Its detailed, step-by-step methods and information provides an easy, seamless changeover from the shelter and into your home. And, includes the essence of understanding felines from their "exclusive point-of-view" as well as to those famous, amusing feline habits and surprises! Beginning with the celebrated "Adoption Vows", which seal the importance of patience and commitment, to their first night, raising adorable kittens, adjusting adults, what to expect, crazy cat habits, feeding, vetting, etc. It evens has fun cat facts, a Kid's Page and lots of names to choose from. It covers it all! So, when one "furry-child" is adopted, bells ring! A life is saved to live in the company of someone who is as special as the animal they've chosen to love. It's all good, and all hero worthy! And, please, "Adopt for Keeps, and if possible, Adopt in Pairs". Note; the inspiration behind this book is that not only is the writer a cat rescuer, (dogs too), but it's also in thoughtful honor to the millions of magnificent cats and kittens that are placed into pounds, rescues and shelters every year! And, although those that work diligently at these facilities doing their best to facilitate adoptions, sadly, the vast number of cats far outweigh the number of adopters. Statistically, seven out of ten never realize a home. And, to urge anyone reading this to go and spend a special moment in the presence of a "waiting" baby kitten or cat in a shelter. Its' a moment that will unlock an instant, unique love for them. As well as experiencing an instantaneous awareness that recognizes innocence, human dependency, value and dignity of these precious animals. To look into their eyes is to identify hope as they wait for their adoptive hero to "choose" them, and to perhaps for the first time, feel a human's loving hug, and to delight in their first nose-kiss. Please; to help eliminate this despairing "shelter" picture, and aid in breaking the rotating cycle that mainly contributes to the tragedy of beautiful animals who undeservedly find themselves in a situation that may predict "life or death", is to spay and neuter pets. And, to Adopt for Keeps!
