From "Life" magazine, 1941 - demonstration of how to hold a distressed or injured cat during an air raid.  The young lady doing the demonstrating looks very elegant - hardly think that things would have been so pretty - or so easy - in a real air raid ... Best regards, JR.

Pacifying Puss.

From a "Life" magazine on appropriate petcare during air raids, 1941 - puss in reinforced cat carrier.  Best regards, JR.

Air raid shelter.

According to "Life" magazine, 1941, this is the proper way to administer a bromide to a cat during an air raid.  As a long-time, experienced cat owner (sorry - servant of cats), I am inclined to think that this would be a very good way to lose one's fingers during an air raid; and I am not thinking about the explosions ...
