Catnip is a magazine for a unique breed of cat people from the makers of Broccoli, it paws at the paradoxes of a creature that embodies playfulness and repose, wildness and domesticity, the every day and the absurd. With catlike curiosity and feline flair, we go to the kittiest corners of the world to scratch the surface of cat culture and uncover the many reasons why cats enchant us.

Description
Catnip returns! Broccoli’s all-time best-selling magazine is back, and Volume 2 is just as catty and collectible as Volume 1. This fresh assemblage of stories, art, and reporting celebrating cats and their people will charm anyone who has ever stopped to pat a friendly stray, snuck off to commune with a friend’s felines, or oohed and ahhed over a shop cat.
Inside: Ursula K. Le Guin sees the world through a kitten’s eyes, Claire L. Evans digs into why we want to talk to cats, Lauren Cochrane and Rebecca Thomas tail the working cats of London, and Kathryn Hughes explores Louis Wain’s cat obsession. Plus: Lost cat posters with happy endings, the world’s foremost collector of Siamese cat objets, the true story behind Why Cats Paint, online cat dialects, ancient Chinese cat contracts, the mysteries of toe beans, how cats get their names, cryptid beasts, Antarctic feline explorers, a trashy “tabbyloid,” and much more.
