Rescued: Saving Animals from Disaster: Life-Changing Stories & Practical Suggestions
by: Anderson, Allen & Anderson, Linda C.
The inspiration for Rescued was the tragic situation with pets during the Katrina disaster — thousands refusing to leave without their pets, and many animals dying due to official indifference to these "disposable" creatures. Extensively trained in animal rescues, Allen and Linda Anderson interviewed hundreds of volunteers, hurricane survivors, and government officials for this book. Rescued offers both hope and practical suggestions, as well as the latest information on official policy and how to help in future catastrophes. It goes beyond the recent tragedies to talk about the various rescue and sanctuary operations, what volunteers and staff do, and how to help. Using a dramatic structure and photos, the book presents the before, during, and after journeys of people separated from their animals. Rescued puts attention on an unheralded world of animal shelters, organizations, and brave individuals who made a difference during the largest animal disaster in American history. Color & B/W photos. 347 pgs.

Rules For Cats
by: Mews, Fancy

Guidelines for cats to follow to "educate" their humans. Has your cat been hinting for a diamond collar? Or maybe a crystal dish for her pâté?

From rule number 2's suggestion to cultivate the feline mystique--"try looking bored instead of merely lazy. An expression of boredom will cause your person to feel guilty, and this will work to your advantage"--to rule number 16's urging to be creative at fashioning your own amusements--"discover which items in the home entertainment center can be switched on and off with the touch of a paw"--the 18 rules to be found in this highly hilarious guide will enlighten both owner and kitty alike. In the words of Ms. Mews herself, "you are a feline unlike any other and you know it. Lest you forget your rightful place in the universe, here is the ultimate guide for getting your way--always."
