Library Cats
August 8 is International Cat Day! I must confess that our striped tabby, Tiger Belle, was less than impressed with our low-key celebration, although she did love the extra crunchy treats. This celebratory day in honor of our feline friends was established by the International Fund for Animal Welfare. Here is another cat from the Bell Library collection to enjoy. It was used as a printer's mark by the Venetian Sessa family, active in the printing and book trade in Venice from 1501 to 1617.
