Présentation de l'éditeur

National Cat Show became au estabhshed fact, and inqnuies were being made in regard to the classification and qnalities of cats, I learned that none of the booksellers inN ew York had any literatnre npon the cat except a technical book byS t. George Mivart: The Gat: An Introduction to theS tndy of Backboned A nimals, and the smaller book of Gordon Stables. I determined to prepare the present guide, which I present to the public interested in the useful stable-companion and pretty house-pet. Unfortunately, Twas moving my office to theN ew York College of Veterinary Surgeons at the time, and many of my books, manuscripts, and personal notes were boxed up and have been unavailable for reference.
