Medieval Cats - Review


Author: Catherine Nappington
Genre: Nonfiction
Format: eBook
Pages: 208

A huge thank you to Net Galley and Ten Speed Press for a chance to read this early, Medieval Cats: Claws, Paws, and Kitties of Yore hits shelves on March 4, 2025!

Listen this year I've had a weird fixation on the Medieval era, this is the third book based around (or in) the Medieval era. No, I do know why. Just that one book was a weird sci-fi book that sounded as good as was, and then the other two (Medival Cats included) were hilarious nonfiction. So there was no real thought when I requested this book through NetGalley other than, I love weird little drawings of Medieval Cats!

It was the best decision ever because this was an absolute delight. I cannot wait until March to add it to my shelves. I thoroughly enjoyed my afternoon with this book.

When I first looked at Medieval Cats, I thought it was going to be a small, fun, little coffee table book that made fun of the fact that no one in Medieval times could draw cats. Which it was, Catherine had some hilarious footnotes attached to every single piece of artwork she used with medieval cats on them. What I didn't realize I was going to get was so many cat facts included inside the book, along with all the literary works that included cats, and some not-so-fun facts about cats as well.

Being a cat in Medieval Tims, not always a good time.

This was an absolute delight to read, and you can tell the author enjoyed putting it together. It was the perfect book read, curled up in bed with my own cat, after work. Without a doubt, I'll be adding to my collection on release day (March 4, 2025)! So if you're a cat lady like me, get this one added to your 2025 TBR, and if you have a cat lady in your life, well this is the perfect little gift for them! It was so much fun!






HAPPY READING!!
