Review:
"Since virtually all the problems that people have with their pets result not from the animals themselves but from their owners' lack of information, this book could go a very long way toward mitigating that. People who live in cities or suburbs should be especially grateful for this book, which offers many possible remedies for the difficulties experienced by outdoor cats. I couldn't think of a single question that wasn't answered helpfully by this excellent book." -- Elizabeth Marshall Thomas, author of "Tribe of Tiger" and "The Hidden Life of Dogs"
"Here's a book your cat would have written for you. Anyone who has a cat, wants a cat or wants to know a cat should read this loving, lucid, comprehensive handbook. It's a gem." --Sy Montgomery, author of "Spell of the Tiger," "Journey of the Pink Dolphins" and "Walking with the Great Apes"
"Wendy Christensen is a talented and lyrical writer. This book is filled with solid information designed to help feline advocates make responsible choices. As usual, Wendy's concern, compassion, dedication and love for cats shine through every word. I am a fan!" -- Amy D. Shojai, president emeritus of the Cat Writers Association and author of over 20 pet books
"From input to output, adoption to saying good-bye, The Humane Society of the United States Complete Guide to Cat Care captures it all. Refreshingly honest, and extensively researched by award-winning author, Wendy Christensen, the Guide to Cat Care helps us enrich our cats' lives.

'To honor and obey,' cats wouldn't have it any other way!" -- Bob Walker and Frances Mooney, authors of "The Cats' House" and "Cats into Everything"
