2.0 out of 5 stars More of a reference book for a vet, Feb 2 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: The Cornell Books of Cats: The Comprehensive and Authoritative Medical Reference for Every Cat and Kitten (Hardcover)

I just purchased this book and was disappointed. It is really more for a reference book that a vet might have or if your cat has already been diagnosed, you could look up the diseases to get a bit more of an understanding. If you are looking for a book on how to treat and understand your sick cat, this is not the book for you.

For instance, there is one reference if you try to look up HAIRBALL, and it tells you nothing...no information you could actually use. Basically, it's a dictionary and nothing more.

I do not recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive Medical Reference for Every Cat and Kitten., Aug 16 2001

This review is from: The Cornell Books of Cats: The Comprehensive and Authoritative Medical Reference for Every Cat and Kitten (Hardcover)

Written by faculty and staff of the Cornell Feline Health Center, Cornell University, THE CORNELL BOOK OF CATS is an inexhaustible font of current medical information that is clear yet does not sacrifice clinical accuracy or detail. It outlines the feline anatomy. It discusses behavior and misbehavior and how to understand, identify and correct a cat's behavior problems. The book gives readers guidelines on how to select a cat or kitten, whether a typical house cat or a valuable pedigree. It also provides descriptions of various national associations. Further, it explains feline nutrition and how to properly feed a kitten, and adult cat, an obese cat, a sick cat and an older cat.

3.0 out of 5 stars A bit too complicated, Dec 4 2002

Very detailed information. But a bit difficult to use for the average cat lovers. Symptom flow charts would be a great addition to the book
