Meet the Team
Clowder is an imprint that puts the cat first.
Clowder is way beyond breed bibles and cat care manuals, we focus on cat personality and behaviour. How humans experience cats and how cats experience us.
2023 CLOWDER CATALOGUE
You are invited to take a unique journey of discovery through our 2024 Catalogue.
PROVOCATIVE STYLE
A Cute Twist on Evergreen Classics
Clowder Press creates illustrated books for a general readership, but especially for cat fans. Informative, entertaining and written in a fun, lively, provocative style, the titles cover subjects from astrology to wellness, but always with a feline twist.
THE NICHE
Cats own the Internet
Yet there is little IRL presence reflecting this effortless feline appropriation of human technology.
We saw a niche without an ornament. So we took classic mainstream subjects and gave them an inventive feline twist, and an entertaining edge: books from a cat’s eye view, at home on any shelf. Like cats.
CATS PLUS HUMANS
A Life with Cats
Clowder books show how they interact with us, what impact they have had on great human minds and how they contribute to the human experience.
CAT RESPECT
On their Own Terms
Clowder Press takes cats on their own terms, respecting how they deal with life and the world, and shows what we can learn from them. When in doubt, wash.
CAT BEHAVIOUR
The Cat comes First
Clowder puts the cat first. We look at how cats behave, without trying to train them out of it, or breed them to do something different, or look prettier.
About the Founders
Kat and Moon are Nick Bevan and Viv Croot. They have each spent over 20 years or so of their respective nine lives in publishing.
They specialize in developing and creating books for the international illustrated reference market. They take concepts and develop them for print. And in doing so nurture teams with the skills to commisssion, edit, design and market titles.
Their clients include many of the major UK and international publishing houses in Europe, America, Asia and Australasia.
Tread Lightly
To reduce our environmental footprint, as cats tread lightly, we offer all our presentation material exclusively via data transfer.
You can download the Clowder catalogue, Advanced Information, Spex, Previews and other sales material to read offline or print up as you need. Save paper, ink, transport costs and a little bit of the planet.
