The Cat-Sitter's Handbook: A Personalized Guide for Your Pet's Caregiver

Book Description

Nothing can replace home as the best and least-traumatic place to leave a cat when an owner goes away. And leaving a cat at home means hiring a cat sitter to either stay at the house or come in periodically to care for a pet. This handbook is designed to offer owners peace of mind by informing the cat sitter about the peculiarities of a cat and its daily requirements, while also giving valuable information about general pet care. The easy-to-use handbook format allows the owner to fill in appropriate information about their cat's food, outside schedule, toys, rules, favorite chair, medication, etc. The text of the book consisits of an orientation on general cat behavior; tips on dealing with behavior problems; and what to do in case of an emergency. There is also a valuable section on how to give a cat medication, while also allowing the owner to write specific directions, and a section on emergency medical care for cats. This handbook minimizes a pet's stress when it is left in another's care, and gives owners peace-of-mind as their personal instructions and advise are clearly outlined and easy to follow.

Great unique resource for your (amateur) pet sitter.......2003-12-02

Am buying another copy for a gift and have already given several friends this book - those who 'hire' friends, neighbors or co-workers to pet sit their cat while they are gone. This info-packed little book has been well received by both cat sitters and cat owners. It doesn't claim to be for professional pet sitters and thus, should not be judged as such. Do you want your cat to be in good, informed hands in your absence? This little book lives up to it's name.

Pet Sitter's Advice.......2003-12-02

As a pet sitter I can tell you- If you want to spend your time filling out this book, go right ahead. But you should know that your pet sitter will NOT have time to read it. If you hire a reputable and experienced pet sitter, he/she will ask you many of the same questions you will find in this handbook. Moreover, your pet sitter should already know first aid and general pet care tips. If they don't, don't hire them!

Book Description

Written as a letter from a Zimbabwean mother to her daughter, a student at Harvard, J. Nozipo Maraire evokes the moving story of a mother reaching out to her daughter to share the lessons life has taught her and bring the two closer than ever before. Interweaving history and memories, disappointments and dreams, Zenzele tells the tales of Zimbabwe's struggle for independence and the men and women who shaped it: Zenzele's father, an outspoken activist lawyer; her aunt, a schoolteacher by day and secret guerrilla fighter by night; and her cousin, a maid and a spy.

Rich with insight, history, and philosophy, Zenzele is a powerful and compelling story that is both revolutionary and revelatory--the story of one life that poignantly speaks of all lives.

Customer Reviews:

A Must Read For Young African Women.......2007-03-08

This book is definitely one of my top five favorite books. As a daughter of an African mother I could relate to many of the lessons that Shiri taught her daughter, Zenzele. However through her narrative method of telling the story, I felt as if I learned so much more. I felt comforted by her words and this is a book I will most definitely find myself referencing throughout the rest of my life. From love, relationships, education, career choices, everything that young women face is addressed in this book. I highly recommend it. I absolutely LOVED it!

Recommended, but with flaws.......2006-09-23

I enjoyed reading this book very much- it made me think about various issues differently than I had before and that alone makes it worthwhile. I would highly recommend that anyone read it. However, there are some flaws. First, this is fiction, but I think there is a real possibility that readers will take it as non-fiction, due to its presentation. And many of the stories in the book are so extreme as to be unbelievable. For example, I'm sure the cousin that goes abroad to study and comes back as a stereotypical Englishman, complete with a monocle and walks around the bush in a 3-piece wool suit and pipe. Has anyone in the past 100 years worn a monocle? And I just felt like that entire segment was so unsubtle it took away from the message. Also, one of the most interesting points in the book to me related to the "brain drain" in many poor countries, where the intelligent and ambitious leave to study/work abroad, perpetuating the cycle of poverty in their own countries. And the mother in the book strongly criticized those Africans who stay abroad, going so far as to say they have "fall[en] from cultural grace... succumbed to moral anarchy and glittering materialism." (p.69). Yet the author herself (a native Zimbabwean I believe) lives in Connecticut!!! Isn't she the very person she criticized (through her protaganist) so strongly? Anyway, I thought the message of the book and the various authentic details were great, just thought parts of it were implausible.

