This whimsical collection of twenty cat-approved life lessons for living your purrfect life is accompanied by gorgeous, lushly detailed paintings.

Miss Marcella Mink and sixty-seven of her favorite feline friends live happily in her big house by the sea. But there was a time when Miss Mink was not so happy. When Miss Mink created her own business -- a feline-friendly cruise company for cat lovers and their furry companions -- she found she no longer had time or energy for herself or her friends. For advice she turned to her cats, who always seemed so happy, healthy, well-rounded, well-groomed and well-rested. It was not long before the Cat Countess was feeling shipshape again. Collected here are Miss Mink's twenty cat-approved lessons, from the benefits of a good grooming and an afternoon nap to valuable advice on friendship and diet.

PRAISE FOR Miss Mink: 

"Pretty and positive (and posh)." --Kirkus Reviews 

"Miss Mink: Life Lessons for a Cat Countess would have great appeal for fellow grown-up cat lovers as a gift book or coffee table book. But for a younger audience, Miss Mink: Life Lessons for a Cat Countess is a book well-suited to be shared reading experience between adults and children. Highly Recommended." --CM Magazine

“The amazing pictures were originally done in oil on canvas. Children will enjoy looking at the detailed but whimsical illustrations and reading about feline rules for a good life. Cat lovers of all ages will also love this book!” --Resource Links
