If by some strange happenstance you have never before seen a Kliban cat drawing, you will instantly recognize that each and every one of them captures the essence of…. cat. A well-established illustrator and cartoonist (Playboy, The New Yorker, Never Eat Anything Bigger Than Your Head, et al) B. Kliban used to devote off-moments in his studio to drawing his felines Nitty, Norton, Burton Rustle and Noko Marie the Snake. An editor friend saw this work and convinced Kliban to let her take it publishers, and in 1975 Workman published CAT, a huge bestseller which inspired an outbreak of cat love that has not abated to this day. That groundbreaking book was followed by more books, and more drawings, which manifested on calendars, cards, mugs, ceramics, clothing – almost 9,000 unique items to date. And the book that started it all is still in print. Cat people of the world, rejoice -- and savor the twice-a-week pleasure of KLIBAN’S CATS.

A Qat, yes, but not a Kliban’s Cat. That takes … Kliban!

Don’t forget “attitude”.

I was at my mom’s doctor’s office the other day (Mom was having a regular checkup).
In the office was a copy of this month’s National Geographic. In that magazine was the very word “qat” featured in a story about Yemen – qat is a drug in the Arabic world.
When I was younger, it was spelled “khat.”

I draw a cat by shaking the bag of Friskies Party Mix cat treats. They’re drawn right in. Probably work for qats if they made qat treats.

You can get by without qat eyes, if you have two more circles and two more dots.
