Companion Animal Care and Welfare
Companion Animal Care and Welfare: The UFAW Companion Animal Handbook presents a comprehensive, accessible and practical reference for all parties seeking information about the proper care of companion animals.
It identifies the needs of companion animals, explains how we know these needs, and gives scientifically-backed advice on how to meet these needs. The book promotes the most humane treatment and best possible care of our companion animals.
This reference addresses controversial issues such as selective breeding, companion animal showing, the keeping of exotic species, and the international pet trade. It covers the husbandry and care of all major companion animal species, including mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, and amphibians.
