THIS BOOK ANSWERED SO MANY QUESTIONS THAT I HAD, AND MANY MORE QUESTIONS THAN I HAD NOT THOUGHT OF. IT WAS EASY TO READ, AND PACKED WITH INFO FOR THE NOVICE, AS WELL AS FOR THE EXPERIENCED BREEDER. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN RAISING CATS.

I have been breeding pedigreed cats for 22 years. This is the best book on the subject I have ever read. I wish I had this book when I began. A MUST for cat breeders.

There is a reason that people are willing to pay $150+ for the collectible book that is out of print. Luckily my fiance and I won it at a local cat show that had a raffle. We had no idea it was worth so much at the time, but devoured it and thought it was excellent.

This book is nearly a complete resource for all breeders, if I could choose only one cat book to keep this would be the one.

It is well written, thought-out, and VERY informative. Any question you have about breeding is answered here. It is simply the best cat breeding book I have ever read.

This is a well done book. A new version with color photos would be a bit more helpful, but for someone considering breeding it's a must, and even for a more seasoned breeder it's a good brush up. I take it out every time I have a litter. As an aside, the between chapter "cat/people" jokes make it an ejoyable read. Some of the references are a little outdated, but the material is not; some things don't change that much. Breeding cats is one of those, highly recommend.

I bought this book because I am considering breeding cats a later point and I wanted to find out a little bit of what it involves. This book was really great at going through the basics and details of showing, breeding and running a cattery. And, not only that, but it's actually enjoyable to read. I highly recommend this book.

This is a wonderful book...a must have!

Re: "What do you love": There is nothing wrong with breeding beautiful purebred cats or dogs... If people raised and loved each OTHER right there would be no need for shelters. If children are taught from a young age to love and respect each other then compassion for ALL living things will naturally follow. I believe good, honest breeders are the perfect example of that! They take on great responsibility with endless love, devotion and compassion.

The book itself is in excellent condition with a price very reasonable. The content is professionally written, although some is outdated and I don't think that internet access was available at the time of it's publication. The principles remain the same and there is valuable, having been experienced, information.

Book arrived in fantastic order. Book arrived in very short time. Just started reading today and it is very informative and easy to read. Reccommend this book for any breeder or any one deciding to breed.
