As an alternative, Null offers "The Tao of Chow," in which he recommends countless natural alternatives that can easily be made at home—recipes included—and which can prolong and improve your pet's life.

The leopard gecko (scientifically known as Eublepharis macularius) is a crepuscular ground-dwelling lizard. Unlike the majority of other gecko species, the leopard gecko possesses moveable eyelids which gives the gecko an anthropomorphic quality. The specie's extraordinary set of eyelids is the basis for the scientific name. Eublepharis is a combination of the Greek words Eu, meaning 'good, ' and Blephar, meaning 'eyelid.' The name Macularius is derived from the Latin word Macula which translates to 'spot' or 'blemish' which is in obvious reference to the animal's spotted markings. They are naturally found in the deserts of Asia, Pakistan and northern India.

Our aim, and mission, is to produce the best possible pet care books that are a great value for money. This care manual will instruct you on the best practices for caring for a Corn Snake as a pet. The corn snake (scientifically known as Pantherophis guttatus) is a species of nonvenomous rat snake that subdues its prey through constriction. The species gained the name 'corn snake' due to the fact that they regularly hunt around grain stores to catch mice and rats who are attracted by the harvest. However some people argue that the species is named after 'corn' due to the fact that the patterning on the snakes body somewhat resembles the kernels of variegated corn. This resemblance is furthered due to the fact that the species most common colour morph is a mixture of oranges and yellows. Unfortunately the corn snake resembles the venomous copperhead and is therefore often killed as a result of this. The corn snake is a North American species but can also be commonly found throughout the southeastern and more central states of the United States.
