Book excerpt: “A cat-centric biography of Julia Child? Why not? . . . The many feline fanciers out there will surely enjoy the photographs of the cats.” —Chicago Tribune The world knows Julia Child as the charismatic woman who brought French cuisine to America and became a TV sensation, but there’s one aspect of her life that’s not so familiar. Soon after the Childs arrived in Paris in 1948, a French cat appeared on their doorstep, and Julia recalled, “Our domestic circle was completed.” Minette captured Julia’s heart, igniting a lifelong passion for cats equaled only by her love of food and her husband, Paul. All the cherished feline companions who shared Julia’s life—in Paris, Provence, and finally California—reminded her of that magical time in Paris when her life changed forever. From Julia’s and Paul’s letters and original interviews with those who knew her best, Patricia Barey and Therese Burson have gathered fresh stories and images that offer a delightfully intimate view of a beloved icon. “It’s clear that all the cats that passed through her life gave her joy and comfort, probably in ways that food and even Paul could not. Having that perspective of this grande dame makes her seem all the more human and wonderfully admirable to me.” —Epicurious “This compact, entertaining read is filled with personal photos and letters that document the role cats played in Julia’s life as she moved from Paris to Provence, Cambridge to California.” —Shelf Awareness “Brings this little known aspect of Julia Child’s life to light in an engaging and entertaining way.” —The Conscious Cat

Download or read book Raising a Chartreux Cat written by Rex Lewis and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-05-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chartreux is a unique and endearing domestic cat species that has gained recognition for its historical importance, graceful disposition, and distinctive appearance. Originating in France, the Chartreux is characterized by a short, dense garment that resembles wool or plushness to the touch and a robust, muscular build. This particular breed is distinguished by its rounded facial structure, expressive eyes that vary in hue from gold to copper, and a distinctive smile that imparts a delicate and endearing countenance. The Chartreux is distinguished by its moderate to substantial stature, broad torso, and comparatively short legs. The undersides of their coat, which is typically blue-gray in hue and has a silvery luster, may be lighter in tone. Two to four years of age is when the breed reaches full maturation and acquires its complete coat coloration, which contributes to its reputation for gradual development. - The tranquil and delicate disposition of Chartreux cats makes them ideal companions for both individuals and families. In general, they develop close relationships with their human caregivers and are sociable. They exhibit a remarkable degree of agility and can be playful and enthusiastic about interactive activities despite their relaxed disposition. Additionally, this breed is renowned for its intelligence, which enables it to easily learn tricks or commands and acclimate to a variety of environments. - The Chartreux, which boasts a centuries-long history, is entangled in folklore and legend. According to some accounts, these felines accompanied Carthusian priests residing in the Chartreuse region of France; thus, the breed's name. This historical assertion imbues the Chartreux's background with an aura of mystique and romanticism, despite the fact that its veracity is contested. In addition to its attractive appearance, the Chartreux is a delighted and affectionate companion, which contributes to its widespread adoption among individuals in search of a feline companion with a distinct and eventful past.

Its most immediate pre-domestication ancestor is the African wild cat, Felis silvestris lybica. The cat has been living in close association with humans for at least 3,500 years; the Ancient Egyptians routinely used cats to keep mice and other rodents (mostly rats) away from their grain (and also believed that cats were sacred to the goddess Bastet). The history of the domestic cat may stretch back even further, as 8,000-year-old bones of humans and cats were found buried together on the island of Cyprus.
