'Stranger' Changes Habits
Living in Hornbrook Home
By MRS. H. H. CHAPMAN
Hornbrook A little . "strang
er has arrived to make nis
home, if he 'so desires, with
Mr. and Mrs. Al Kutsky. He
is a ring-tailed, or coon, cat.
The little fellow though full
grown, he . weighs only about
2Vi to 3 pounds has a body
about eleven inches long, while
his "tail measures 18 inches.
As to color, he is sable brown
with a black-and-white ringed
tail similar to a coon's. The
face is small and fox-like, and
his habits are those of a cat.
A pair of mounted antlers on
the wall is his favorite perch.
Caught in Trap
He was caught in a steel trap
in the Mt. Shasta area,, and
Kutsky brought him home about
10 , days ago to have his injured
leg treated, as he suffered a
compound fracture . of a front
leg when the trap snapped on
him. After a get-well diet of
soft-boiled eggs and honey con
taining penicillin administered
by. Mrs. Kutsky, the leg has al
most healed, and he is in the
process now of gnawing off the
now useless paw.
- He is acquiring a" taste now
for ice cream and candy bars!
And as ' further evidence that
he is becoming domesticated and
civilized, he is showing a 'strong
preference for- cookies to raw
meat, though he is earning his
keep by eliminating any mice
or rats.
His natural habits are noctur
nal, but even these he is chang
ing. Mrs. , Kutsky said she en
joys his company in the day
time, and he does his best to
provide entertainment with his
playful antics
Although his family has earn
ed the reputation of being vic
ious, the little fellow has offered
no resistance. : and shows no
signs of aggressiveness.
, Kutsky has been in the trap
ping ; and : taxidermy business
here for several years, and, as
has been his custom, any an
imals caught , accidentally, are
nursed back , to health, when
feasible,.? and are then given
their choice as to whether they
prefer domesticity or a return
to their natural habitat.
The Kutskys recently purchas
ed, and moved into, the Morgan
Gunst Lodge on the Klamath
river. Kutsky also is becoming
established as a guide for hunt
ing, trapping and fishing ex
peditions in northern California.
