Vegetarian Cats.

Your correspondent, S. Jepson, OF

suit of those who have tried feeding
sweet corn to their cats. l can speak
from sixteen years experience with our
pet cat, and can vouch for his love for
it. think our pet cat can be called q
vegetarian. His fondness for almost all
cooked vegetables is very marked.
String-beans, peas, Lima beans and
squash disappear rapidly before him;
he will eat of beets and beet-greens
with q greater relish than meat: cab
bage he cares but little for. but all
kinds of greens. like dandelions. mus
tard, etc, he eats as though he loved
them. Potatoes are not a special favor
ite with him. although he will eat them.
have noticed that cats of Maltese
blood are very fond Of potatoes; one
that owned years ago would even eat
them raw. l know their tastes differ
Is much as human beings, for some OF
the kinds of food mentioned above I
have placed before hungry cats and
they would not touch it,-Harsford
