ONE OF cat words he has learned:
"Aclio" is reftiest for food; "aliloo''
is request for water; "lao" expresses
desire fer milk; "b" is demand for red
meat; "bleene-bl" means kitty warts
cooked meat; "ptlee-bl" is mouse meat
and is applied to any food which kitty
fondles before devouring; "meauw,"
uttered simply. is greeting; uttered
fiercely and with accent on me" ex-
presses hatred and defiance; "miouow.
you. wow, %yeiwoyow. TOW, ysssshyow"
IS defiance of battle and Is v~arlously
accented to tell of progress of hosttli-
ties. "Parriere" is request to open
door; "purrieu" is the az. love you"
of cat land, and when uttered with
rolling "r" and rise on the last syllable
is from mother to its kitten.
