 | Feng Shui for You & Your Cat by Alison Daniels
This purr-fectly charming book offers practical guidance for bringing positive energy to a cat owner's home, establishing a healthy harmony between its human and feline occupants. Applying the principles of ancient Chinese feng shui, such as clearing space, sorting clutter, and strategically shaping both indoor and garden areas, the book shows how to maximize the strengths and minimize the weakness of a home's space so that cat and owner never again need fight for that favorite patch of sofa. The first part of the book introduces readers to the basics of Feng Shui, explaining negative and positive energy and how to track a cat's routine so the home environment can be attuned to it. Part two discusses the design implications of structure -- beams, ceilings, windows, doors -- and how to adapt them to a particular cat's needs. Exploring the great outdoors, part three presents five different models of Feng Shui gardens, showing how to incorporate features that cats love, such as banked areas, slightly raised flower beds, and large shrubs. The final part of the book gives guidance on staying healthy with Feng Shui and making sure that good energy flow is maintained. AUTHOR: Alison Daniels
