Katzen hingegen verfügen über eine Vielzahl von Superkräften: Sie haben eingebaute Nachtsichtgeräte, ihr Schnurren kann Blutdruck senken, sie können schneller rennen als der 100-Meter-Weltrekordler und sie können Käfer und Spinnen fressen. Jede Katze ist ein kleiner Batman. "Warum meine Katze beeindruckender ist als dein Baby" ist eine Sammlung von Comics über Katzen, Babys, Hunde, Laser, Selfies, Liebe und Tauben.
