What Readers are Saying about Cats in Cars
Janice in Ontario says:
I love cats and I thought I had researched a lot about cat ownership before I adopted them…but I learned so much I didn’t know from Emily Thompson’s cat care book series! I just finished Cats in Cars and it gave me hope that I can train my fur-babies to be calm during a car ride to the vet, and not flee when they see the sight of the cat carrier. My biggest fear when it comes to my cats is that if there’s an emergency in my building, like a fire, I won’t be able to get them into their carriers fast enough.
After reading Emily’s book I’ve got lots of ideas about how to make the cat carriers a friendly and inviting place. I can’t wait to read more of her books for the treasures of information that I never heard before! Finding out more about how my kitties think and how to make them happy and live as safely as possible in great health is worth a lot to me.
I can tell Emily really loves cats and knows all their idiosyncrasies. Her writing is as fun as it is informative, and makes for fabulous leisure reading. I’d recommend it to every cat owner or especially to anyone considering getting their first kitty. You won’t be disappointed in this book!
