I love the format of this book! Who knew there could be so much to learn about cat carriers. It’s full of great information, funny jokes and insightful stories. The colours are bold and bright, and the cartoons give it life and uniqueness. I hope this book will help many cats.

Great book with easy ways to improve your cat carrier experience. This is an important and often not thought out very well exercise by cat owners. Dr. Yau obviously did a lot of research outside of her vet practice which complements her daily and practical experience with cat carriers brought to the vet. Big plus for the pleasant color patterns and hues. Jokes and some puzzles inside as well were a pleasant bonus making this great for adults and kids alike to take prioritizing their loved pet’s safety and well-being.
