5.0 out of 5 stars Good overall reference on the breeding of pedigreed cats., January 6, 1999

By A Customer

Pedersen's "Feline Husbandry" is an excellent reference for the serious cat fancier. There are good overviews on feline health, disease, genetic defects, cattery health protocols, etc. This is an updated edition with an expanded discussion of the bane of cats everywhere, FIP. I'd recommend this text as required reading by anyone interested in the cat fancy.

5.0 out of 5 stars I even sent one to my vet, October 13, 1999

By A Customer

I think this is the third one I've bought. I refer to it constantly - and get calls from people who know I have it. I even sent one to my vet. As Pederson explains - anyone with more than two or three cats is dealing with a multi-cat environment - a fact that both the cat owner and their vets need to acknowledge. Excellent section on setting up a cattery.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Resource, April 4, 2001

By	"anthonycat" (Houston, Texas USA) - See all my reviews

This book is one you need if you need detailed information. Except for behavior problems, there is everything you need to know about illnesses, breeding, kittening, genetics and other hard-to-find info. It has answered many of my questions to which I could find answers no where else.
