A CATS CAPRICES.
The Animal Ii Very Partial to Comfort
able He'd.

The Animal IL Very Partial to Comfort
able He'd.
Cats are the most obstinately capri
cious in their fancies about their beds
of any domestic creature. They will
follow particular rug or shawl from
room to room, il il be removed, in order
to sleep on it, or insist on the use of
one chair. until they get their way,
and then, for some reason, take fancy
to another. The cleanliest of all ami
mails. anything newly washed or very
fresh and bright, strikes them as just
the thing for bed. A nicely y-aired
newspaper lying on the hoor or in
chair, or linen fresh from the wash, is
almost irresistible. Outdoor cats seek
swarm as well as tidy bed.
The writer was once much surprised,
when passing through a large ship
building yard, to see cat fast asleep,
lying, it seemed, on n muddy path.
But the spot which the cat had selected
for its couch was one ut which n hot
steam pipe passed under the road, and
the mud was there baked into a warm,
dry cake, which made not only n clean
but an artificially heated sleeping
place.
But the oldest taste in beds develop
ed by cat was that entertained by
very highly bred gray Angora, which
was justly petted and admired by the
family in which it lived. For some
months it would only sleep in or upon
hat, if such could be found, ladies'
hats being preferred. If it could dis
cover one with the inside uppermpst,
it would lie inside it. II not, such was
its love for this form of couch, il would
curl itself around the brim, and with
its long furry tail and plant body
made a hne winter trimming to a sum
mer hat.
BY some accident, drawer in which
all the summer" hats had been dis
posed for the winter was left open for
some days, after which it was discov-
ed that all the hats had been tried in
turn, the cat having finally selected
one adorned with white laburnum
flowers, which never recovered from
the ironing" to which it had been
subjected. London Spectator.
