Revised and updated! It’s been almost 10 years since popular cat blogger Tamar Arslanian and renowned cat photographer Andrew Marttila’s book Shop Cats of New York captured the city’s deeply loved and well-cared-for felines reigning over their urban kingdoms. In the years since, some of the featured shops shuttered their doors or moved to new spaces while others said goodbye to their beloved shop cats or welcomed new furry faces. This much anticipated revised and expanded edition introduces 45 of New York’s finest cats, 20 of whom are brand-new to this edition and all with extraordinary stories to tell. These fabulous felines inhabit New York City’s most legendary and coziest spots-the Algonquin Hotel, a whiskey distillery, bookstores, bodegas and grocery stores, firehouses, a rubber stamp store, an art supplies store, and everything in between. True New Yorkers-masters of people watching-they perch on wine crates, piles of books, and a classic hotel countertop, taking in the activity around them, judging their peers, and thrilling their enthusiastic admirers.
