Pugs are now incredibly popular little doggies, and play by their own set of rules. Ugly? No! When you want them to sit, they stand; when you want them to stay, they go; and when you want them to stop eating that unidentified item on the floor, well... Traditional schools of canine thought put this behaviour down to a stubborn refusal to be trained that's inherent in the bred. Not so. This behaviour is, in fact, down to an ancient set of rules, passed down from pug generation to pug generation. A Pug's Guide to Etiquette attempts to explain these rules, thereby advancing pug-human relations to hitherto unprecedented heights. 18.6 x 12cm, 64 pages.

Probably this is designed for children. It is published in collaboration with Historic Royal Palace, and we learn about devoted dogs like Queen Mary II's lapdogs and Queen Victoria's six dogs being the first ever to enter the Crufts Dog Show in 1891, fluffy and frightening cats like Queen Victoria's Persians, two of which Flypie and White Heather outlived her. There are chattering parrots and singing birds, popular royal companions and the story that Princess Alexandra taught her cockatoo to say 'God save the Queen!' England's first grizzly bear and polar bear both lived at the Tower of London. Animals have often been given to the royal family and our late Queen Elizabeth received an elephant, and the people of Northern Australia gave Prince George a baby crocodile even before he was born. There are tales of revolting rats, super-sized spiders and mischievous moles in the Palace Pets. With colourful pop-up illustrations a short picture book for ages 6 and up.

From the Daily Telegraph's Pet Agony Aunt, Celia Haddon is a reputed lover and worshipper of cats with a number of anthologies in their honour. Here her bestselling book is almost an instruction manual for cats on how to deal with their bumbling humans. 'They force their attention on us. This inter-species harassment is abuse. Walk away from it with dignity.' Cats should rub their hair onto every surface in their home to help their humans deal with the fact that they are sadly handicapped by being almost hairless. 'Most humans would starve in the wild. They can't mouse.' 'They ruin meat. Only a small minority, the most sophisticated humans, have the good taste to eat it raw like we do.' A teeny 96 page softback gift book. Illus.

An impossibly gorgeous coffee table book we have fallen in love with! Eleven entranced kittens, a seeming impossible feat, white, grey, black, brindle and ginger are captured on the opening double page spread. On a winter's night in 1949 in New York City, young marketing student and budding photographer Walter Chandoha spotted a stray kitten in the snow, bundled it into his coat, and brought it home. Little did he know he had just met the muse that would determine the course of his life. Chandoha turned his lens on his new feline friend - which he named Loco - and was so inspired by the results that he started photographing kittens from a local shelter. These images marked the start of an extraordinary career that would span seven decades. Long before the Internet and #catsofinstagram, Chandoha was enrapturing the public with his fuzzy subjects. From advertisements for Puss 'n Boots cat food to greetings cards, jigsaw puzzles to pet-food packaging, his images combined his signature glamorous lighting to rim the head and ears, which made each cat's fur stand out in sharp relief. This technique would define the visual vocabulary of animal portraiture for generations and inspire such masters as Andy Warhol, who took cues from Chandoha's charming portraits in his illustrated cat book. Four adorable Siamese kittens peep from a basket (1957), cats leap from this genre-defining artist's archives, featuring hundreds of close-ups and colour studio and environmental portraits, black and white street photography like the stray cat at Rome's Coliseum 1981, images from vintage cat shows, tender pictures that combine his children with cats, barn cats, family pets, and more against stunning scenery. This remarkable photographer passed away at the age of 98 in 2019. Reuel Golden is the former editor of the British Journal of Photography and the Photography editor at TASCHEN. 14 x 19.5 cm, 192 pages.
