There is advice on choosing and buying a cat, inoculations for kittens and providing a safe environment indoors and out.

Part two, "The Breeds", is a broad visual encyclopaedia of all the main cat breeds, from the ever-popular Persians and Shorthairs to rarer breeds such as the Main Coon Cat, Ocicat and Ragdoll.
