Hypertrophy, can weigh seven or eight tendons, and the spirit is tame. Every time I put it on the edge of the case, I will call it a jump and beat it with a bamboo tip, so I know how to avoid it.

The above is the ancient people's research on coat color. I have to say that after reading this chapter, I have a great interest in the color of cats. I feel that the ancients did not pay much attention to the variety of cats, but paid considerable attention to the color of cats. For example, the listed 14 coat color is a symbol of good fortune and wealth in the eyes of the ancients, and its names are very pleasant to listen to.
