Llangynfelyn - 'Friends in Fur and Feathers' - Short stories by 'Gwynfryn'

Preface

These little sketches are collected and reprinted from the pages of the Monthly Packet and Aunt Judy's Magazine, where they have at different times appeared. True stories of real pets, they may prove of interest to some who (like all lovers of animals) watch with keen pleasure any traits which seem to endue these "humble fellow creatures" with a higher sort of intelligence than that lowset form of un-reason we have so long called, but never defined, as instinct.

To children, with their quick love and pity, accounts of the wonderful intelligence of animals are always of extreme interest; and for them, especially, these stories were written. Will they remember as they read them the tender pity of the poet's lines -

"Never to blend our pleasure or our pride
With sorrow to the meanest thing that feels."
