Synopsis:

This volume surveys cats of every type--ancient and modern, rare and common--exploring feline personality and describing the latest breeds. Six contributors offer a richly illustrated guide, including 36 color plates and numerous black-and-white photographs, plus a full section on kittens. Christine Metcalf discusses new and unusual breeds and the complexities of breeding, while Grace Pond provides practical advice on feeding, grooming, vaccination, travel, and general care. Additional chapters cover showing pedigree cats and a special look at the ever-popular Siamese. A comprehensive, enjoyable reference for devoted cat lovers, professionals, and children alike.

The Bookworms Mission:

We strive to reduce unnecessary landfill by taking used books, second-hand books, paperback books, hardback books, pre-loved books, great reads and recycled books and then redistributing them throughout New Zealand, Australia and the rest of the world. Readers can connect online with book titles, helping them find new homes, and support reusing and re-loving books that are affordable. At Bookworms you’ll find cheap books, hidden gems and even some lost treasures. We have a passion for sustainability, being eco-friendly, eco-conscious and we aim to incorporate that into all that we do.
