| cat care: Cat Daddy Jackson Galaxy, 2012-05-10 Cat behaviorist and star of Animal Planet's hit television show My Cat from Hell, Jackson Galaxy, a.k.a. Cat Daddy, isn't what you might expect for a cat expert (as The New York Times noted, with his goatee and tattoos, he looks like a Hells Angel). Yet Galaxy's ability to connect with even the most troubled felines -- not to mention the stressed-out humans living in their wake -- is awe-inspiring. In this book, Galaxy tells the poignant story of his thirteen-year relationship with a petite gray-and-white short-haired cat named Benny, and gives singular advice for living with, caring for, and loving the feline in your home. When Benny arrived in his life, Galaxy was a down-and-out rock musician with not too much more going on than a part-time job at an animal shelter and a drug problem. Benny's previous owner brought the cat to the shelter in a cardboard box to give him up. Benny had seen better days --- his pelvis had just been shattered by the wheels of a car -- and his owner insisted he'd been unbondable from day one. Nothing could have been further from the truth. An inspiring account of two broken beings who fixed each other, Cat Daddy is laced throughout with Galaxy's amazing Cat Mojo advice for understanding what cats need most from us humans in order to live happier, healthier lives. |

| cat care: Cat Grooming Angie Tracks, Grooming is an essential aspect of caring for your cat, extending far beyond aesthetics. It plays a crucial role in maintaining your feline friend's overall health and well-being. While cats are naturally fastidious creatures that often handle much of their grooming on their own, they still rely on you for additional care to ensure they remain healthy, comfortable, and happy. The benefits of grooming your cat are numerous. Regular grooming helps to remove loose hair and reduce shedding, which is especially important for minimizing hairballs—a common issue for many cats. Grooming also allows you to identify potential health problems early, such as skin irritations, parasites, or lumps, which may otherwise go unnoticed. By keeping their coat and skin in good condition, grooming contributes to your cat's comfort and can even improve their mood. Each cat has unique grooming needs based on factors such as their breed, coat length, and age. Long-haired cats, like Persians or Maine Coons, require more frequent brushing to prevent matting and tangling, while short-haired breeds, like American Shorthairs, may need less frequent attention. Senior cats and those with special needs might require gentle handling and extra care to ensure their grooming sessions are stress-free. |
