Guide Review - Complete Kitten Care, by Amy D. Shojai
I had heard great things about Amy Shojai prior to reading Complete Kitten Care, and was not disappointed after finishing this book. Shojai takes the guesswork out of raising a kitten, from the first decision of "what kind, what color?" to Effective Kitten Correction. If you want to "cheat," you can learn a lot just by reading the tips and extras contained in the sidebars, but I suspect you'll soon be drawn into the text, as you learn more.
Complete Kitten Care is truly a captivating book, as much as those beguiling kittens that were the reason you needed it. Kittens are not just little cats, and anyone bringing a kitten home for the first time needs this book.
