Recenzii
“The veterinary and health information is exactly right. The pictures are super cute. The book is easy to read and will be easy to use as a quick resource. You NEED this book. You will love it, and you will learn about and appreciate your cat/cats/cats–to–be even more than you already do.” —Shawn M. Finch, DVM, rileyandjames.com “I have read a lot of cat care books in the almost three decades I’ve spent either caring for cats, working with cats, or writing about cats. When I picked up The Complete Cat’s Meow, I honestly didn’t expect to learn anything new. I was wrong. Not only did I learn a few new things, but this guide truly stands out in the genre.” —Ingrid King, Pet Connection “Arden′s new book provides cat people with everything they need to keep their cat healthy, happy, and bonded with them for life. She debunks cat myths and provides information to make life better for person and cat. If you get one cat book, this should be it.” —Nancy Marano, Petroglyphs
