Last Friday was International Cat Day! Everyday in the Sliwa household we celebrate our rescue cats. Nancy and I have rescued countless abused or neglected cats, dogs and animals over the years, and then adopt them to loving families.

As Mayor, I will put violent animal abusers in jail, deliver no kill shelters, and offer adoption incentives for animals waiting for a forever home. We will also plant more trees in every borough & increase and clean our green spaces to make our city more nature friendly. Remember- you can also vote for me on the Protect Animals Independent line.

As Mahatma Gandhi said, “The greatness of a nation can be judged by the way its animals are treated.”

Meet 5-year-old Shon Griffin, lovingly known as “Catman,” a tiny superhero making a big impact in Philadelphia. Every weekend, Shon dresses up in his superhero costume and joins his aunts to feed and care for over 50 stray and rescue cats. With incredible dedication and a heart full of compassion, he’s become a local legend in the rescue community.

What makes Shon truly special is not just his costume it’s his calming presence. Many of the feral cats his family tried to care for would run away from others, but somehow, they feel safe around him. His gentle nature and fearless spirit have helped gain the trust of cats that were once considered unapproachable.

Shon’s mission started as a fun activity with his family, but it quickly turned into something much greater. The joy he gets from helping animals and the way he connects with them proves that kindness has no age limit. While most kids his age are playing with toys, Shon is out saving lives, one paw at a time.
His superhero mask might be pretend, but the impact he’s making is very real.

When a cat is purring you went it on you or near by. If you are sad and it sits on your lap its recalibrating you.

People constantly ask why I do what I do when it costs money out of my own pocket. When I have my own indoor cats to tend to.

My answer?

Because somewhere down the line, a human let them down. Either they were dumped off, their parents were dumped off, or their great-grandparents, etc.
Because people may have been feeding them, but nobody bothered to neuter them so that they wouldn’t keep giving birth to kittens who would potentially suffer and die out there.

So that feral kittens would no longer be dropped off at shelters and healthy shelter cats who had been waiting for homes would be euthanized to “make room”.

So that Toms would never have to fight for territory or mates anymore. So that they could live healthier, happier lives. Feral Cat Caregivers are unsung and often misunderstood heroes! You may “think” that we aren’t making a difference in the world because we haven’t won a Nobel Peace Prize or aren’t making six-figure incomes. But to that feral cat, we have changed THEIR entire world. And that’s ALWAYS enough!
