Product Description
If you're thinking of bringing a cat or kitty into your life... and need some help choosing your new feline companion... then the Skinny Guide to Cats will show you how.
If you're wondering if you should buy or adopt a cat, you probably have a lot of questions, such as:.
* Are cats easy for first time pet owners?
* How expensive is it to care for a cat?
* Is it dangerous for a pregnant woman to change kitty litter?
* Can you safely let your cat outside?
The Skinny Guide to Cats will answer these questions and many more.
Companionship is perhaps the most important reason to consider owning a cat. Children benefit from having a pet who will listen to them. Young adults busy with careers and delaying having children often find themselves drawn to pets as a way to have companionship. Research has shown that the elderly enjoy better health when they have a pet to take care of.
So if you're looking for a loyal, gentle and kind-hearted friend, a cat might just be the right pet for you.
Here are just some of the things the Skinny Guide to Cats will show you about having a happy, healthy cat:
