Cat breed book?

[CozyBreakfast]

Hey, everybody. I want to get my mom an illustrated cat breed book for Christmas and want to know if anybody has any recommendations. I don't want to spend a lot, but I do want a good quality one.

Thanks for the reply!

I'm looking for more of an encyclopedia of cat breeds.

The swede Ylva Stockelberg wrote a nice book on the theme; Vilken katt passar mig bäst? Ie What cat suits me best?
I dont know if there is an translation to english. If there is, try this.

Ylva wrote also several books of breeding of pedigree cats.

I did some hunting for you and although her books are available through various sources, I'm not seeing that the author has had any of them translated.

However, in the process of that, I did find this ;

Thanks

Just to clarify, I'm not looking for a book about breeding, just cat breeds.

Sorry about the link not working! This is in the description, seemed like it fit the bill:

All forty-one breeds officially recognized by the CFA are here; detailed descriptions and official standards outline their history, physical features, and personality, and include show grooming requirements and special handling tips, whether you're at home or in the ring.
