212 RABBITS, CATS, AND CAVIES 



The eyes are not particularly large, of rich amber 

 colour, and very brilliant in expression. 



The colour on the sides is freely ticked or pencilled, 

 but on the legs and thighs appear slightly-marked stripes, 

 and on the tail are rings of the same colour. 



In tone of voice it is more like the Siamese than any 

 other cat with which we are familiar, and it is found to 

 vary in this respect at different times. 



Except in point of colour, it is more like what we 

 know as the Abyssinian or Bunny Cat than any other 

 variety seen at exhibitions in this country, but there is 

 no reason to suppose it is a variety of the same animal, 

 being thought to be a native product of India, and not 

 found in any other country.
