Owner's guide to Cat pleasing

This book is a great and very COMPLETE presentation of acu-pessure and energy medicine for our cat friends/family members. It seems that our cats are 1 HUGE energy site and thus can greatly benefit from clearing blockages, etc. of the energy meridians. This book clearly depicts each of the many pathways and describes how each can be balanced to beenfit whatever prolem your feline friedn may have. Is more than a summary so may seem overwhelming but you can get what you want at many different levels of reading and study. Well worth the money and search!

great book

This book is an absolute must for any feline lover. I have even given a copy to my vet. I first read this book about 2 years ago when I started my training for Animal Massage. I have used everything this book has taught me and have had great results.

Concise and Well-Organized

I'm a small animal massage therapist but have not taken a course in Traditional Chinese Medicine yet. This book is very helpful for giving a good background for what seem to be complicated concepts and multiple ideas. Acu-Cat is written in simple terms with a well-organized format. For someone who did not have any training in bodywork, this might be a bit too much but still a good intro to TCM. I'm reading Acu-Cat along with Four Paws, Five Directions and find the former an excellent resource for the more detailed topics. Acu-Cat is a "must read" for every vet, vet tech, & massage therapist who did not have TCM in their basic curriculum.

PURRRRfect book for cat lovers!

Cats are such sensitive little souls, that's what makes them so responsive to acupressure. Snow and Zidonis have created a guide to feline acupressure that clearly describes how to perform an acupressure treatment, including lots of diagrams. Best of all, the book has specific treatments for common feline conditions like kidney problems, aging issues, hindquarter weakness, calming, and much more. My cats love it, they say "PURRRRRRRRR". Your cats will be in 7th heaven and will definitely have all 9 lives.
