Book Description
What do we learn from our cats? Everything. Our cats make us better people. If we rescued them, they rescue us back. If we're sad, they comfort us. If we need to have more fun, they show us how. They are our therapists, our role models, and our best friends. Cats can be mysterious and cat owners are eager to understand their behavior and learn how to strengthen the bond between cats and humans. In the book "Our Cats and All About Them - their varieties, habits, and management" Harrison Weir answers the many questions cat owners have.

Book Description
Excerpt from Cats and All About Them IT has been suggested to me by many of my catty friends that I should write a small handbook for cat fanciers. By arrangement with the Kennel Publishing Company I have been enabled to utilise the paragraphs of Practical Pussyology which have appeared during the last fifteen months in Our Cats. I have had many years' ex perience with cats and kittens, and have also a real love for them, without which I do not believe any one can be a successful breeder and exhibitor of cats. What is worth doing at all is worth doing well, and to combine profit with pleasure is a most desirable end to have in view. The object, therefore, of this little book is to assist cat lovers to become cat fanciers. I trust that it may be found helpful and instructive.

Book Description
Excerpt from Our Cats and All About Them: Their Varieties, Habits, and Management; And for Show, the Standard of Excellence and Beauty The following notes and illustrations of and respecting the Cat are the outcome of over fifty years' careful, thoughtful, heedful observation, much research, and not unprofitable attention to the facts and fancies of others. From a tiny child to the present, the love of Nature has been my chief delight; animals and birds have not only been objects of study, but of deep and absorbing interest. I have noted their habits, watched their ways, and found lasting pleasure in their companionship. This love of animal life and Nature, with all its moods and phases, has grown with me from childhood to manhood, and is not the least enjoyable part of my old age.

Book Description
"Written with admirable fullness of knowledge, is very readable....It tells all about the English wild cat, cat proverbs, cat folk-lore, all words including the word cat, the diseases of cats; signs, games, and superstitions associated with cats....It will appeal to the multitude of cat-lovers." -The Atlantic "We have before us a most interesting work, and are assured by the author that it is the outcome of over fifty years' careful and thoughtful observation, combined with much research. Mr. Weir, who certainly ought to know, tells us that the small or large dog may be regarded and petted, but is generally useless; the cat, whether a pet or not, is of service. Were it not for our cats, rats and mice would overrun our houses, buildings, and lands. If there were not millions of cats, there would be billions of vermin. The standard of excellent and beauty with respect to cats is here described." -The Journal of the Postal Microscopical Society "Mr. Weir describes the varieties with painstaking accuracy." -Daily Telegraph "Mr. Harrison Weir has written a charming book in praise of the cat. Mr. Weir undertakes to tell us 'all about them,' and of a truth he leaves little unsaid." -Daily News "Mr. Harrison Weir is one of the greatest authorities on domestic animals. For lovers of the feline tribe this volume will have especial interest." -Morning Post "Mr. Weir discourses pleasantly and learnedly about the several breeds of cats and their characteristics." -Gardeners' Chronicle "Every lover of pussy owes a deep debt of gratitude to Mr. Weir....The latest, the best, most complete, and most readable book on cats ever published." -Poultry "Mr. Weir is president of the National Cat Club of England; but before he was that, and before the club existed, he was the originator of the cat-show at the Crystal Palace, held in the summer of 1871. What they talk of at the Cat Club we may believe to be the 'points' of their pets, and the latest trick or show of wisdom in door-opening or wandering home of these same pets. This is what the book tells of. It is a gossipy book, full of stories of the doings of cats, sprinkled with descriptions of the innumerable kinds, with an account of their diseases, and ending with several chapters on trained cats, and cats that have learned to fish. The author confesses to having been won over to a love of cats from having been their hater, and writes this book that others may see the cat in all its possibilities as a useful, attractive, and affectionate domestic animal....A title well borne out by the contents, so far a much information as the ordinary reader is likely to seek is concerned." -Science
