This is our seventh set of Happy, Healthy Pet titles. These latest additions will bring our series up to fifty-five titles, and like the others, they are books pet owners can turn to for the essential information they need to raise a healthy pet. All books contain information on feeding, housing, grooming, health care, what to expect from the pet, and basic training. 

As our series expands and focuses on different kinds of pets, the emphasis remains on making the pet a companion. In addition, owners of more unusual pets will particularly appreciate the expert advice in these books because professional care for their animals may be difficult to come by. As always, the instruction is from experts people who know their pet intimately, but also remember what it was like to have one for the first time. Happy, Healthy Pet guides are rich with professional quality color photos and are designed to be enjoyable and easy to learn from. The mischievous African Grey has been noted in history as far back as biblical times. Here Julie Rach, former editor of Bird Talk magazine and author of The Cockatiel: An Owner s Guide to a Happy, Healthy Pet, brings to light all the latest health, care and training information on this interesting bird.
