Cats Made Comfortable in New Fork.
Marion Loftus, a palrog of the Home for Cats, New York, says: There are about sixty cats in the home now, and you can’t imagine the comfort the poor little tabbies are to those who take an interest in their welfare. The home is attracting attention, and a number of persons have brought in little outcasts. A number of substantial contributions have been received from friends of the home, and I think its success is assured. The cats are well taken care of, provided with milk, a little meat, and warm places to sleep. The “strays,” as we call them, compose a very happy family; they do not fight, and make no noise at night. I don’t believe one complaint has been received on account of the presence of the cats. It Is a mistake to suppose that the weather is colder the further north one goes. The northern pole of greatest co d is only about 300 miles northeast of Yakutsk, Siberia, where the mean annual temperature is a little lower than in the highest latitudes reached by Nares and Ureeley, 1,000 miles further north.
