1.0 out of 5 stars
not for people who really want to know about the breed,
By Heath L. Buckmaster "_heath_" (Sacramento, CA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Sphynx Cat (Learning about Cats (Capstone)) (Library Binding)
i bought this book originally because i own a sphynx and wanted to have some reference material about the breed.unforunately this book comes across as rich reference material in the description, but is anything but. it's written as though a parent is reading it to a child, or a child is reading it themselves. (read: language that is very rudimentary) ...they should move this into the children's section and not with the reference material. i do not recommend this book unless you are specifically purchasing it for a child who is unfamiliar with pets, and wants very very non-specific and general information about a cat. if you are looking for things specific to the breed such as standards, care and maintenance, common concerns, etc. this is the incorrect material to purchase. enjoy your sphynx and select the right books.

This review is from: The Sphynx Cat (Learning about Cats (Capstone)) (Library Binding)
This is not a book if you are either are owned by a Sphynx (as I am a humbleservant to mine!!) or if you want to know more about this wonderful breed of cat.This is a book better suited for children than as a reference book on the breed. Good book for my nieces. You get nothing on breed standard, care and maintenance, special concerns about the cat. Such as, these are NOT hypo-alergenic cats, allergic to cats is allergic to cats, period. For eference material reguarding Sphynx cats lookk to the web, I have yet to find a good book dealing with this breed. I do not reccomend this book for new or prospective owners of the breed. |
