Many believe that cats are completely independent and don't mind if their owners are absent for fairly long periods. This is sometimes the case, sometimes not. All cats need love and attention, but some need a great deal. Breeds such as the Siamese may suffer, physically as well as psychologically, if denied companionship. And no cat, even one that seems aloof, wants to spend endless days and nights alone in an empty house. It may develop emotional problems and take out its frustrations on the furnishings.
The Cat Owner's Manual is a basic guide to cat care. The book was written by a celebrated veterinarian and an acclaimed author. It provides cat owners with well-researched and helpful information presented in a lighthearted manner. The creators chose to write the book in a style similar to what you'd find in "operating instructions" for a car or computer. Of course they--and we--respect the fact that our beloved pets are not products or machines!
