What is Cattitude? Teach Kids About Cats!

Some of our favourite books feature animals. Kids love to read about stuff they can relate to and pets or animals are so much fun to incorporate into their lives. Many families have cats and dogs for pets so reading books about them just increases their fondness for them. And if they don’t have pets at home it’s nice for them to begin a journey with them even if it’s simply through literature.

Cats are a huge love of my life so any chance I get to enjoy a cat related story I will jump on it! This amazing little book is all about why cats behave the way they do and why we should love them even when we think they are being rude or giving attitude! It’s just a little Catittitude. 

This adorable book opens up the readers to the life and personality traits of the house cat. Why does the cat hide? Why is the cat wrecking the curtains? Why is the cat always sneaking around the house and scaring everyone? All of these questions and more are answered by adorable family illustrations that have a cat for a pet. 

Do you know why the cat is so crazy? Why do they like to do such strange things? Find out with Cattitude! 

More about the book:

Cleo is a cat with an attitude—and she’s not afraid to show it! This quirky, humorous story follows the young narrator as they recount Cleo’s everyday activities. Whenever friends come over, Cleo leaves the room without saying hello. She likes to dig on the furniture, which earns her a scolding from Mom, and she loves to sit in Dad’s favorite chair in the living room. When the family is watching a movie, Cleo manages to step on the remote and change the channel by accident, and when she goes outside, Cleo loves to feel the sunshine on her fur…before she chases the birds and mice. And through it all, the narrator loves Cleo exactly the way she is.
