In this episode, I talk about cat breeds and how knowing more about specific breed characteristics can alert you to issues that can affect the behavior and health of the cats in your care. Whether you have a client who has a special breed already or one who asks your advice on what kind of cat would be most suitable for them. I’ll give you some ideas about alternative sources where your clients might find the characteristics they’re looking for. And, if you stick around to the end, I’ll give you some resources and references that will make studying different cat breeds quicker and easier. If you’re looking for a handy reference a book called “The Complete Cat Breed Book: Choose The Perfect Cat For You”, published in 2013 is a good one.
