most admired in this wonderful cat, how
ever, in his ability to play pool. He is
extremely fond Of pool, and will sit by
the hour and watch the players if the
game is good one. but will leave the
table with meow Of disgust if he finds
the game poor one. The moment pool
is called this cat will 60 to the winner