Recollections and remembrances.......2005-12-25

This was the third required text for a class I took this past semester, Introduction to African Studies. The novel is written as a letter from an ailing mother to her daughter, Zenzele, who is studying abroad at Harvard University. In each chapter, Amai Zenzele recalls past experiences and relates them to a message or moral for her daughter. In regard to holding true to her identity as an African woman, Amai Zenzele remembers a cousin who went to medical school abroad and only returned when his mother was on her deathbed. She recalls her first love - the man who made her hands tremble - and her first meeting with her husband Baba va Zenzele - the man who made her hands steady. To me, the most interesting stories in the book were those connected with Zimbabwe's history and its struggle for indepedence. Stories about Amai Zenzele's cousin, who worked as a spy in the house of a Rhodesian commander, illustrate the extent of racism and ignorance that black Africans faced. The narrative is specific yet universal - although Amai Zenzele imparts certain lessons to her daughter that would only be applicable for a young Zimbabwean woman abroad, she also covers areas which are present in all mother-daughter relationships. Five stars for writing, four and a half for enjoyment.

Another perspective.......2005-09-26

It's always good for an American to get another perspective on African culture, and this is a very nicely written book that does just that. Of course, it doesn't give the whole picture (no book ever could). But through its use of storytelling, you get a snapshot of a particular corner of Zimbabwe, and it's very interesting. Liked it.

Wonderful........2004-06-15

I simply loved it - to say the least. Every word was just so delicious to read. It's one of those books you just can't put down once you start. It goes deep inside Rhodesia (present-day Zimbabwe) and narrates the political and cultural struggles of everyday Zimbabweans. This lady makes me proud to say my own name. She's an excellent writer and I am waiting for her to publish her next work soon. This book is almost like an emblem to all expatriates, which is no wonder that it was translated to so may languages. The main plot and story line is just universal, although the setting was African. I could certainly relate to everything. It also shows that we still do not have the political, economic, and cultural independance that we thought would come naturally after "independance". Her style of writing is like a mixture or medley of all my best authors...so you can imagine why it was a good read for me. Great job indeed!

Mary Matalin, the media savvy Republican strategist for two Bushes and one Cheney, switches to mama bear mode in a series of letters intended as a legacy for her two preteen daughters. Her advice reflects on formative experiences--losing her mother at age 26, working in the White House, marrying a soul mate from another political planet (high profile Democrat James Carville), and surviving Hurricane Isabel. Each letter's theme is reflected in her greeting. For example, "Dear hormone handmaidens" gives equal time to menses and menopause," Dear lovelies" focuses on how not to become a dieter or fashion victim and "Dear unfortunate carriers of the Matalin DNA," acknowledges anxiety (hers and theirs). Matalin is at her best when translating family or political lessons in her own terms including her mother's quiet faith, her brother Stevie's gallant response to his bicycle accident and the climate of loyalty in Bush's White House. Her love for her daughters is wonderfully ferocious and funny--full of mom sound bites. After promising not to spy or pry she warns: "But from a distance, I'll be keeping track of you like a rat on a cheeto."

Matalin's engaging and wise counsel alternates with advice flawed by her insistence on gender typecasting and the stale idea that "what defines us is ungettable by the other sex." This problem is magnified by the grating coarseness of her view of men. When Matalin tells her daughters, "Boys would screw a snake if it would lay still long enough," readers may wonder whether she intended these letters as keepsake for her daughters--or as a best seller for a wider audience. --Barbara Mackoff

Book Description

In Letters to My Daughters, famed political consultant and TV personality Mary Matalin shares the moral, ethical, and occasionally comic life lessons gleaned from her mother's experiences and her own. These intimate, personal letters range from the spiritual to the practical, from giving life to accepting death, from civic to personal responsibility, from looking and feeling good to dealing with those pesky boys, and more.

Here's a sampling of the mother wisdom found in these pages:

Crying is not a weakness; it's cathartic and cleansing. People who live life with the fullest commitment tend to cry a lot. It's a healthy expression of deep emotions. I don't like or trust people who don't or can't cry.
When I tell you I understand what you're going through, it's not just because I remember what it felt like to be a teenage girl whose body is being hijacked by hormones against her will. It's because I'm a fifty-something whose body is being hijacked by hormones against her will at this very moment. And if you don't believe me, just ask your father.
I believe in my heart of hearts that a life without faith is unanchored and unfulfilling. Without it, you're just wandering in the desert. You experience deeply that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts -- and the singing is damn good.
Ma had a complex philosophy of sex, which I heard almost every day from age ten. "Boys would screw a snake if it would lay still long enough." Let's flash forward forty years and allow your mother to give you a twenty-first-century take on boys and S-E-X: "Boys would screw a snake if it would lay still long enough."...And the men in Washington think that's a compliment.
A deep sense of loyalty can help you overcome almost any bump in the road. The disloyal may advantage themselves in some work situations, but their gains will be temporary, fleeting. They will fail their institutions, their colleagues, and worst of all, themselves.

