Viv is a highly respected Wellington vet who actively uses holistic methods. She had a weekly session on National Radio with Wayne Mowat, where people would ring in with questions about how to look after their pets. Holistic health is about keeping pets well with good food, appropriate exercise for age and body type, and stimulating the mind for emotional and mental health. Holistic health is also very much a preventive approach, providing a healthy and solid platform of health, and using diet, exercise and environment to keep in balance. This book is very thorough and looks at every aspect of pet care in general, from how to feed a tiny kitten, the cat who sprays inside, the dog who is overanxious; first-aid treatments for injuries; right through to looking after an animal with cancer. It covers the holistic approach to pet care; nutrition and diet; holistic therapies such as acupuncture, homeopathy, flower essences, allergy testing and elimination, herbal medicine, chiropractic; common problems and treatments - complementary therapy treatments and techniques; holistic first aid; raising puppies and kittens holistically; and an holistic approach to euthanasia.

Viv Harris graduated 20 years ago with a Bachelor in Veterinary Science and Bachelor of Science [majoring in Zoology] from Massey University, Palmerston North. She has lived and worked all over the world and had a vet clinic for 10 years in Wellington. She is the the president of the NZ Holistic Veterinary Society and she also lectures at Massey University in Holistic Vet Medicine for final year veterinary students. She now speaks on various radio talkback shows and appears on TVNZ's Good Morning show in the regular veterinary slot.
