Internet meme meets classical art in Svetlana Petrova’s brilliant Fat Cat Art. Featuring her twenty-two-pound, ginger-colored cat Zarathustra superimposed onto some of the greatest artworks of all time, Petrova’s paintings are an Internet sensation. Now fans will have the ultimate full-color collection of her work, including several never-before-seen pieces, to savor for themselves or to give as a gift to fellow cat lovers.

This book is fantastic!  I love the way Petrova incorporates Zarathustra, her ginormous ginger tabby, into the famous works of art.  And Zarathustra's commentary joins all of the 'true' paintings with all of the snark you'd expect from a cat.  This is definitely a book I'm thrilled to add to my collection of cat-centric books.