Filled with warmth, common sense, a belief in the values that keep families strong, and her trademark sense of humor, Mary Matalin's letters will inspire, guide, entertain, and inform. They're the perfect companion for any mother looking for a smart, sensible fellow traveler on the road to raising good daughters.

Customer Reviews:

A bit Gloria Steinem, a bit Erma Bombeck.......2005-09-27

I enjoyed this book immensely (I did the audio version) although I raised only sons (3) and had to wait many years to get a girl (my granddaughter.) Matalin does an admirable job of using humor and common sense in her individual "letters" to her daughters on such subjects as 10 or 15 minute segment on such subjects as "boys, bad hair days, PMS/menopause, politics", etc. I plan to share much of this information with my granddaughter. The audio book is ideal for listening to in the car where kids are a captive audience, right? You can listen to one of the "letters," then turn it off and use it to launch a discussion of that subject with your girl (or boy.) Throughout the letters, Matalin pretty much avoids taking a political stance one way or the other, and she was a lot funnier and more sensible than I had expected.

Touching and wise.......2005-03-29

I do not have any children of my own, but plan to buy copies of this book for ALL my friends' daughters. Matalin's advice is humorous and humane. It is a compendium of her life lessons as well as maternal advice handed down through the generations in her family. Contrary to what some may expect from the author, the book is no doctrinaire tome espousing a particular political philosophy, but the advice of a warm and wise mother.

Matalin covers all topics of interest to young girls (and their moms) including friendship, academic issues, self esteem, dealing with mean girls and relating to boys. She is firm in her convictions without being overbearing or patronizing. She comes across empathic to teenage sentiments and concerns without advocating the "do whatever feels good" party line of many a parent who thinks themselves au courant. I have observed that teenagers (with their unsure sense of self) actually appreciate behavior guidelines from their parents but can easily become resentful when the strictures are too harsh. Admittedly, this is a delicate balance to achieve and Matalin does an admirable job of walking the tightrope.

Handbook for raising children of either sex.......2004-07-28

This audio book was not something I would have picked out myself. It was sent to me by a girlfriend so I took the time to listen. I have heard my husband talk about this "politically opposite" husband and wife team many times and admired their ability to make a life together when they work on such opposite sides of the political fence.

Listening to this compilation of thoughts and desires from Mary Matalin to her daughters brought back things my mother try to pound into my head as a teenager. From the bittersweet happenings in a teenager's life to the everyday down-to-earth, get-it-right thoughts on life, these letters provides the basics every child needs to grown up right. They tell about the fears of being a mother and the hopes to "get it right" for your child. They provide insights into the fact that just because a mother is now over 21, she can and does remember what it was like to be 8 or 10 or 16.

Ms Matalin tells about her own family background and some of their hopes, dreams and family tragedies. She shares with the listener some of those wonderful growing up stories that happen in every family and the same stories that are told and retold and handed down through the generations. If you are looking for a good way to talk to your daughters - or sons for that matter - grab a copy of this audio book and go for it.

First chapter made me cry.......2004-05-03

Mary's book touched me deeply because like her, I lost my mother before I got married and had a child (a daughter). Like her, I read everything I could get my hands on, from Spock to Sears, but nothing filled the huge void created by my mother's untimely death at 52 (Matalin's died at 50). While her specific advice to her girls may not be earthshattering in its originality, it serves as a poignant reminder to all of us parents that we just might not be around to tell our kids what we'd want them to hear from us first. I will use this book as a jumping off point for letters to my own baby girl. In this busy world we live in, it's far too easy to think we'll get around to teaching our kids important life-lessons "when the time comes," but before we know it, they're grown and all-too-often, our busy lives have gotten in the way of those all-too-important conversations. If you have a daughter, of any age, read this book. A great mother's day gift too!

worth reading, but could go deeper.......2004-05-02

This is a fine book as far as it goes. As a parent who knows that there are no easy answers, I appreciate the fact that she doesn't give a toolkit or a formula for childraising or growing up. But there is a book out there with a surprisingly parallel title, Letters to My Son, by Kent Nerburn, that is a truly brilliant work that deserves to be read along side this or any other parenting book. I have daughters as well as a son. I would give both these books to my children of both genders. Don't be seduced by Matalin's high profile. There are other authors out there who have as much to say. Give Matalin her due; she's done a good job. But if you want more wisdom and less psychology, get Nerburn's book as well.

