why Cats Hiss.
s .5Iy'.''.s's''

Why does cat hiss when angry?
Take tiny kitten at play and make it
1gry and it will snarl in its baby
fashion and hiss as best it can. Why?
N Parsons Magazine DR.. Louis Rob-
inson says that the kissing and splitting
OF young kittens is probably an instinc-
tive attempt to scare away enemies
from the helpless tots by initiating
snakes hiss. A great many creatures
that live in shallow holes have like
habit of kissing when annoyed or an
gered. The tail of q cat seen dimly in
the half light of a cave suggests a
snakes tail and is often marked in way
to heighten the resemblance. If" says
DIR. Robinson, "this really is an instance
of protective mimicry, I think it is
probable that the chief foe guarded
against was the eagle. Eagles are very
fond of cat flesh, and it has been re-
marked by naturalists that there form
liable birds habitually make war upon
the smaller felidae."
