Review

"A huge amount of information."  (Birmingham Post, Monday 19th November 2007)

Product Description

Who can resist the charm of a kitten, those energetic, curious creatures whose cuteness factors fall somewhere between adorable and irresistible? But as animal shelters across the country can attest, those enchanting balls of fluff quickly mature into full-grown cats with their own requirements for healthy, happy lives.

Kittens For Dummies is your source for understanding what you can expect if you decide to welcome a high energy and high maintenance four-legged friend into your home. You'll not only figure out if you're ready to fit a kitty into your lifestyle, but also how to go about

  • Adopting or buying the right kitten for you
  • Making sure your home is kitten-proof
  • Introducing your new pet to children and other pets
  • Preventing and treating feline illnesses
  • Dealing with behavioral issues
  • Rescuing an orphaned kitten

Books abound about kitten care. Unlike many of them – those that seem to require a veterinary medicine degree to figure out – Kittens For Dummies explains everything in plain, everyday English. And like the subject itself, this handy reference is full of fun. In entertaining, informative language, the friendly guide gives you the real deal on

  • Doling out plenty of love, attention, and patience
  • Deciding whether kitty will be allowed to explore the outdoors
  • Making your kitten comfy with the right supplies and accessories
  • Knowing how often to ring the dinner bell
  • Recognizing emergencies that call for quick trips to the veterinarian
  • Locating qualified caretakers when you travel
  • Nurturing kitty into adulthood

 Before you take the giant leap into kitten ownership – a wonderful and sometimes chaotic world – check out the expert advice in a resource that's bound to become as constant a companion as your purr-fect pet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeping it real, Dec 13 2008
This review is from: Kittens For Dummies (Paperback)
Now this book is all you will need for your new furry friends arrival.

In buying this book you buy the answers you require to raise your friend and keep you sanity during the young years.

This book starts from before you even have picked your friend (picking the bread or shelter), it goes into all the decisions you will need to make, during his first year and gives you a lot of information under one cover.

Cats for dummies is another good book but I wouldn't suggest buying them both like we did. Both books go into the same details and they over lap a lot of things so buy one or the other.

The only thing it lacks is the information required to pick the right food.... for that you will have to google it. Other than that this book is a great investment.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Saving Grace in Orphan Kitten care, Jan 20 2004
This review is from: Kittens For Dummies (Paperback)
If you have ever found an orphaned kitten and experienced that instance of uncertainty, where you stomach lurches and your brain scrambles for the answer to "What do I do now?" Then, this book was written just for you.

An expert in the field of orphaned kitten care, Dusty Rainbolt offers her substantial field of knowledge directly to you. Written in an easy to understand style and surrounded by stunning photographs by her husband Weems, this book covers all apects of the care of orphans. A remarkable navigational tool that will carry you safely through the job of rearing a healthy kitten, or caring for an orphaned litter, this is the type of book to enhance any cat lover's library.

Even veterans in cat rescue are likely to find that Dusty Rainbolt's presentation and knowledge will assist them and this book will become a powerful resource tool for them. My suggestion is buy this now before Kitten Season strikes, because once it does, this puppy will be sold out!

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST FOR ANYONE CONSIDERING A KITTEN!!, Dec 29 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Kittens For Dummies (Paperback)
I do a lot of rescue work and it's been my experience that many people who want a kitten don't understand how much work kittens are. Admittedly,I was one of those people when I adopted my first kitten and I wish I'd had this as a resource back then. This book tells you everything you need to know about getting a kitten and raising it to be a great furry family member. It even covers breed rescue, which most people don't even know exists. After reading this book you'll either decide that a kitten isn't for you or you'll be one of the greatest kitten owners around!
