Abstract
People work with cats in many different ways and often there is little advice available to help them. What is best practice in rescue - how would you set up a trap-neuter-release scheme for feral cats - what is the best construction for a boarding cattery? Reliable information will not only make the job easier and more successful, it will help to prevent mistakes, investment in poor equipment or premises and help to ensure good cat welfare.
Bringing this type of information together is not easy and requires the input of many people with expertise and experience. The Feline Advisory Bureau work with experts to provide sensible, practical, scientifically and experience-based information for those who need it. By understanding the issues, FAB has tailored its advice for those working with rescue cats, dealing with feral cats or boarding cats.

However, there are those who have mastered both the art and science of working with these wonderful animals and have made a huge difference to their welfare. Under FAB's banner the authors bring together a unique mix of expertise and experience to pass on tried and trusted methods. Hot off the press, this new manual aims to provide the best information to help feral cats - so you don't have to learn the hard way. £20 (inclusive of p&p)
