Then if by some accident the right hand is lost, they would not be quite helpless. As for the felines, they retain the full power of their claws by constant use. So, because the claws are very useful, every feline takes care of its claws, especially the tiger. Why, the tiger cleans his claws every day! In the jungle there are many trees that have a soft bark.
Tartarin of Tarascon had a corner of the inside, where he installed himself most free-and-easily: and, preliminarily to inspiring the rank emanations of the great African felines, the hero had to content himself with that homely old odour of the stage-coach, oddly composed of a thousand smells, of man and woman, horses and harness, eatables and mildewed straw.
But, like Kipling's cat, he "walked by himself." His paw was against every cat, and every cat's paw against him. One by one he vanquished the aristocratic felines of Spofford Avenue. As for human beings, he loved Anne and Anne alone. Nobody else even dared stroke him. An angry spit and something that sounded much like very improper language greeted any one who did.
Some certainly spied him, for these wretches could see as lucidly as the felines in the night their day from society having reversed their conditions.
That is, the dog moves its legs very quickly, but each space of ground it covers is not very long. A cat moves its legs not quite so quickly, but the space of ground it covers at each bound is much longer. The cat and all felines can give a bigger bound because of the muscles under their paws.
It imported cats. Descendants of the felines of Earth still survived, but one had only to look at their frustrated, neurotic expressions to know that they were failures. The government set traps. The dinies ate their springs and metal parts. It offered bounties for dead dinies. But the supply of dinies was inexhaustible, and the supply of money was not. It had to be stopped.
That doesn't explain why the lions aren't ruling the planet. The trouble is, it would defeat itself in the beginning. It would have too bitterly stressed the struggle for existence. Conflict and struggle make civilizations virile, but they do not by themselves make civilizations. Mutual aid and support are needed for that. There the felines are lacking.
I have just overheard an interview between her and Stanton." "That woman!" ejaculated the doctor. "That cat!" "Felines scratch," Nancy shrugged her shoulders disdainfully. "Stanton is fighting the devil with fire." "Be careful, Nancy; don't undervalue your opponents," cautioned the doctor. "I flatter myself I am a match for Mrs. Bennett," retorted Nancy, "and forewarned is forearmed."
For a cat or any other feline to see, there must be at least a tiny bit of light even if the light is not sufficient for a human being. The eyes of the Cat Tribe are formed in such a manner as to catch the tiniest bit of light. That is why the lion, the tiger, and all other felines can see at night in the jungle. For there are usually a few stars visible, even when there are passing clouds.
You may be sure that the vast numbers of reptiles are not left out of the human representation, and the birds, too. The "eagle eye," and the carnivorous beak require no introduction to the menagerie, they belong there. But the felines have it, the cats, little and big, monopolize the show.
