Our cat’s surprising reaction to a book about cats!

We found this book in a Little Free Library, and were surprised by Starfire’s reaction when she encountered it. We guessed that at some point in its past, the book had been exposed to catnip.

(Not uncharacteristic, given the contents of the book, chock full of insights into cat behavior. (The book is CatWise by Pam Johnson-Bennett). I could well imagine that before the book found its way into the Little Free Library, it had been in a home with a cat, or cats, who had imbibed catnip on occasion.)

I originally recorded this footage in April 2021. I’ve been working to develop my abilities as a videographer and had reached a point where I could remove the original audio (in Screencastify) and add a bouncy musical track (in Canva).
