Books on pets

[Hellow]

I personally like the Gerbil Care Quick Guide written by Sue Fox that i bought while i was at petsmart. I also like the "an owners guide to an happy healthy pet: the pug" written by Dr. Edward Patterson.

"The Tarantula Keeper's Guide" isn't a brand new book by any means, but the information is contains is still up to date and very thorough.

"The Corn Snake Manual" by Kathy Love remains an incredibly good book about Corn Snakes. (Well, google the author sometime, it's no surprise!)

Indeed. Kathy is one of the foremost authorities on corn snakes, aye? I have her book, very good!

I find the best publisher for animal care books is Barron's, but it really depends on the author so don't just think all Barron's books are good. I have found that these are some good care guides:

-The Parakeet Handbook by Annette Wolter and Immanuel Birmelin
-Guide to a Well-Behaved parrot by Mattie Sue Athan
-A Complete Pet Owner's Manual- Hedgehogs by Matthew M. Vriends
-Training Your Pet Rabbit by Patricia Bartlett
-Complete Care Made Easy- Ferrets by Karen Dale Dustman

Why do I own so many guides? Because the only kind of books I like to read when I'm bored are animal books because I love learning about new pets and dreaming about having something like a ferret or parrot (which my parent would never allow )

I own tons of animal books as well. I always surf through them at the thrift store and pick out the ones I like. I bought a hamster one for the cute pictures to stick around my room once.
