To ask me to rate the book is a joke - where is it, when will I get it and then I can rate it.
I was forced to rate it ONE STAR because you do not have a MINUS staR!!
The book was ordered in November 2009 and was due to receive it by 13 January 2010.
My Credit Card was debited immediately!!
It is now 29 March 2010 and I still haven't got it.
Receiving your automated replies is most annoying!
Surely their is one person in your Amazon site who can follow this up.
This has gone far enough - tell me where the book is or credit my account with a suitable emailing me with your PERSONAL REPLY.
If you think this is a bit tough.. you dead right.
Action please!!
Himmy's are the best cats and this book backs that up!
I have a himalayan cat and let me tell you they are the best cats EVER!!! They are docile, sweet, follows you around like a puppy dog. Tiffany is not a lap cat but she sure is a proxmity cat, everywhere you are, she wants to be, and that includes the restroom, she'll sneak right in behind ya. She is soooooooooooooo sweet. Bless my baby's heart, Tiff is 14 now and has just been diagnosed with diabetes. We're so good at giving him insulin now I"m a pro :). Anyway, I'd have 10 himalayans if I could, these are the best breed. The siamese gives the himalayan the beautiful markings but fortunately the personality of the himalayan comes from the persion; what a perfect combination. Everyone that sees Tiffy thinks she's the most gorgeous cat and she's got the disposition of a complete sweetheart. She loves to be brushed and we often get her groomed in a lion cut which not only looks darling but keeps the shedding down too.
Thinking of adding a "Himmie" to your home??? A Must Have!!
After cat sitting my grandson's "Adorable Himmie" for six weeks last summer, I was completely in love with these unique little creatures.
I have ALWAYS had a dog as a pet, currently a Yorkie Poo, and repeatedly
stated I would NEVER have a Cat...I didn't like cats...That was before I met "Oshkosh." Well, to make a long story short, I googled "Amazon" found several books about Himalayan Cats and other informational books. They all were used books, excellent condition, very informative and aided me in my decision to purchase a lilac point Himalayan kitten, Mr. Periwinkle, and I continue to buy cat books from Amazon. Do the same, you will be pleased.
Good - could have gone deeper
Some important data about vaccination, standards, colors and behavior. Could have more specifical details on neutering (what age) and so on.
Good if you have never owned a cat before
The book was well written. Chapters are informative for general information on keeping and caring for cats. however, the book was so general that i think they had a word document formated so all they had to do was insert the word Himalayan before the word cat throughout the book.
the only specifics in this book related to Himalayans is the pedigree origination, and only in very simple terms, and grooming long haired cats and is generally applicable to any long hair cat.
however, the book is loaded with really pretty color pictures of a diverse assortment of Himalayans.
If you want a picture book with Himalayan cat pics and general cat information this is the book for you.
If you are a breeder or looking to show Himies definitley look elsewhere, or you will be frustated that you spent the time and money on this book.
