Stuff on My Cat: The Book by Chronicle Books

Genre: Humor

Honors: None Found


Review: Think of the most silly and absurd things you can put on your cat and then take a picture.  Now you will understand this book's motto, "Stuff + Cats= Awesome".  Originally this idea started out as a hilarious website where people would post random pictures of the stuff they like to pile on their cats, and it was some pretty random and weird stuff.  This wordless book is the more refined version of the website and it includes a lot of cats dressed up in silly outfits and cats posed in human-like situations. 

Opinion:  As a fan of the silly website, this book was disappointing.  It felt very posed and edited.  The book loses the raw and just plain randomness of the website.  I didn't find it that funny, though, a few were great, no "laugh-out-louds" in this book. 

Ideas: Display this book with I Can Haz Cheezburger, another silly cat book for people that like cats and have a weird sense of humor like me.
