A global portrait of cat culture and welfare

Cats of the World pairs Hannah Shaw’s kitten-welfare work with Andrew Marttila’s photography in a travel-based look at cats across thirty countries. The book connects everyday encounters with felines to the local places and communities around them, from English pubs and cathedrals to Chilean markets and hillsides. Its scope extends beyond visual cat appreciation: the authors also explore how different cultures live with cats and approach feline welfare. With hundreds of photographs and location-specific stories, it frames cats as both familiar companions and a lens on distinct local environments.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Cat enthusiasts interested in feline life beyond their own community
  • Travel and photography book readers
  • Readers interested in cat welfare and care education
