The article presents information on the Manhattan Cat. Like a gray shadow she moves over the face of the city--and disillusionment is in her eyes. She may be black, she may be white, she may be black and white; but always there is that indefinable grayness about her that distinguishes her from other cats. Perhaps there is a cat's heaven, where the streets are paved with eiderdown and the only dogs are toy dogs; where the gutters run with milk and birds are sometimes, not too often, caught. Three kittens were offered homes in the bosom of a refined family. All the comforts were theirs for the taking.
