From the Publisher

Charles William Daniel (1871-1955) was a maverick free-thinker whose tiny publishing house had august links with many of the most influential thinkers and movements of the 20th century. To wit, copies of Daniel's books could be found in the library at Ghandi's ashram. This spirit lived on after his death, and the company maintained its niche by publishing definitive texts on a variety of spiritual and esoteric subjects. Many of these titles, notably those on Aromatherapy and Bach Flower remedies, have become standard works on the subject. When the C.W. Daniel list went looking for a new home, the Vermilion and Rider imprints were the natural place for this wonderful collection of authors.

If you have a cat or cats and you would like to learn more about the use of homeopathy in treating cats, this book is for you! Written by someone who was a great leader in the use of homeopathy with animals, there is no book written by any American author that can remotely compare with this one! I run a small, private feline sanctuary and this book has probably saved me THOUSANDS of dollars in vet bills.

3.0 out of 5 stars This book should be used with caution., February 10, 2001

This review is from: Cats: Homoeopathic Remedies (Paperback)

This is a very detailed book for homeopathic remedies for cats. Each remedy is well described, but if you're serious about homeopathy you'll need a competent Materia Medica.

Moreover, the layout of the book follows an allopathic index, meaning by dis-ease and not by symptom. It may be useful to the novice but has nothing to do with classical homeopathy. I'd suggest you get Don Hamilton's book instead.

Unless you have already used homeopathy on yourself, I'd advise against using this book. Explore homeopathy in depth before using these on you cat.

This review is from: Cats: Homoeopathic Remedies (Paperback)

I have 7 inside cats and LOTS of feral cats... and this book has been such a BIG help...
I have used Homeopathic remedies for about 53 years.. It works.. and as for the feral cats/kittens.. I put the remedy in their drinking water...
I am not a big fan of meds.... but Homeopathic works, and is natural, and will NOT harm my precious cats..
This book is very easy to use and I would buy it again.
