I first introduced you to the fabulous Kitty Wigs last year, and now, just in time for Halloween, Chronicle Books has released the first ever Kitty Wigs book, Glamourpuss: The Enchanting World of Kitty Wigs. Featuring photographs by Jill Johnson and a foreword by the one and only Heather Armstrong of dooce.com, this book is guaranteed to be a hoot! Kitty Wigs are the brainchild of Julie Jackson, also the creator or Subversive Cross Stitch (warning! some adult content here, but it’s humorous!)

This is so cute and funny! I had never seen the kitty wigs before. I’m so glad that has been remedied! I added the book to my favorites on Amazon. Maybe I can get it for myself for Christmas!

I love the author’s other work with Sublime Stitching! I want to put that blue bob wig on my cornish rex!

Awe those cats are fantastic models! If I put a wig on one of my cats they’d reach up and pull it off or bite it as it hangs in front of their face like that. I love these photos, so cute! I’d love to get this book.

Thanks for your amazing blog. Meow!!

If you ask me, all those cats look slightly homocidal. Hard to blame them!
October 27th, 2009 at 1:34 am
I am strangely intrigued. How fun is that!
October 27th, 2009 at 2:08 am
I have to say I have never liked this. To me, the cats with wigs look stupid
Sorry.

I just flipped through this in a little store the other day but didn’t have cash on my to buy it. It’s absolutely fun and I know I’ll have it eventually… but free would be great!

These pictures always bring a smile to my face
October 27th, 2009 at 5:09 am

Oh. My. God. Glamourpuss has cast some sort of spell on me. I am obsessed with Kitty Wigs.
October 27th, 2009 at 7:22 am
I hope I win. I love my cats. <3

Fantastic! I love unique cat books!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:26 am
we NEED this book!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:26 am
Oh, my! This is too cute! If my cats would sit still for headgear, I would have invested in some of the wigs the first time I saw them. Alas, my kitties are hunters — and shredded the washcloths and rabbit skins I tried.
Glamourpuss – awesome fun!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:28 am
What a great idea for a book–I would love to have it!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:28 am
Those wigs look hilarious, but I imagine they are an awful lot of work!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:29 am
This is soooo funny! Please enter me, thank you!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:29 am
Oh how cool!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:31 am
A cat in a wig never fails to make me smile.
October 27th, 2009 at 7:31 am
THis is AMAZING!! AS a pet photographer in the making I love to see things like this, it makes my crazy ideas not seem so crazy, and makes me smile! I love this book!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:31 am
That is hilarious!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:32 am
OMG that book is so funny! Got to have one!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:32 am
One of my four kitties loves to sit with a silly hat on her head. She is so proud of it. She greatly admires these cats with wigs.
October 27th, 2009 at 7:33 am
I love it!!!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:34 am
No! I don’t want to see cats in wigs or clothes. It’s really stupid
to do this to cats – even if I’m sure the cats probably don’t mind, the question is, why do you want to mock beautiful creatures wuth ugly paraphernelia?
October 27th, 2009 at 7:34 am
Did I see this book at Urban Outfitters recently? Looks adorable!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:36 am

October 27th, 2009 at 7:39 am
oh this is the best ever book, i can only hope finally i might win : )
October 27th, 2009 at 7:40 am
Ok, not going to lie – kind of obsessed with kitty wigs. If I didn’t think my cats would gang up and kill me in my sleep if I tried it, I’d be all over it. Must have!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:43 am
Oh my. I need this. If only to drive my wife crazy…
October 27th, 2009 at 7:46 am
very cool.
October 27th, 2009 at 7:47 am
Oh my I LOVE the kitties with wigs, I must find one for my lovely kitty. The book looks awesome.
October 27th, 2009 at 7:47 am

October 27th, 2009 at 7:50 am
cats in wigs = awesome sauce!
October 27th, 2009 at 7:50 am
Dear everyone,
This is less on the side of “cute and adorable” and more on the side of “hilarious and I must have it right now.”
Sincerely,
Me
