Product Description

Product Description
This is our seventh set of Happy, Healthy Pet titles. These are books pet owners can turn to for the essential information they need to raise a healthy pet. All books contain information on:
  • feeding
  • housing
  • grooming
  • health care
  • what to expect from the pet
  • basic training
As our series expands and focuses on different kinds of pets, the emphasis remains on making the pet a companion. In addition, owners of more unusual pets will particularly appreciate the expert advice in these books because professional care for their animals may be difficult to come by. As always, the instruction is from experts–people who know their pet intimately, but also remember what it was like to have one for the first time. Happy, Healthy Pet guides are rich with professional quality color photos and are designed to be enjoyable and easy to learn from.

From the Back Cover
Finally, a book with a contemporary approach to your pet that emphasizes total care, training and companionship! You′ll not only discover the specific traits of African greys, you′ll also learn what the world′s like from your grey′s perspective; how to feed and keep your bird healthy; and how to enjoy your grey through training and activities you can do together. The African Grey is written by an expert and addresses issues such as preventative health care, caging and nutritional requirements. Other chapters include tips on how to keep your grey mentally stimulated and in top physical condition throughout his lifetime. Best of all, the book is filled with information–packed sidebars and fun facts that will enrich your interactions with your pet bird and make caring for him an easy and enjoyable experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars An essential read before you get your Parrot, 25 Aug 2005
I am so glad that I bought this book when I was thinking about owning an African Grey. This book is geared for the novice owner of an African Grey and contains substantial amounts of information on the Parrot's anatomy,feeding, grooming, behaviour and general care. If your thinking about purchasing an African Grey buy this book as it is packed full of usefull information. It will help you make you mind up whether an African Grey is the right pet for you.

Hope you found this review helpful
