Kittenish #SundaySelfies

Hey everybody, it's Truffles! Today in lieu of a Sunday Selfie of moi, Mommy and I wanted to tell you about a fantastic new book of cat selfies called "Kittenish". It was put together by Gwen Cooper, Homer the Blind Wonder Cat’s human, and 100% of the proceeds are going towards animal rescue in Nepal following the devastating earthquake they suffered in April.

We already have our copy, and we're loving the 200+ pages of adorable kitty selfies. Purchasing information can be found here.


A book designed by selfless cats to raise money for those in need.

Photos of cats are everywhere—but how many of those photos were taken by the cats themselves?

Behold "Kittenish"—a send-up of Kim Kardashian’s bestselling selfies book, "Selfish"—featuring hundreds of photos of cats, by cats. The cats in "Kittenish" have captured themselves at their most playful, affectionate, and haphazard moments, and the result is an unforgettable collection that’s equal parts hilarious and heart-tugging. There’s even a black-page section for the “sexy selfies.” (Warning: Very few cats consented to wear costumes for "Kittenish," so most of these selfies are nudes.)

100% OF THE PROCEEDS FROM "KITTENISH" WILL GO TO HUMANE SOCIETY INTERNATIONAL, TO ASSIST THEIR ONGOING ANIMAL-RESCUE EFFORTS IN NEPAL. The minimum price for "Kittenish" is $3.99, but you’re free to give more than that if you’d like.

Brought to you by Gwen Cooper, the bestselling author of "Homer’s Odyssey: A Fearless Feline Tale," and Homer’s Heroes—Homer the Blind Wonder Cat’s community of rescuers and “furiends”—"Kittenish" will bring hours of joy to animal lovers, and life-saving aid to animals in need.
