ANGORA CATS. 



The possession of an Angora Cat has 

 become a fad, particularly in fashionable 

 circles, and you will not wonder when you 

 have made the acquaintance of a beautiful 

 affectionate Angora Cat. The hair is long, 

 soft and silky, and their tails are used 

 very gracefully, and express emotions as 

 plainly as words. When displeased, the 

 tail is swayed from side to side in a man- 

 ner, the meaning of which cannot be mis- 

 taken. The eyes are large, playful and full 

 of expression. The animals are beautifully 

 formed and are considerably longer than 

 the ordinary cat. They are wonderful 

 jumpers, very exquisite, and want to un- 

 derstand everything that is going on. They 

 are affectionate and loving, very graceful, 

 and have most charming manners and dis- 

 positions, unusual intelligence, and, as 

 naturally follows, great dignity and vanity.
