Description

Why spend one life worrying . . . when you could spend nine lives napping?

Take it from artist Jamie Shelman’s wry and furry felines: Cats work reasonable hours (zero), love wisely (from a distance), and live boldly (until someone starts vacuuming). Don’t go without these 100 sage lessons:

Be especially attentive to the one person who doesn’t like you.
Get away with murder by looking cute.
Ignore anyone who doesn’t worship you.
Be pleased with your achievements, however small.
The best solution to a problem is a nap.

Live better—live like your cat!
