This package is designed to help you better understand your feline friend and the needs and wants you may or may not realize she or he has. Cats are peculiar creatures and have enjoyed many years of human companionship, and yet we humans are still just infants in understanding the unique animal that is the cat.

This package will walk you through the basics you need to provide general well-being for a cat (or cats), as well as a lot of information we hope will teach you to understand and respect the feline living in the modern human world. We have tackled the many myths and misconceptions that have developed over the years and included a good reference to some of the many books available to help you learn more.

All cats are complete individuals in personality and spirit. Some are shy, others outgoing; some are loving, others are standoffish. Some are big balls of sweetness, others are downright ornery and it may or may not have anything to do with their upbringing. Just like humans.

Cats don't try to change to please you or try to be something they're not. Sometimes you can train a cat, just like sometimes you can train a human. Most of the times, you just come to love them as they are or they'll go on without you -- and if they happen to be living in your home, that usually means they'll ignore you unless it's time to eat! On the other hand, they accept you for who you are and never ask you to change either of course, as long as you feed them. They offer unconditional love and companionship, great entertainment and the joy of a friendship that is never questioned.
