Summary: Save on Veterinarian Visits
Review: If I'd had The Purina Encyclopedia of Cat Care, by Amy D. Shojai just a day or two sooner, I could have saved myself a veterinarian's bill. Our Abyssinian tabby managed to escape the confines of the house for a romp in the big world. She brought an unwelcome guest home with her--a tick. For what the vet call cost, I could have bought this book. It would have paid for itself. And more importantly, what the vet told us to do is exactly what was suggested in the book. The Purina Encyclopedia of Cat Care is by far one of the more comprehensive works on the subject that I have read. Shojai gives good common sense advice and information about both cat care and cat behavior. There is a quick reference for medical problems that is easy to use and quite helpful. I would heartily recommend any cat owner place a copy of this book on their bookshelf for quick reference.