Book Description

The narrator of Letters to My Mother is a young Afro-Cuban girl who, when her mother dies, must live with her aunt and cousins. Dependent on them and their goodwill, she’s deeply wounded by their taunts about how dark her skin is and their attacks on her behavior in general, including her choice not to straighten her hair. Her life is often miserable as she must endure casual racial prejudice and mistreatment from those around her. To keep her mother alive somehow, and to remember that she was once unconditionally loved, she writes letters telling “Mami” what she is suffering and feeling. Over the course of this powerful and moving novel composed of these letters, the heroine comes of age. Is her inner strength sufficient to overcome her pain and the bigotry of the people in her life?

Letters to My Mother was attacked in some quarters for exposing the problem of racism in contemporary Cuban society, but it went on to win major awards.

I love these letters (between Queen Victoria & her eldest Hessian granddaughter, another Victoria). The Queen was full of good advice & her loving concern for her motherless Hessian grandchildren is so evident...the letters concerning Princess Alix's marriage are so poignant (she became the last Empress of Russia). These letters also help those with a scholarly interest in Queen Victoria & the British Royal family know more about the backgrounds of the various members of the family. But they are also just plain good reading, hard to put down!

Book Description

Amazing Grace transformed John Newton from a wretched sea captain of slave ships to a passionate pas-tor and hymn writer. Grace further equipped Newton, who was childless, to become a tender, loving, and compassionate father. He adopted his 2 orphaned nieces Elizabeth and Eliza. Newton took no courses in parenting, nor did he have the opportunity to read the countless volumes of self help books on child rearing that grace bookstore shelves today. He wholly relied on the guidance of his heavenly Father. Through prayer and the reading of the Bible, he discipled his daughters in the love and counsel of the Lord. It is clearly evident in the compilation of these letters and memoirs to his daughters that he embraced the words of 3 John:4 "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth." Newton's godly mother faithfully instructed him in the truth through prayer and the reading of the Scriptures. She died when he was only six years of age and left him to be raised by his irreligious father. What joy and thanksgiving would fill her heart to know that the seeds of truth that she sewed in the life of her young son grew and blossomed. Newton accepted God's gift of salvation as an adult and further shared this gift with his own children.

Customer Reviews:

Words of Wisdom for Everyone!.......2006-02-02

The words from Amazing Grace have touched and blessed thousands of people for many years. We have all heard John Newton's story of his life from slave ships to salvation. What many people don't know, is that he was also the adopted father of two of his nieces. That same spiritual insight which penned the words of Amazing Grace, penned many letters to his daughters. Jody Moreen has compiled and edited those letters into a convenient slim-line book, "Letters to my Adopted Daughters." John Newton's timeless love and gentle "words of wisdom" for his daughters shines through on every page. Whether you are a part of the adoption triad, or a Christian looking for guidance, you will find it in these inspirational pages. A definite "must read."

Wonderful Counseling in this book...........2005-06-21

Jody Moreen's find and sharing of these letters originally written by John Newton, author of "Amazing Grace," is a wonderful and enjoyable read. It shows us how we miss so much in help and teachings to our own children, by not writing letters such as Mr. Newton did, and how we miss passing on Christian values and wisdom to our children.
This book is a wonderful gift to those family and friends in our lives. It is especially a wonderful gift for a father to give his daughter, adopted or not.

Expertly written by Dr. Lively, Waiting for Bluebonnets is a collection of short stories. Though in the form of letters lovingly written to his daughter, these stories are for everyone. Some are hilarously funny while others will make you weep. The letters are entertaining, yet extremely thought provoking. One gets the message immediately...attempting to incorporate into our own lives all the properties of God's love. It's a terrific book for personal reading pleasure and a keeper for one's library, as well as an excellent gift selection.
