What You Say About Cats

other breeds or colors to pre-
serve the blood line.
A good domestic Short-hair
has a powerful body with a
full, broad chest. Its short
tail is thick at the base and
tapers toward a point. Tails
are very important features
with cats and should be car
ried nearly level with the
back. The domestic short
hair comes in various color
patterns, tabby tortoise shell,
spotted or solid. But should
there be any flaw, any white
hairs on a black cat. the feline
is, 1t seems, a mere "alley cat
One of the most popular
breeds at shows today is the
long-hair, or Persian. Once
there were two long hair vari-
etieS, the Angora as well as
the Persian. But because of
the Angora's extreme delicacy.
1t was crossed with the Per-
sian to make the contempo-
rary long-hair variety.
Most gracious and indolent
of cats, although by far the
biggest eater, the long-hair is
characterized by a short body
set on short, stalky legs with
a broad chest and bushy tail.
Its ears are small and its head
round with a short nose. It's
fur is long and very fluffy.
To many people. the 1.-the
Siamese Is the wonder Of all
cats. For centuries, 1t was
confined to the court of the
King of Siam and it was not
until 1884 that it was taken
to England. The Siamese
comes in two colors, sealpoint
and bluepoint. The points
legs, ears, tail and mask-of
the former are seal brown
with a pale fawn body. The
points Of the latter are deep
blue against a pale blue or
cream body.
Most unobtruSive and quiet
of cats is the gentle Abyssin-
ian. Introduced to the West
ern World about 1875, it usu-
ally has a brown ground color.
Each hair Is marked by at
least two bands of dark brown
or black producing an effect
known as ticking" There
are no AbySsinian cats in the
Washington vicinity. but Mrs,
Mary Hantzmon, 3l2 Maryland
avenue NE, was the first
Evening star., 1951-05-13

person in the United States
to import the variety. The
voice of the Abyssinian Is the
softest and most musical of
all cat voices.
Perhaps the Manx is the
most unusual cat to the lay
man. It has no tail. Origi-
mating on the Isle of Man, the
Manx was probably first culti-
waited as a joke. It's excep-
tionally long hind legs give it
a hopping gait not unlike
that of a rabbit. The color
may be solid, tabby or of any
other pattern, but the slight
est hint of a tail diSqualifies
it Immediately from a cat
show.
