This beautiful reference book on cat care and the world's cat breeds makes a lovely coffee table book. It has over 700 photos of cats. It's printed on semi-glossy, flexible and thick paperstock.
The book is separated into two parts. Part One is "Caring for your Cat" and it starts with history of the cat. Then it goes on to many topics that any cat owner should be aware of. A few of the topics covered in part one are: Creating the right enviroment, selecting the right cat, care at home & away, nutrition & feeding, grooming, behavior, health and injuries & ailments of cats.
In part two, "The Breeds", there's a complete pictorial encyclopedia of all the main cat breeds. Each breed and the breed's many color combinations are fully described. It also has information on any important characteristics, such as temperment, grooming needs and average sizes. Non-pedigreed cats are also covered on a limited basis.
This full color, British authored book would make a great guidebook for any new cat owner. It would also make a lovely gift for a cat lover.

Contains very useful information for those wanting to know how to properly care for their felines, and even moreso for those wishing to show their cats in cat shows. However, if you are someone who has had cats all your life for the most part, you may not find anything here that you don't know how to deal with already.
