Customer Reviews

Excellent reference guide to a huge range of pets
this book covers a wide range of pets; dogs, cats, birds, fish, rabbits, hamsters, guineapigs, mice, rats, gerbils, snakes, lizards (and more!).

Beautifully illustrated and detailed without being too scientific or 'wordy', it is excellent for a quick reference guide or a good source of knowledge for people studying this area (I personally found it very useful while i was studying for my animal science degree).
