About the author

David Alderton is a UK-based writer specialising in pets and natural history topics. Growing up in a home surrounded by pets, he originally trained to become a veterinary surgeon. An allergic dermatitis acquired in his final year of study forced a change of career however, and so led him into the field of writing about pets and their care. He has since become a regular contributor of articles on this subject to a wide range of newspapers and magazines in the UK and abroad, and also participates frequently in radio and television programmes.

His books have currently sold over six million copies, and have been translated into 30 different languages. David’s titles have won awards in the USA from the Cat Writers' Association of America and the Maxwell Medallion from the Dog Writers’ Association of America, as well as being nominated for the Sir Peter Kent Conservation Book Prize. He has also chaired the National Council for Aviculture, the umbrella organisation for bird-keeping clubs and associations in the UK, and is a member of the Kennel Club, as well as editor of the monthly magazine Practical Reptile Keeping.

Reviews

[Tanel · Rating 2 out of 5]

Raamat käsitleb sissejuhatavas vormis kassipidamise alustõdesid. Kui juba 24 aastat on kodus olnud kasse, siis kassi käitumise kohta siit küll midagi uut ei leia.

[Triin · Rating 2 out of 5]

I read the Estonian translation of this book and in parts the translation and editing was poor, the original English sentence structure being obvious. While the book offered a lot of fun trivia about cats, the glossary at the end lacked organization (e.g a single term's explanation starting from point A, passing through points B, C, and D, and reaching 'you should take your pet to the vet', which seemed to be a running theme). The illustrations accompanying the texts were not always corresponding to the text next to it which left a sloppy impression. Nice light reading if you're bored but as an owner of two 12yo cats I learned almost nothing new, so this might not be the best book for 'veterans'.
