Review: Cats are living longer and there's more advanced care available for them. This book clearly talks about all the issues related to the older cat. It has something for everyone in that it give details about complicated information (such as cellular aging) which will be read with interest by those who have some knowledge about cats....but it also explaine things in simpler language for the lay-person.

This book is a must read for all people who cherish their cats and want to make their cats' golden years more comfortable.

Summary: 2004 WINNER of CAT WRITERS' SPECIAL AWARD
Review: Hartz Everyday Chewable Vitamins Award was presented for the best entry on the subject of aging cats, and included a crystal cat sculpture and cash prize presented at the CWA Awards Banquet.

Judge's Comments: "Ms. Shojai has efficiently communicated a comprehensive overview of the feline aging process on a general and organ system specific basis. Her research is comprehensive, current and estraordinarily well referenced from today's most authoritative sources. The detail in this book reveals the author's hard work and long hours to produce a work of utility and merit. Most of all there is organized and practical advice for dealing with a wide range of aging issues that will be of great benefit to the aging cat and the guardians who love them."
