Record Tail Cat Draws Attention at Exhibits

An eight month old Persian cat with a tall 18 inch wide tail is housed by J W Geltz of Ranier Valley and to be shown today at the A L Hall store on First avenue. Geltz, a Bedwell Cattery devotee from Ranier Reach, has long studied cats and believes this animal may be unique in its tail width. The black and white cat, unusually large for a house pet, features a dramatic tail as it explores its surroundings. Geltz hopes the tail will widen as the cat grows, though uncertainty remains.
