The cat had looked up, stretched, and lazily gotten upon his feet and followed him, tail waving like a pennant.

He brushed around Von Rosen out in the kitchen, and mewed a little, delicate, highbred mew.

The dog came leaping up the basement stairs, sat up and begged.

Von Rosen opened the ice box and found therein some steak.

He cut off large pieces and fed the cat and dog.
