AUNT CYNTHIA'S PERSIAN CAT\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMax always blesses the animal when it is referred to; and I don't\u003cbr\u003edeny that things have worked together for good after all.  But\u003cbr\u003ewhen I think of the anguish of mind which Ismay and I underwent\u003cbr\u003eon account of that abominable cat, it is not a blessing that\u003cbr\u003earises uppermost in my thoughts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI never was fond of cats, although I admit they are well enough\u003cbr\u003ein their place, and I can worry along comfortably with a nice,\u003cbr\u003ematronly old tabby who can take care of herself and be of some\u003cbr\u003euse in the world.  As for Ismay, she hates cats and always did.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Aunt Cynthia, who adored them, never could bring herself to\u003cbr\u003eunderstand that any one could possibly dislike them.  She firmly\u003cbr\u003ebelieved that Ismay and I really liked cats deep down in our\u003cbr\u003ehearts, but that, owing to some perverse twist in our moral\u003cbr\u003enatures, we would not own up to it, but willfully persisted in\u003cbr\u003edeclaring we didn't.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOf all cats I loathed that white Persian cat of Aunt Cynthia's.\u003cbr\u003eAnd, indeed, as we always suspected and finally proved, Aunt\u003cbr\u003eherself looked upon the creature with more pride than affection.\u003cbr\u003eShe would have taken ten times the comfort in a good, common puss\u003cbr\u003ethat she did in that spoiled beauty.  But a Persian cat with a\u003cbr\u003erecorded pedigree and a market value of one hundred dollars\u003cbr\u003etickled Aunt Cynthia's pride of possession to such an extent that\u003cbr\u003eshe deluded herself into believing that the animal was really the\u003cbr\u003eapple of her eye.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079641415920,"sku":"2940013521759","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013521759_p0.jpg?v=1763582417","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013521759","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
