Books

The
Cornell Book of Cats by Mordecai Siegal |
Cat Owner's Home
Veterinary Handbook |
|
|
|
|
A great book for everybody, while it doesn't get too
technical, it does cover most subjects well enough for the
average cat owner. A good reference book for any cat owner. |
Another great
book covering all aspects of cat health. I have this book &
find it very easy to follow, without skimping on detail.
Highly recommended. |
Cat Breeding & Genetics
|
Robinson's
Genetics For Cat Breeders & Veterinarians
by Carolyn M. Vella |
Cats Are Not Peas
by Laura Gould |
|
|
|
|
Although it is
technical, it's not over the top. I think most people with a
little knowledge of genetics would understand this book. I
managed to read this book without too much difficulty. It is a
great reference book to have & I would recommend it to all cat
breeders. |
Inspired by the
authors male calico cat, this book looks at feline genetics.
Well written, and amusing, this book is a must for any cat
lover interested in feline genetics. |

Medical, Genetic
& Behavioural Aspects of Purebred Cats by Ross Clark |
Cat Breeding By
Dan Rice |
|
|
|
|
I borrowed this
book from a friend many years ago & was so impressed that I
wanted to buy a copy myself. I spent years trying to track it
down to no avail. It seems there are now a few second hand
copies available. A must have for the cat breeder. |
This is a good,
all round book for the cat breeder covering all aspects of cat
breeding. I didn't find it overly technical, so makes a good
read for the novice breeder, but also a good reference book
for the more experienced ones. |

I have this book
& find it very useful for looking up medical terminology.
Probably not necessary for the average pet lover, but
certainly useful for breeders & those interested in all things
medical. |
This is another
great book. Written for veterinarians, it is not suitable for
the inexperienced cat owner, but it a worthwhile book to have
on hand for people with an interest in feline medicine. |
Please
note: This page has been composed by myself, and the aim
is to create reviews based on my own opinion. I own the vast
majority of these books, although a great many I have not
read in enough detail to warrant providing a review.
