Caught in a Cat Romance by Airie McCready (2025) is a picture-poetry anthology of cats, specifically the Sphynx and Devon Rex cats – the hairless cats. The photos are stunning and a beautiful accompaniment to the poems. The 24 cat poems are a delight to read. Examples include “If their souls had a song” – “Sealed in a Purr” – “A Clock & A Cat – and ”One True North.” Evident in the poems is the ability of the cats to heal a person. Reading the poem “Cat Medicine” sums up the physical and mental healing: “When I touch your back, my pains slips away. Maybe for a minute, an hour, a day.” These poems are both personal, reflecting inward, and external, in praise of all the poet’s cats, naked and furred. It’s a wonderful escape to read this anthology.
