Back when my first book came out, somehow I got the idea that it would be excellent to force my cats to pose with copies of it. A big box of copies of this new book came yesterday (which means it’s been released from the warehouse which = on sale very soon), so in the interest of consistency, I repeated the exercise with varying degrees of success.
Jammer (I call him “Grandpa”) was the first victim and does look a bit startled. However, the book is doing a great job of covering up his big gut.
Esperanza is doing her best “smile with your eyes” Tyra Banks pose here.She is the alpha cat but let’s put her in the middle for once.
YoYo (her real name is Yosarian, which my late mother in law gave her thinking she was male) is auditioning for a Nike ad here. Dig the tail action.
