Mrs Judith 8. Schofield, who invented the institu- admité tion of cat sitting, she got the idea from baby silting. As far as is known, this is the only organised cat altting effort in the world. It is one of the many activities of the Save A Cat League, Inc, of which Mrs Schofield is president.
The idea is that if you're going on vacation you leave the kitty at home, in the house or apartment, and the sitter comes in-usually twice a day-and feeds 1, changes its pan, and plays with it a little. The ser- vice comes in two handy" sizes -you can hire a sitter, or you can engage in reciprocal cat sitting.

The Leagus tries to put you in touch with someone in your neighbourhood who'll take care while you're on vacation if you return the compliment.
"We Just want to make clear that we take no respon- siblity for the people who do the miiing," Mrs. Schofield said.
The Save A Cat League, a non-profit cutit incorporated in Now York, was founded a year taną a half ago by Mrs Schoßfeld and five other ladies who de cided to try to get other people worked up about the plight of homeless,
