life we have always been a dog family. We have no objection to cats; I don’t dislike cats (the dog does) and can tolerate and take considerable interest in all kinds of other small crea tures but, somehow to us, none of them seem to gen erate the same warmth and affection which ema nates so naturally from members of the canine
