About the DVD

DK's award-winning Eyewitness Video series, now on DVD! Eyewitness DVD: Cat follows the fascinating and ancient journey of these mysterious and adored animals, from the African savanna to the modern home.

Our Thoughts

This DVD will introduce you and your kids to the world of cats – small and BIG! 

You will be carried through the history to discover the importance of cats in the life of Egyptians as well as during the Middles Ages and navigation done to explore the world.   Cats are beautiful animals.   I love them but unfortunately I am too allergic to them to have one in our house.  Besides… with our regular visit at our campground and trips during the summer, I don’t think our cat would be happy.

Needless to say, I was raised with having animals in the house – goldfish, genuia pig, birds, and cats have entered our house numerous times.

The last two who were part of my life many years ago are the two shown in the pictures below – one whose fur was reddish and the other who had an extra thumb on both his front paws.

*sigh*   Sometimes I miss the snuggles a cat can give you.

With this DVD you will discover more about the felines around the world, their habitat, behavior as well as how they chase to get food.   You will also discover the reasons behind having cats on boats during the long voyages.   However, if you are a Christian believing in creation please note that this DVD will talk about evolution as well as astrology.    Not everyone wants their kids expose to this.   So I prefer to mention it to my readers.

Throughout the DVD we encountered various types of cats – domestic and wild.   Each were beautiful and majestic in their own ways.   My kids immediately reacted to the image of a cat without fur….   they thought it was bizarre and that it looked weird.   

We enjoyed watching the DK Eyewitness DVD on cats and learn more about the different kind of felines we can find around the world.   

As usual the DVD is well done and cover everything about cat –especially learning more about historical data on them.   One of these information is about the fact that the Persians decided to attack Egypt at some point but before doing so they have put cat images on their shield because they knew that the Egyptians adored the animal and wouldn’t hit the sacred image.   The result was that the Persians won the war…   I thought it was interest to say the least.

If you want to learn more about cats, the DK Eyewitness DVD Cat would be a wonderful product to have in your personal library.

The DK Eyewitness DVD Cat is available at your favorite bookstore, even amazon.ca.
