A lot of us have had cats for a long time and think we're up-to-date on the latest info about caring for them, and we're not. She covers health, nutrition, vaccines, behavior issues, and so on. If you are still buying your dry food, or cans from the supermarket, you need to read this book.<br />A Proper Bostonianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10692465929307902698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-79791907216876517222016-11-19T10:57:28.837-05:002016-11-19T10:57:28.837-05:00Awesome advice ... things that took me years to fi...Awesome advice ... things that took me years to figure out (like separate food and water).Momma Kat and Her Bear Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254210236142173792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-39432419918151174502016-11-18T16:54:23.123-05:002016-11-18T16:54:23.123-05:00Great tips.

Two of my cats do like to travel in one carrier and that can get heavy!

Lots of folks don't know about the water bowl near the food bowl thing, so that was a great note. Just about every weekend, I'm out at resale shops, checking out the bowls and plates, to find good, flat nice-to-whiskers designs!Eastside Catshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04707701446222007049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-1783996774364710762016-11-18T10:28:39.591-05:002016-11-18T10:28:39.591-05:00GREAT advice. we get asked all the time when doing...GREAT advice. we get asked all the time when doing adoptions "do I need to bring a carrier?"
