Felines of New York
Felines of New York: A Glimpse Into the Lives of New York's Feline Inhabitants | Jim Tews
5 posts | 2 read | 1 to read
Featuring more than 100 photos and quotes from cats in Americas most glamorous city, Felines of New York exposes the furry underbelly of New York Citys most glamorous, self-important residents.Where the humans of New York are accomplished, interesting, thoughtful, creative, and even sometimes tragic figures, the cats are simply cats. They do not stand in line for brunch, or have season tickets to the Met, or go indoor-rock climbing in Brooklyn. They do not shop at thrift stores or nibble finger sandwiches at the Russian Tea Room. And they certainly do not give a flying f*ck about the Yankees. No, the felines of New York bathe, purr, bask languidly in the sun, and occasionally cast baleful glances at the humans who provide them food and shelter. They are proof that behind every New Yorker, there lays a cat just waiting to destroy their IKEA futon and then eat their faces off when they die.

"When I was younger, a friend and I chased down this bird. We didn't hurt it, but we scared it pretty bad. My friend was like, 'Kill it!' but I just couldn't. That's when I realized I was a little more sensitive than most cats. I've killed bugs, though. I'll ruin a bug's day without a second thought. Fuck bugs."

-- Skip, Staten Island ??? pretty much sums up my feelings about bugs

One glance at this book makes me smile! I've not read a single word, but the pictures are enough to ring out exclamations of, "So cute!" and "How adorable!" #cheerful #jubilantjuly

Mehso-so

When acquisitions got this in, half the collection development staff stopped to read it. Cute, but the stories aren't like Humans of New York so it kind of felt cheap.

jenna_friebel I love their Facebook posts, but yea I don't see it being super successful as a full book. I guess maybe a coffee table book for some quick laughs? 9y
