Renowned wildlife photographer Tim Flach is set to release his latest photography book "Feline" through Abrams Publishing, featuring over 170 stunning portraits that celebrate humanity's enduring fascination with cats of all varieties. The book, scheduled for release on October 21, 2025, captures everything from domestic shorthair cats to sleek purebred felines and majestic big cats in vibrant, striking detail.
Flach, who has previously gained acclaim for his photography books including "Dogs," "Endangered," and "Birds," brings his signature style of capturing animal personalities through his lens to this comprehensive feline collection. His work has consistently highlighted both familiar domestic animals and exotic wildlife species that most people rarely encounter face-to-face, presenting them in compositions that reveal their unique characteristics and behaviors.
"Feline" goes beyond simple pet photography by exploring the deep relationship between humans and cats throughout history and culture. According to the publisher, Flach "explores this deep, sometimes one-sided but always enduring bond, revealing the many identities of cats—from their sacred status in ancient cultures to their viral superstardom in the digital age." The book showcases the expansive range of feline textures, colors, sizes, and behaviors, including intimate details that cat lovers cherish.
The comprehensive collection includes detailed information about different cat breeds, their evolutionary history, and explanations for why these animals have captured human hearts and imaginations for thousands of years. Flach's vibrant portraits demonstrate his ability to capture the essence of each subject, whether documenting the playful nature of domestic cats or the regal presence of wild feline species.
The book represents Flach's continued commitment to projects that examine the complex relationship between humans and animals. His previous works have established him as a leading voice in wildlife and animal photography, with each project offering viewers the opportunity to appreciate creatures up-close through carefully crafted, striking compositions that bring out their individual personalities and characteristics.
"Feline" is currently available for pre-order through Bookshop, with the official release date set for October 21. Photography enthusiasts and cat lovers can explore more of Flach's extensive portfolio on his official website and follow his latest projects and updates on Instagram.
