The animals were kept in cages, singly at first; later, after the kittens 
had become quite large, they were kept in pairs. The long confinement 
did not seem to disagree with them. All of the animals were unusually 
fine in their appearance and disposition, except that toward the close of 
the experiment cats i and 2 apparently suffered from the effects of the 
long confinement—in their case considerably over a year.

Feeding. —Twice every day, at 9 a. m. and 3 p. m., liberal piortions of 
the veal food were transferred to the feeding pans and placed in the cages. 
The animals apparently found the food very acceptable in spite of the 
monotony of the diet. No attempt was made to regulate the amount of 
food consumed by any animal; they ate as much as they pleased. All of 
the boiled veal was eaten; not a single lot of the food was found to be dis¬ 
tasteful to the animals or in any way noticeably injurious.
