Millions of Cats is a children's picture book written and illustrated by Wanda Gág in 1928.

[2] The hand-lettered text, done by the author's brother,[3] tells the story of an elderly couple who live comfortably, but realize that they are very lonely.

This question incites an argument from the cats over which one of them is the prettiest, and it then escalates into a major catfight, frightening the old man and woman, who retreat back into the house.

The couple takes the cat into their home, feed it and bathe it, watching it grow sleek and beautiful as the days pass.

Writer and reviewer Anita Silvey explained, "She used both pages to move the story forward, putting them together with art that sweeps across the entire page spread: her favorite illustration fell in the center of the book - with the old man carrying cats against the rolling hills.

In 1001 Children's Books You Must Read Before You Grow Up, Kaylee Davis calls the book an "enchanting tale", and says "Gag's charming, folk-art style, simple black-and-white illustrations, lyrical language, and catchy refrain that children will happily repeat with each reading, make this a family favorite.
