Cat owners who are considering having more than one cat or bringing other newly acquired animals into the house often wonder how their favourite feline will react to new companions. Author Karen Davis gives informed advice on the subject, then goes on to suggest ways to solve potential problems. Some of the questions she discusses include choosing between a kitten and an adult cat as the new household resident, adopting a second animal from a shelter, taking in a stray, compatibility and incompatibility between cats and dogs, protecting pet birds in cages and fish in tanks, the cat's diet and how it can affect feline behaviour, and much more. Also provided are additional information sources, including lists of cat registries and feline health and welfare organisations. Illustrations show feline anatomy and supplement the author's health care advice.
