Cat People To Judge In Art And Life by Nicole Tursaney it’s like a book of Memes about cats. Just the names of some of these cats had me lol ling like Katrick Swayze Meowli Cyrus The drawings are really cute the sayings are hilarious and although some could be cruder using bathroom humor that’s very few and not enough to deter anyone from reading this book. It is truly funny fantastic and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I think this book would make the perfect gift for any cat fan I myself would be over the moon if I got this as a gift. I want to thank the publisher and the author for my free ARC copy via NetGalley please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review

I recently purchased and very much enjoyed "Friends to Keep in Art and Life." When I saw the author had another book coming out, and it was about cats...I had to have it! I have this book pre-ordered and can't wait to receive it. While I was browsing Netgalley, I saw this book available and couldn't wait for a chance to read it. I had quite a few laugh-out-loud moments. I love the pieces of art that were picked for this book. This book would make an awesome gift for fellow cat lovers. Thanks to Netgalley, the author and publisher for the ARC!

Purrfect for when I need a hit of dopamine. Every page made me laugh. 100% will buy for my coffee table

I thought this was a lot of fun because it combined two of my favorite things, great artwork and cats. The captions were clever. This would be a great gift or coffee table book.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

This is a perfect living room or vet office book for cat and art lovers alike. The pairing of funny quotes and images was often clever and worth a chuckle. However, I think this could be a one and done read.

I can see myself purchasing this for my grandfather-whom loves cats dearly- and him enjoying it many reads through.

I would say that 95 percent of the art styles and portraits were European paintings from the 1700-1800s. I would have loved to see some ancient or 20th and 21st century depictions of cats and their owners. Perhaps some photography would be cool too.

I received this book from Net Galley/publisher in exchange for an honest review of my opinion.

I saw "cat lady" in the description and immediately had to pick it up. As someone who currently has 5 house cats, I thought this would be exactly up my alley. It has cats, it has quips, it has art. However, the actual "humor" fell short for me. I think this is geared more toward Gen X or Boomer cat lovers. It wasn't bad, just nothing original. There wasn't a single line that I had never heard before, and none of it garnered even a huff of air or chuckle from me. Many of the lines felt out of place, or even forced in relation to the chosen paintings they were narrating. I don't think I would reccommend this to anyone under the age of 40, or anyone who's been exposed to the internet's oversaturation of cat related humor.

Cat People to Judge in Art and Life
by Nicole Tersigni

#NetGalley

2/5 stars

Famous artworks with silly captions depicting human and feline thoughts. Cute.

Thank you for the EArc NetGalley and Chronicle. I adore this line of books and I am so impressed with how many timeless works of art the author finds that fit the narrative. This brings together cats, art and humor into one space that reads quickly but is very enjoyable.

I love cats, I love art, and I loved this little humor book. This would make a perfect gift for your favorite cat person. As an art lover, I loved all of the cat-featuring artworks and appreciated the index of art credits at the end. The art and text pairings are hilarious and inventive.

There are some good pictures with some good dialogues. Then there are some that are okay. Finally, there are some that maybe should have just let the picture do the speakinf as they're a stretch to be amusing.

This book takes classic works of art and adds in snarky and humourous human and cat captions. The author did an amazing job matching the artwork to the captions. There were several that were very funny and some that I didn't quite relate to personally. That being said, there's something for every cat owner in this book that would leave them snickering.

This book stood out to me immediately because I consider myself a professional cat lady! So there isn't a world where I would skip out on a HILARIOUS! I will definitely be buying copies for all my friends and family in September when this is published! I absolutely LOVED this!

Kudos to the author for the amount of research put in to find so many examples of cats in art, primarily European paintings. The imagined conversations between owner and cat on each page were amusing, and some might feel very relatable for cat owners.

I think that the book could have been enhanced by including humorous commentary on the included paintings. Some of them are real head scratchers, and I would have loved if the author had revealed more of the actual history and not only imagined conversations.

This book will certainly be a well-received gift for cat owners of a certain ilk.

This was so cute! It made me laugh out loud multiple times. I think I’ve said some of these things to my cats… (and they’ve probably thought some of the replies back.)

Such a hilariously adorable quick read! I never realized just how many cats are in classic art till now. The sarcasm/humor was purrfect and not over the top. This would be a perfect gift for any cat lover!

As a cat person, I can appreciate the humor that is Cat People to Judge in Art and Life.

From the introduction you can tell Nicole Tersigni is a cat person. Anyone who is can relate.

Some of the works were laugh out loud funny, others got a good chuckle, and a few missed the mark (for me) but I can appreciate the sentiment.

Perfect gift for a cat lover in your life.

Thank you NetGalley for an advanced cope of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Excuse me while I go decorate my house exclusively with cat Art. I loved the collection of Art and thought the captions were funny and relatable.

This was a hilarious little book. I just loved the sarcasm and humor, mixed with cat art. It gave me a lot of chuckles and LOL moments.
Great book for (adults) who love cats, art and snark!

For cat lovers and classic art lovers – even more so if you are both. Nicole Tersigni amusingly adds imagined cat commentary to classic artwork, and she perfectly captures cat attitude on every page. For me, this book was not as laugh-out-loud funny as other reviews suggested it would be. Most of the pages I found myself nodding and smiling [and thinking: yes, that’s very true!] with an occasional audible chuckle. I read this through once and enjoyed the commentary; then I read it a second time to really appreciate the artwork. I read this as an e-ARC and I believe I would have enjoyed the hard cover version of this book much more. A small screen is just not a good medium for consuming art. And that is why I would absolutely buy a physical copy as a gift for any cat owner/lover. It’s a quick, amusing read, and it’s fun to see (and realize) how often cats show up in classic artwork.
My thanks to Nicole Terisgni, NetGalley and Chronicle Books, for the opportunity to read an advance copy of this book.

This was a very quick read through and honestly not my cup of tea. I am a dedicated cat mom and I really didn’t like the pictures and the jokes, although accurate, to a cat person, were not funny to me. Some others may enjoy the era photos.
