     If the ``join`` keyword is not passed, the method :meth:`~Series.str.cat` will currently fall back to the behavior before version 0.23.0 (i.e. no alignment),
     but a ``FutureWarning`` will be raised if any of the involved indexes differ, since this default will change to ``join='left'`` in a future version.
 
-To usual options are available for ``join`` (one of ``'left', 'outer', 'inner', 'right'``).

 In particular, alignment also means that the different lengths do not need to coincide anymore.
