/>If you humans insist on doing your stitchy hobby rather than give us your full attention, the very least you could do is make it about us cats. A book in our honour might suffice.

Luckily for you Cross stitch with Cattitude is here, a book packed with 20 fresh, sassy and snarky designs celebrating us feisty felines and all of our delightful(!) quirks, and all from best-selling cross stitch designer and bonafide cat lady, Emma Congdon.

Cat approved sentiments include: I Hate You the Least; You Work, I Watch and Judge; Feed Me and Tell Me I'm Pretty; How About No; Show Me Your Kitties; Boys Whatever, Cats Forever; Hiss Off; and many more.

Easy-to-follow full-colour charts, step-by-step instructions on all the techniques, and a gifty package make this the ideal (dare we say, purrfect?) book for beginners upwards as well as anyone fortunate enough to be owned by one of us cats.

Meow.
