Excerpt from The Cat: An Introduction to the Study of Backboned Animals, Especially Mammals Biology is the science which treats of all living organisms, from Man to the lowest plant. No natural science is at present more keenly pursued or with more effect. The advances of Astronomy and Geology have produced great changes in men's minds during the last three centuries: Biology is producing changes at least as great, in the present age. So rapid has been its progress that the Natural History of Animals and Plants needs to be rewritten the field of Nature being surveyed from a new stand-point. Such a history may be written in two ways: (1) Living beings may be treated as one whole, their various powers and the more general facts as to their organization being successively portrayed as they exist in the whole series; or (2) one animal (or plant) may be selected as a type and treated of in detail, other types, successively more divergent in structure from the first, being described afterwards. In following the latter mode, we may either begin with one of the most simply organised of living creatures and gradually ascend to the highest and most complex in structure; or we may commence with the latter, and thence descend to the consideration of the lowest kinds of animated beings.

Why our cats are a danger to species diversity and human health In 1894, a lighthouse keeper named David Lyall arrived on Stephens Island off New Zealand with a cat named Tibbles. In just over a year, the Stephens Island Wren, a rare bird endemic to the island, was rendered extinct. Mounting scientific evidence confirms what many conservationists have suspected for some time—that in the United States alone, free-ranging cats are killing birds and other animals by the billions. Equally alarming are the little-known but potentially devastating public health consequences of rabies and parasitic Toxoplasma passing from cats to humans at rising rates. Cat Wars tells the story of the threats free-ranging cats pose to biodiversity and public health throughout the world, and sheds new light on the controversies surrounding the management of the explosion of these cat populations. This compelling book traces the historical and cultural ties between humans and cats from early domestication to the current boom in pet ownership, along the way accessibly explaining the science of extinction, population modeling, and feline diseases. It charts the developments that have led to our present impasse—from Stan Temple's breakthrough studies on cat predation in Wisconsin to cat-eradication programs underway in Australia today. It describes how a small but vocal minority of cat advocates has campaigned successfully for no action in much the same way that special interest groups have stymied attempts to curtail smoking and climate change. Cat Wars paints a revealing picture of a complex global problem—and proposes solutions that foresee a time when wildlife and humans are no longer vulnerable to the impacts of free-ranging cats.

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.

Our Cats and All about Them - Their Varieties, Habits, and Management and for Show, the Standard of Excellence and beauty - By Harrison Weir.Originally published in 1889 this rare book has long been considered a classic among cat books. It is now very hard to find in its first edition. Read Country Books have republished it, using the original text and illustrations as part of their History of the Cat series. The author spent over fifty years carefully researching the history, and observing the nature of the cat in preparation for writing this important work. He noted their habits, watched their ways and found lasting pleasure in their companionship. The book abounds with Harrison Weir's beautiful engravings of cat varieties and associated subjects. Two hundred and sixty pages contain many comprehensive chapters on the ways of the cat, its habits, instincts, peculiarities, usefulness, colours, markings, forms, etc. Other chapters deal with the folk and other lore, including superstitions and proverbs, both ancient and modern, connected with the cat. Of much interest to the serious cat enthusiast will be the notes and descriptions on the various varieties of cat: Long Haired Cats The Angora, The Persian Cat, The Russian Long Haired Cat, The Tortoiseshell Cat, Tabby Cats, The Abyssinian, White Cats, Black Cats, Manx Cats, and Various Others. Also included is information on breeding, mating, diseases, showing, points etc. This is a fascinating and well illustrated read for any cat lover or historian of the breeds, but also contains much information that is still useful and practical today. Many of the earliest cat books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Read Country Books are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
