There are several of the warehouses on the water front that have felines whose breeding especially adapts them to the anti-pest work. Except for mildly frightening rats, the aver age sleek, contented house cat is useless. It has been observed in many cases that the presence of a cat of any kind serves to frighten rats off the premises, but the real benefit has not been fully determined. It has also been observed that the hunting in stinct reaches his highest development in the female cat. Just as the Angora and the HONGKONG, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1909.
