The purpose of this volume is not to dwell upon the scientific breeding of cats, or to discuss their detailed anatomy. It is the aim instead to present a book which shall by simple statement and ample illustration guide the amateur in the care of the Angora catT here are many excellent authorities on the cat, and many books on the subject, notably those byS t. George Mivart, Ph. D., and A. Chauveau, but there has seemed to lack a book which should meet the requests and inquiries of lovers and owners of high-bred cats, not thoroughly acquainted with the history, description and peculiarities of this animal. The Angora cat-book is intended to fill this demand in a modest way. The book has been divided into several chapters, properly indexed for convenience sake. The origin and history of the cat has been briefly touched upon. How to train a cat and the care of a cat are amply discussed, and the chapters on breeding and mating will be of especial interest and value. The diseases most common to the Angoras and directions for their treatment are also given, and additional information upon feeding, transportation and preparation for exhibition, has been carefully prepared. The value of the book is greatly increased by the introduction of thirty-five photographs of the Angora cat from life, for which the authors are indebted to theW alnut Ridge Farms Co.
