The Good Cat Book [antikvár]

Foreword By Richard H. Gebhardt, former President The Cat Fanciers' Association, Inc. Mordecai Siegal is an extraordinary individual. I have spent many hours with him and have observed firsthand his great talent for understanding animals, the needs of animals, and the needs of pet owners. He has many fine books to his credit, and The Good Cat Book will surely take its place as one of the best cat publications for the American pet owner. Mr. Siegal is in touch with the real cat world, and his book reflects it. The book also expresses many of my own views as I look at the cat world and its owners. The central message of The Good Cat Book is that the relationship between owner and cat should be a happy one. With this goal always in mind, Mr. Siegal provides insightful, interesting, and lucid information on how to achieve it. The cat seeker must seriously consider the right kind of cat to buy. He or she must also think about the time involved in caring for a cat or a pair of cats. Too often the choice of a particular breed is based on all the wrong reasons, and vanity is usually at the top of that list. You may look for a cat that will enhance your home or yourself. This is fine, unless it happens to be a kitten from a breed that you are unable to cope with as it develops into a mature cat. Lots of coat on a cat is glamorous, but it also requires a great deal of work. Some cats are more devoted than others and want to be with you every minute. 11
