is between reality/self on the internet' to 'how cat videos demonstrate either that nothing matters, or that any art matters if anyone thinks it does.' Thus, it's an earnest attempt to uncover more about human nature-especially in today's internet-driven world." -Cool Hunting Fifteen writers, all addressing not just our fascination with cat videos, but also how we decide what is good or bad art, or art at all; how taste develops, how that can change, and why we love or hate something. It's about people and technology and just what it is about cats that makes them the internet's cutest despots. Contributors include: Sasha Archibald, Will Braden, Stephen Burt, Maria Bustillos, David Carr, Matthea Harvey, Alexis Madrigal, Joanne McNeil, Ander Monson, Kevin Nguyen, Elena Passarello, Jillian Steinhauer, Sarah Schultz, and Carl Wilson.Trade Review"Cat Is Art Spelled Wrong is a playful and unpredictable elevator ride between high and low, between Derrida and Grumpy Cat, between Baudrillard and a feline dressed as a shark that likes to ride a vacuum cleaner... The magic of Cat Is Art Spelled Wrong is that its audience is all-inclusive... Enjoying the book is in no way contingent upon an art background or owning a cat."--Kirkus "The essays have an eclectic and joyful appeal ... Cat lovers will adore these creative reflections on the frivolity and the necessity of pets and the Web videos many believe to be "the ice cream of moving imagery."--Kirkus "This clever collection is highly recommended for people who watch cat videos, which is apparently nearly everyone."--Publishers Weekly "Readers should expect to find more awe than "aw" in this book, a shift that signals Coffee House Books has maintained the line of inquiry first embarked upon by the Walker Art Center and the lineage of artists whose works precipitated the event in the first place. In this collection, the focus rightly returns to the ancient impulse to pay cat obeisance and the realization that this obeisance (which is sometimes called art) has been sustained for nearly all of the Holocene."--The Rumpus "There's something perverse about making a traditional paper book about Internet ephemera ... [and] it's precisely this kind of ambivalent-yet-appealing perversity that makes the anthology "Cat Is Art Spelled Wrong," an entire book of essays dedicated to cat videos, such a delight."--Chicago Tribune "Cats have a hold on us--even those of us who do not consider ourselves a "cat person." And now cat videos do too. All it takes is a click of a mouse, or, in the case of Cat Is Art Spelled Wrong, the turn of a page, to find out why."--AV Club "Fourteen writers take on perhaps the most important cultural issue of our time: figure out what we're talking about when we're talking about cat videos."--New York Magazine "It's not just about cats, it's about this internet phenomena and what it says about humanity. The pieces range from philosophical to deeply personal stories... If you're interested in internet culture, don't miss this book."--BookRiot "14 funny, fascinating essays by noted writers."--Star Tribune "Contributors provide surprising insights about what our impulse to watch YouTube clips of felines says about them and us."--The Week "What's behind the cat video phenomenon? Local publisher Coffee House Press attempts to answer that question in the new book, Cat Is Art Spelled Wrong."--Minnesota Public Radio "The festival inspired a forthcoming collection of essays, Cat Is Art Spelled Wrong, with references to Georg Hegel, Immanuel Kant and, naturellement, semiotician Jacques Derrida--diffident cats tending to bring out the French in admirers."--Washington Post "With [this] new book, Minneapolis publisher makes the case that cat videos are a form of, yes, art"--MinnPost "Por que nos fascinan los videos de gatitos en internet"--El Confidencial(Spain) "Those upset by the [outcome of the CatVidFest contest] need only to read Maria Bustillos's 'Hope Is the Thing with Fur,' her contribution to the Coffee House Press cat video essay collection, Cat Is Art Spelled Wrong. She writes: 'Cat videos are the crystallization of all that human beings love about cats, the crux of which is centered in the fact that cats are both beautiful and absurd.'"--City Pages "Finally, I get to Write About Cats"--Bookmobile Blog "A lot of fun and one to store away for the holidays for someone who loves cat videos."--BookRiotTable of ContentsIntroduction: Sarah Schultz and Katie Hill Feline Darlings & the Anti-Cute: Sasha Archibald Watching Cat Videos Together: Will Braden Prologomena to Any Future Poetics of the Cat Video: Stephen Burt Title TK: Maria Bustillos Cats: David Carr Walls Divide Humans and Their Cats from Other Humans but Cat Videos Are Our Digital Cat Doors, Peepholes into a Great Cross-species Love: Matthea Harvey Title TK: Rhonda Lierberman Sparrow Martinez: Alexis Madrigal Finding Half-Cat: Joanne McNeil Title TK: Ander Monson Title TK: Kevin Nguyen Jeoffy (Felis catus): Elena Passarello The Nine Lives of Cat Videos: Jillian Steinhauer Title TK: Carl Wilson

Rowman & Littlefield The Maine Coon Cat
Book SynopsisThe Maine Coon is arguably the most popular breed of cat in the United States, and it is certainly the largest, with some males weighing nearly 20 pounds. This book provides an informative and fun look at America’s favorite feline, exploring the history and origins of the breed, traits and characteristics, interviews with breeders and owners, and some practical how-to advice. Filled with color photographs and sidebars of pertinent information, this is the perfect book for cat lovers.Trade ReviewFeaturing striking, full color photography on almost every page, The Maine Coon Cat is a delightful introduction to the second most popular breed of cat (after Persians). Chapters reconstruct the little-known history of this heavyset feline, stories of rescuing or living with Maine Coons, Maine Coons in literature, tips for caring for a Maine Coon, and perhaps most importantly, how to ensure that one's prospective pet comes from a responsible, registered breeder who cares about the animals, and not a "backyard breeder" who eschews animal welfare for a quick profit. "Noting where the kittens are being raised is important. If they are housed in a part of the house with only the mother cat, this would sound an alarm for proper socialization. Also, if there are more than two or three litters at one time, it might be more of a kitten mill than a quality breeder who is going to devote a lot of time to their cats." Highly recommended, especially for casual cat fanciers! * Midwest Book Review *

Purdue University Press My One-Eyed, Three-Legged Therapist: How My Cat
Book SynopsisMy One-Eyed, Three-Legged Therapist: How My Cat Clio Saved Me is the story of how an adorable, spunky, gray-and-white kitten helped the author regain the courage to face life's challenges and realize that none of us is truly alone. Born into poverty, losing her dad at age seven, and targeted by bullies, Kathy turned to pets for unconditional love and acceptance. A difficult childhood led to an abusive marriage, but things changed on her fortieth birthday when her staff at the organization where she worked gave her an extraordinary cat named Clio. The runt of the litter, a two-time cancer survivor, and a special needs cat, Clio nevertheless had an incredible will to live full tilt. This intrepid feline knew no fear and displayed unlimited self-confidence. She overcame not one, but two, disabilities. By watching Clio thrive despite what life threw at her, Kathy was able to put her own life in perspective by learning to accept the past, embrace the present, and look forward to the future.

The Experiment LLC The Handbook for a Happy Cat
Book SynopsisOne reason cats fascinate us is that they are so unlike us: Their ears, more than eyes, show their feelings. On our laps, they are purring lovebugs; on the prowl, they are fearsome apex predators - with territorial instincts to match. This makes it hard for us humans to understand our cats as well as we love them. Thank goodness feline behaviorist Liesbeth Puts is here to help! - 120 colour photos throughout set this ahead of the competition - Abundant subheads steer readers to the answers they seek (“Can I convert an outside cat to inside?”) - Chapters on bonding and rivalry among cats, stopping problem behaviors, surefire toys and games, when to see the vet, caring for older cats, and more!
