The cold produces more hair, andwith the Angora the more hair better the animal. If acat has an opportunity of resting occasionally in somewarm place, there will be no harm in allowing it to roamabout in the cold cellar, or out of doors for that matter,but we would not advise letting one of these expensivelittle pets be obliged to stay in a cold cellar where it isliable to be damp and chilly.

A well trained ani-mal will behave himself and enjoy the privilege of watch-ing objects, and during this time it gets a great deal offresh air and is a great deal better for having it.
