“A ‘must read’ for frustrated multicat owners, as well as those who want to prevent problems. Rainbolt dishes out solid, practical advice . . . presented with a generous side order of humor.”
—Dr. Marty Becker, resident veterinarian on ABC TV’s Good Morning America
“Even the most seasoned cat cowboy will owe Rainbolt a tip of the Stetson for her cat-friendly advice, down-home wit, and feline wisdom.”
—Wendy Christensen, author of Outwitting Cats
“Dusty Rainbolt’s talent for ‘all things cat’ gives us a very readable book that is not only informative but entertaining as well. Read it to solve current problems, or more importantly, read it to avoid problems in the future.”

Are you up to your eyeballs in dirty cat litter? Does the upholstery on your new couch resemble spaghetti? Has cat hair become a condiment in your house? The more cats you have, the more problems, right? Not necessarily, but multicat harmony sure does require a lot of planning, cleaning, discipline, and diplomacy. And no one knows this better than Dusty Rainbolt, an award-winning writer who has had as many as twenty of her own cats and fosters at one time.
In Cat Wrangling Made Easy, Dusty covers everything you need to know—from
dealing with multiple litter boxes, to feeding the herd, to understanding Felinese as a second language. Dusty also recommends the best products, all approved by the Rainbolt “test” kitties, which will help you through times of stress.
Easy to use and illustratedthroughout, and written with Dusty’s characteristic humor and encouragement, this is the only book a multicat owner will ever need.
Dusty Rainbolt is product reviewer for Catnip, former product editor for Whole Cat Journal, and the author of Kittens for Dummies. She lives in North Texas.

September 29, 2008: This is a wonderful educational book for an individual or rescue groups that have 1 or more cats their care. The book educates you on all issues with cats. I have been in rescue for years and this book had a lot of information about solutions and care for cats that has helped me to know so much more about cats. This book is great to have around if an issue ever comes up, you can just look up in her book or if you just want to learn more about cats. The book is easy to read and is very interesting! If you know someone with cat, buy them this book, they will enjoy it! Great job Dusty!

May 04, 2008: Ms. Rainbolt's book is an essential tool for anyone trying to maintain peace and sanity in a mulitcat household. Even experience cat breeders like myself have found help not only in the insight Ms. Rainbolt provides to multicat interaction, but in the resources she offers regarding products. It is easy for an author to advise readers regarding products like Feliway or Star of Behlehem flower remedy, but if a reader does not know where to locate the item, the suggestion isn't much help. Ms. Rainbolt offers solutions tested in her multicat household AND tells you where you can find them. I am impressed by the cat wisdom she has managed to collect in one volume. Other breeders I know are likewise impressed, requiring their new kitten families to read this book as a preventative to problems in their multicat household. I strongly recommend anyone with a single cat who is considering adding new felines to buy this book, read it, and keep it handy.
