The Cat Owner's Veterinary Handbook

The Cat Owner's Veterinary Handbook

by JohnBower (Author), Caroline Bower (Author)

Synopsis

The Cat Owner's Veterinary Handbook covers all aspects of the cat in sickness and in health. It does not replace the vet but presents helpful advice on home treatments, where this is applicable, and informs the owner when to seek professional advice. Packed full of information, it will be invaluable to the millions of caring owners who regard their cat as 'one of the family'. It is written in plain, everyday language by an experienced veterinary surgeon who has been involved in the medical and surgical problems of the cat for over thirty-five years. The book includes two chapters concerning normal cat behaviour and behavioural problems which have been written by John's wife, Caroline, who is also a veterinary surgeon.
