Friend
by: Moore, Arden
With over 90 million pet cats in this country, it's clear: America cherishes
its feline companions. Yet cat owners don't always have the time, or the
know-how, to develop harmonious bonds with their furry friends. Many owners
find themselves confounded by common feline behaviors, like scratching,
biting, stalking, and pouncing. Meanwhile, the average household is filled
with objects that could be dangerous for Kitty - clothes dryers, dental
floss, even a leftover chocolate chip cookie! What's a time-pressed cat
lover to do? Arden Moore is here to help. In Happy Cat, Happy You, Moore,
a bestselling author of 17 pet books and national spokesperson on pet
issues, covers it all - bath time, mealtime, quiet time, and play time.
All tips are simple and quick to implement; collectively, they add up
to a lot of TLC! The book features a compact, inviting format and is filled
with quotes, quick insights, and colorful call-out boxes. Happy Cat, Happy
You is a creative, low-fuss approach to caring for America's most popular
pet - and a must-have for the busy owner. 296 pgs.
