Evening Republican, Volume 20, Number 132, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 June 1916 — CAT CLEANEST OF ANIMALS [ARTICLE]

CAT CLEANEST OF ANIMALS

Makes Toilet Carefully as Do Other* of Her Kind Cats make the most careful toilet of any class of animals. Lions and tigers wash themselves in exactly the same manner as the cat, wetting the dark, rubberlike ball of the forefoot and inner toe and passing it over the face behind the ears. The foot is thus at the same time a sponge and brush, and the rough tongue deans the rest of the body.
