Four little kitties get out of bed. They are given food, and of course, they only eat the middle. The kitties crouch and pounce on cat toys. They take a nap. Then they cause trouble by climbing on drapes, clawing up the chair, coughing up hair, getting on the counter, napping on house plants, and knocking over objects. One finds a box and sits in it for hours. Then they clean themselves and messily use the litterbox. Then they get lots of love and attention before bedtime. Do cats sleep at night? 

I thought this book was hilarious! If you've ever had a cat, you will know that Obuhanych has captured feline behaviors completely. Her illustrations playfully enhance the funny behavior of cats. It is a simple and delightful read.
