Humane societies and animal shelters everywhere are overwhelmed by the surplus of abandoned or neglected animals - animals that could be pets for new owners. This is the message contained in "Adopting Cats and Kittens", a book that shows how adoption is a positive means for locating a feline pet. It provides advice on routine care needs, feeding, grooming, required veterinary attention, house manners, and how best to deal with a cat that has been abused or neglected. The book also makes a case for neutering as the best method of slowing the increasing numbers of unwanted animals. "Adopting Cats and Kittens" is both a helpful how-to and a frank examination of pet over-population today.
