5.0 out of 5 stars More info than you need - it's not a bad thing, 30 May 2000

By A Customer

If this book has any fault, it lies in being TOO inclusive. The author is clearly enthusiastic and knowledgeable about her subject, and the book includes many gorgeous photographs of Tonkinese cats. In addition to information about basic care of Tonks (much of which can be found in other "how to take care of cats" books), she provides an indepth history of the breed, including different type classifications in various countries, as well as genetic information helpful to breeders.

I do not breed or show my Tonks; they are retired show cats I adopted from a breeder. This book provided more information than I really needed. However, it sits on my shelf just the same, as an encyclopedic reference. A great resource book for those who really love the breed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, the first of its kind, 8 Jan 1999

By A Customer

I bought this book because I couldn't find any other detailed account of this breed. I'll certainly not bother looking for anything else on these cats because everything I wanted to know is in here! The photos are not the usual posed shots but they just confirm the reality of living with a Tonk. Why hasn't anyone ever written about these cats before - well its too late now nothing else needs to be written. Buy it, even if you don't have a Tonk!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Only Tonkinese Book Anyone Would Ever Need, 11 Jun 2003

By	"ayshazen" - See all my reviews

As a Tonkinese breeder for the past 3 years, I "cut my teeth" on this book. It provided me with answers to most of my questions and was an invaluable resource for me, as a new Tonkinese pet owner and new breeder too. Linda Vousden is one of the UK's foremost authorities on the Tonkinese cat, and her book is one of those rare publications that provides a wealth of information for both pet owners and experienced breeders alike. I always strongly recommend it to anyone who expresses an interest in this beautiful breed. I would like to see an update in the recent GCCF registration policy changes, but apart from this, I know of no other book I could rate any higher.
