Cat: Its Natural History, Varieties and Management

Long before modern breed guides, Philip M. Rule set out to give the household cat the serious attention it deserved. This Victorian manual walks through the cat's natural history, the varieties known in his day, and the practical care of feline companions: feeding, housing, and everyday wellbeing. What emerges is a snapshot of the moment the cat became a true member of the family. Listeners who love cats, or the history of how we came to love them, will find this quiet classic full of charm.
