THE DOMESTIC CAT 



The State Board of Agriculture of Massachusetts has issued a Bulletin — 

 No. 2, on the subject of the domestic cat, and all bird lovers should procure 

 a copy of the same and peruse it as early as possible, and then make it a 

 point to destroy every cat possible, regardless of race, color, or previous 

 condition. The petted and pampered house tabby as well as the alley cat and 

 the half wild cats of the woods are all exceedingly destructive of bird life. 



This bulletin shows the destruction of 170 species of birds of all sizes 

 destroyed by cats, from the most diminutive species up to the size of the goose. 

 The Bob-white, Grouse, Chipping Sparrow, Junco, Song Sparrow, Yellow 

 Warbler, Catbird, Bluebird and Robin leading as to the number destroyed in 

 the several species. 



KILL THE CATS AND SAVE THE BIRDS.
