Natural Pet Care provides hints, tips and information on remedies with natural ingredients to keep the cat and the dog healthy and happy and to treat common ailments of pets. The text is enhanced by full colour illustrations and the book concludes with a list of resources and an index.

I highly recommend this book. It is very comprehensive and easy to read. Every health or home-care issue I've thought of that I'd like a natural remedy to seems to be addressed in this book. The remedies are all simple to do/create. The layout also is very user-friendly and colorful.

I first borrowed a copy of "1001 Natural Remedies" from a friend, then realized it would be a good reference to have on hand. I'm getting good value for the price, as the recipes are concise and well-categorized.

Eventually, you realize that the same 7 ingredients seem to make up the majority of these recipes. For the most part, one trip to the natural foods store will have you ready to concoct lip balm, stress-relieving bath salts and itchy scalp.

It would be nice to have some specific product recommendations, as opposed to "use an unscented, natural shampoo". On the other hand, the author helpfully alerts you to recipes that will be messy.

The photos are very nice, and made me check out things I might have ignored otherwise.

This book has exactly what I hoped it would and is simple to use. While it is not the encyclopedia of natural remedies, it is an excellent place to start. I bought it for a friend and it more than meets the objective.

I often use the book when I have sore throats and other ailments, but don't want to deal with meds. I found many remedies for sore throats to be helpful, such as the gargles and other advice. I just bought another copy for a friend who loved looking through it whenever she came to visit.

In this astonishing book you will find remedies for almost any ailment or condition you can think of in one of four sections: Health, Beauty, Home & Pet Care.

Find out how and why the remedy works, the ingredients you need and how to make the remedy.
