Margot, this book is absolutely a terrific resource.
Elizabeth, even though we can’t stop the aging process, not for our cats or for ourselves, there’s still much that can be made with various holistic modalities.

Ingrid – thanks for this review. It’s always great to have a resource out there for people who are interested in holistic pet care and aren’t sure how to sift the wise recommendations from the snake oil.
