Sophia Balagamwala’s unique artist book, structured as a charming travel guide for cats, playfully highlights the feline residents of one of her favorite museums in Karachi. Far from a typical art book, it offers witty, day-to-day advice to cats on optimal spots for eating, sharpening claws, lounging, and napping within the museum’s grounds. Beyond its whimsical premise, the book subtly nudges readers to consider how humans can foster coexistence with animals and become more attuned to their sensitivities, just as we’d hope for them to be mindful of ours.
