Pitcairn's Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs & Cats offers
valuable natural and holistic advice on a host of pet topics, including,
but not limited to, diet, exercise, environment, coping with a pet's death,
and how to care for a sick animal. In addition to their thorough discussion
of the above, Richard Pitcairn, D.V.M., and his wife, Susan Hubble Pitcairn,
M.S., offer a comprehensive "quick reference" section on animal
illnesses, organized alphabetically and including a brief description
of each illness, preventative measures that may be taken, and holistic
and natural treatment options for both dogs and cats--treatments that
should always be discussed with one's vet before being used. Occasional
line drawings, informative graphs, and the Pitcairn's intelligent prose
make this guide a must-have for pet owners interested in a natural lifestyle
for their pets. Highly recommended!

My Patients Are Under the Bed by Louis J. Camuti, Marilyn Frankel (Contributor), Haskel Frankel (Contributor)
Doctor Louis Camuti tended an amazing variety of cats in New York City,
owned by a more amazing variety of famous artists, authors, Broadway and
motion picture stars, producers, and executives. His insight into the
owners is sometimes juicier than his insight into their cats (which is
considerable). Along the way, he tells us useful facts. Cats are not fussy
eaters, for example. They just try to outfox their owners into paying
a fortune for fancy food. It's a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing book.
Highly recommended!

Cat
Care, Naturally: Celeste Yarnall's Complete Guide to Holistic Health Care
for Cats by Celeste Yarnall
The idea of healing a cat with crystal therapy, energy medicine, and astromedicine
will seem bizarre and even ridiculous to many pet owners. Yet the natural
approach to cat well-being--a system relying less on chemical treatments
and more on the body's own healing power--is gaining in popularity. Celeste
Yarnall's Cat Care, Naturally enlightens owners about the field of feline
holistic medicine. The author stresses that the book is not intended as
a replacement for accepted veterinary medicine--and a professional should
always be consulted before administering alternative treatments. Holistic
medicine treats a cat as a "a unique individual, a perfect living
thing."
