Description
“I have known, and loved, and studied many cats, but my knowledge of her (Pretty Lady, a cat) alone would convince me that cats love people-in their dignified, reserved way, and when they feel that their love is not wasted; that they reason, and that they seldom act from impulse.” The feelings of Helen Winslow, a solemn and expressive cat friend, of the cats in her lifetime. This story about cats includes: Concerning The Pretty Lady; Concerning My Other Cats; Concerning Other People’s Cats; Concerning Still Other People’s Cats; Concerning Some Historic Cats; Concerning Cats in England; Concerning Cat Clubs and Cat Shows; Concerning High-Bred Cats in America; Concerning Cats in Poetry; Concerning Cat Artists; Concerning Cat Hospitals and Refuges; Concerning the Origin of Cats; Concerning Varieties of Cats; and Concerning Cat Language. She was such a beautiful woman, as well as kind, very tranquil and extremely womanly in her manners, and still respectable and proudly poised as a duchess. Yet it is better, under some situations, to be a cute cat rather than to be a duchess. And no duchess of the world ever had more loyal fees or partly so servile subordinates. Cats love their masters, that only some places have true care on their emotions. The beautiful woman was happy wherever the cat, her very good servant, went with her. She traveled with the cat from every house to sea-shore huts, then to the usual housework. Up to the highlands for a summer, and returning home, a tiring day’s trip on the rail road and her behavior was always “Wheresoever thou goest I will go, and thy people shall be my people.” American writer, much of whose writing supports a moderate Feminism in which the center is likely to be on equality of opportunity among genders, as in the non-fiction A Woman for Mayor: A Novel of To-Day.
