Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
This is a valuable book not only for those who have more than one pet but also for those with a single pet or an interest in getting a pet. Focusing on cats, dogs, birds, and rabbits, Miller, an animal lover and caretaker-companion of multiple pets, discusses combinations of either the same or different species and explains how harmony among different kinds of pets can be maintained in the home. She details their introduction into the home, care and feeding, health considerations, socialization, hazards to avoid, and how to be considerate of neighbors. She also offers advice to pet owners moving to a new home or who have to leave their pets alone for extended periods. Her appendix lists numerous healthcare and breed organizations for further information on specific animal species and birds. The annotated bibliography details other useful publications on animal care in general and specific animal pets. For all pet care collections.?A. Louis Shor, DVM, Veterinary Consultant, Mt.

Creating a Peaceable Kingdom . . . is an excellent new book about how to live with more than one pet. This is the only book I have seen with such usable information for life in a home with several kinds of companion animals. -- Pet Bird Report, Issue #32
The whole premise of Creating a Peaceable Kingdom is one that's been long overdue. Cynthia Miller's down-to-earth approach and understanding can solve many problems before they happen . . . It is a great concept and beautifully done . . . A must! -- Betty White, actress and author

This review is from: Creating a Peaceable Kingdom: How to Live With More Than One Pet (Hardcover)
I really enjoyed Cynthia Miller's book. Living with a houseful of pets myself, I found the book not only helped me with the four listed species (cats, dogs, birds and rabbits), but it helped me with my other pets. This bok was written in a format that is helpful for both the novice and the experienced pet owner. Hats off to Cynthia Miller!

The most useful book around for help in introducing multispecies in the household and enjoying a peaceful animal family. Wonderful advice on scheduling, bonding, cleaning, communication, etc. The rabbit information is up-to-date and accurate. Cynthia Miller knows her stuff!

A great book on introducing new pets to your household,

This review is from: Creating a Peaceable Kingdom: How to Live With More Than One Pet (Hardcover)
This is a great guide on how to introduce any kind of pet into an existing pet household. It gives tips on how to introduce cat to cat, dog to bird, bird to rabbit - you get the idea. I feel this book will help reduce the number of pets relinquished to animal shelters because it will help insure that new pets will be successfully introduced and remain in their new home. The book is very attractive and produced with quality materials. I, who purchase very few books, bought this as a reference book and recommend it highly. Judy Coene of Bugsy's Animal Network
