Modern veterinary medicine promises longer lives for our pets than ever before. Cats, the nation's most populous pet, do not need nine lives---just one good healthy life, and one dedicated, informed owner. The responsible owner wants to know everything that affects his cat, including what his veterinarian advises about the health of his cat, and why. In this definitive, up-to-date volume, world-renowned veterinarian, lecturer, and author Lowell Ackerman, DVM, PhD has gathered over a dozen of the world's most respected and knowledgeable veterinary experts to discuss the aspects of the feline's health and anatomy. These assembled experts help to relay pertinent information about each bodily system and disease in layperson's language so that every cat owner can better understand. Employing the same method used by veterinarians, Cat Health Encyclopedia examines feline illnesses on a system-by-system basis, examining the cat from its curious nose to its tippy toes...and more! If you are committed to your feline companion and seek to be informed about the illnesses that can affect your cat, Cat Health Encyclopedia---illustrated with hundreds of fascinating and informative photographs and drawings---will expand your knowledge, improve your communication with your veterinarian, and promises a longer, better life for your favorite four-pawed pal.
