Hannah “Kitten Lady” Shaw and professional cat photographer Andrew Marttila journey to thirty countries to bring you hundreds of photos and stories of cats from every corner of the world.
Wife and husband team Hannah Shaw and Andrew Marttila have made cats their lives' work: they rescue and rehabilitate neonatal kittens, educate the public on cat and kitten care, and capture our feline friends' unique personalities through writing and photography.
Now, in the project of their dreams, they've taken their passion for cats global. In Cats of the World, Shaw and Marttila travel across thirty countries to explore feline welfare and cat culture around the globe, documenting their travels with stunning photos and stories from each location.
Journey to England's charming pubs and candle-lit cathedrals, Chile’s vibrant produce markets and colorful hillsides, Türkiye’s spice bazaars and ancient ruins, South Africa's bustling streets and lush mountains, and so many places in between with Shaw and Marttila as they learn from cats—and the people who love them most—that compassion is truly a universal language.

      Shaw, a.k.a. Kitten Lady (Tiny, but Mighty), and her husband, professional photographer Andrew Marttila (Shop Cats of New York), traveled to 31 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North and South America in search of cats in their habitats. The result reads like a travelogue, describing the cities and countries they visited, providing some history of the locations, and, through many interviews, offering the perspectives of the people there on their relationship to cats. Also included are conversations with local animal rescuers in each location, with a focus on how they are working to reduce the number of homeless cats. Locations include pubs, countryside spots, seaports, historic centers, and tourist locations; in all places, the cat populations rules. VERDICT An engaging text accompanied by beautiful photographs in which the wonderful settings are secondary to the multitude of cats to swoon over. Best for animal lovers and supporters. --Jacqueline Parascandola
