Course Description
If you're a new cat owner, this course is for you. Understanding a cat is not as simple as understanding a dog. Cats can possess a Buddha-like calmness that exudes wisdom but then exhibit psychotic-like behavior when confronted with a different brand of litter or feeding bowl or (heaven forbid) a new furniture arrangement.
Let's be honest, most cat care books come from individuals looking to lecture you on a certain form of cat care or a different philosophy of life. Declaw or not to declaw--this is a serious question, the answer of which will be reflected in how much you want a cat, not in how much you will love it when it enters your house. Cat care is not about learning to love a cat, but learning to ensure it is healthy and happy. The cat knows how to care for you, now it is time to learn to care for it!
