3 comments about Little Tyke (A Re-quest book).

1. This is a unique and heartwarming story of a lion cub who grew up vegetarian. For those that believe in Heaven and creation, it is a wonderful glance into what was and will be again. For those that do not, it is an interesting and sweet story of a lion who grew up detesting meat and blood. For those who do not know how to eat healthfully as a vegetarian or those that do not understand that no creature truly has the need for ingesting meat or blood, this may seem baffling. But for those of us who have been vegetarian for generations, and healthfully and wonderfully so, or have raised "carnivores" as vegetarians and watched them lead healthy, happy, long lives, it is easy to understand! No matter what side of the creation/evolution carnivore/vegetarian belief you may be on, you will enjoy this non-religious story of the lion who grew up as a gentle giant. It is a wonderful read for children, families, and adults alike. Enjoy!



2. Little Tyke was truly as gentle as a house kitten. As a boy I knew Georges and Margaret Westbeau and Little Tyke. Not once did Tyke ever display the negative tendencies we expect from a wild animal. She was raised as a member of the Westbeau family, would eat out of your hand, kiss you on the cheek and rub against you for attention. Raised in an atmosphere of love, she returned love to those around her. I have given dozens of copies of Little Tyke as gifts since it's first publication in the 50's, and will continue to do so. Little Tyke definatly understood humans. Her story will change the way you view a lion forever.



3. A lion cub is born, apparently allergic to meat and blood. While the diet described should have resulted in blindness and death, she grows to normal sized adulthood as a family pet (!) light reading, no explainations offered. Ripley's believe it or not is offered as a witness. More of a kids book than a serious analysis of the implications, it is a good read and the photos are amazing.

1 comments about The Complete Guide to Kitten Care (Mark Evans Animal Care).

1. My boyfriend and I recently fostered 7 orphaned 3 week old kittens. This book was invaluable! It talked about what to expect every week of the kittens life. When they were supposed to open their eyes, when they would start to play, what was normal and what needed attention. Also discusses their cognitive development. It was so clearly written and enjoyable, even humorous, that my boyfriend read it cover to cover and he's not a reader.

2 comments about Practical Transfusion Medicine for the Small Animal Practitioner (Made Easy Series) (Made Easy Series).

1. We love these books at our clinic because they are so brief and easy to read. We had to return the Transfusion book however because it was geared more towards running a blood bank. It did not have enough information for us that was geared towards our technicians for educational purposes.



2. This book is a excellent tool to everyone who needs learn the basic steps to proceed a blood transfusion, from collection to infusion, of easy way.

1 comments about Guide to Owning an Abyssinian Cat (Guide to Owning).

1. I would recommend this book to any first time Aby owner. It is excellent value for money - covering the essential elements of background, care and behaviour of your new Aby. It is a slim volume with a soft cover, glossy pages and lots of pictures. It contains a good description of the history of the breed and carefully debunks the old theory that the Aby is a direct decendent of the ancient cats of Egypt. It contains clear guidelines for how to take care of your Aby and what kind of behaviour to expect from your new friend. For a book published so recently I would have liked to see more information regarding the new Aby colours - Chocolate and Lilac. I also felt that the 2 page spread of one Aby was not a good example of the breed and did not deserve the glowing description provided in the accompanying caption.

2 comments about Winter Kittens (Zebra Regency Romance).

1. I liked this book. The first story with Felix was adorable. The only problem I had with this book was the last story. It didn't capture my imagination.



2. Winter Kittens is an excellent book to pass a cold, wintry afternoon. The three short stories are all very well written, with likeable heroes and heroines, all with soft spots for cats! My personal favorite was "Rescuing Rosebud", the last story of the three. It contained very well written characters, and not only told a romantic story, but also had a few action scenes which were very enjoyable. This book is a good addition to anyone's collection of Regency romances.
