I have been in animal nutrition for over 10 years and I swear by Kymythys other book but this one however ....not so much
I was mainly on the lookout for information on holistic means to feed your cat so as to minimize feline urinary tract infections, and stumbled across this book.
It is meant to address the homeopathic care of cats overall, and urinary health falls under that heading, obviously. What I appreciated about the book was the wealth of information about the immense improvements in your cat's quality of life - in EVERY area - that can be achieved with the use of natural foods. While I agree with one reviewer that there could have been more emphasis on scientific studies, rather than anecdotes, to serve as a foundation for the author's arguments, there is still a great deal to like about this book.
I recommend you start here as a way to familiarize yourself with the holistic concepts that are being presented. If you are actively researching information on food choices to improve your cat's condition, or hoping to find a means of preventing future health issues, what you learn here might be a real eye-opener for you. From an indictment of the commercial cat food industry to the infinitely superior and commonsense alternatives, I think you'll be glad you gave this book a closer look.
Better for your cats
This is an easy read that breaks down in layman's terms how cats are designed and why they need the food that they need. Gives some basic recipes for cat food, but I would do a little more research before feeding a raw diet.
Natural Nutrition Cats
If you really love your cats, you HAVE TO read this book and DO what it says.
I highly recomend it!
Mrz. Schultze is not only an acomplished pet food maker, but a clear, concise and well researched writer as well. Her book has helped me to not only know how to make the healthiest food possible for my cat's but almost more importantly, she's helped me to understand why it's so important to do so. Wether your ready to dive in and start making everything from scatch or perhaps just getting started in the catfood kitchen, she has recipies for you. I highly recomend this book and I enjoyed her writing style so much that I read it cover to cover just hours after it arived. Her writing style is very reader friendly and easy to understand, and the amount of research that she has done has certainly saved me a lot of leg work.
Thank you for this book! I'm greatful it's on my shelf!
