There is more cruelty practised upon cats than upon any other animal." At the root of the entire situation is the following fact: Affection for a kitten does not mean affection for a cat. Everyone loves a kitten. No one can resist the charms of a play- ful round ball of fur. But in a few months when kittenhood is past, the cat is regarded as something of a nuisance. Most cats are taken into homes as kittens; a plaything for the children. When the cute kittenish ways are gone there remains a cat upon which the door of the home is closed; « scavenger to frequent the alleys and the refuse piles; a song- ster to make the night hiedous with its complaints. Friendship between cats and their owners are rarely lasting. For one thing cats are disgustingly fond of bringing miniature editions of them- selves into the world. A litter of five or six kittens two or three times a year rarely pleases anyone but the small boy and girl and Mrs. Mouser. A dog becomes attached to a person; a cat to a home cr a locality. Wit- ness the many cats which are carried into a new street when families move. In the majority of cases puss returns to her old haunts, leaving the family catless apd somewhat reliev~ ed. Witness also the many gaunt denizens of shell-wrecked Furopean villages which soldiers of the Allies, in their forward march, have found among the ruins, Tom and his wife did not join ir the exodus from the once prosperous village. Love of the locality was strong and the couple chose to remain. Tales of horror'from the Island and from Muskoka reach officials of the Humane S6ciety every aptumn. A kitten for the children usually ac- companies the family when, at the beginning of warm weather, the sum- mer home is occupied. Upon the re- turn to the eity in the fall the now matured cat is left to shift for itself; to endure the rigors of a severe win- ter; to starve to death, or failing to die, to revert to the wild stage and procreate itself. And a cat clings tenaciously to life, suffering agonies | I Buffalo. Buffalo, +S8ept. 26.--Cattle, Veals, receipts, East receipts 150, steady. steady, $4.50.

To abandon a cat under such conditions is a carefree cruelty which arouses the ire of the Humane Boclety workers as does nothing else.

But when the motor van was put into opera- tion, to meet the expenses -of tires, gasoline, and upkeep, a small fee was fixed for each trip which the motor was called upon to make to residents who did not wish to bring their pets to the society, It was felt' that individuals would then not have their independence sacrificed by pub- lie charity being thrust upon them, For the superfluous cat.the com- mittee in, charge of the work fixed the boundary between personal inde- pendence and charity at a quarter. | For the superfluous cat a consid. erable section of the public made an- And the conflict which has since been waged has in many instances resulted in triumph for those wha determined there should be no quar- ter for the cat.
