Hello Cat Lovers.
Happy International Cat Day!
So much cuteness out there ready for a furever home. Always remember your local adoption and rescue centers when you're ready for your own ball of cuteness.

Why do cats love the sun soooooo much?
Share your sunbeam kitty pics.

• Thermoregulation

Cats have a higher body temperature than humans, between 100.5°F and 102.5°F! Sunlight helps cats maintain their body temperature while conserving energy. So they can wake you up at 4am.

• Sleep

We all know cats sleep- A LOT. Their body temperature drops as they sleep. Sunlight warms them up again after they've been lazy all day.

• Energy

Cats have high metabolisms and burn a lot of energy when they've got the zoomies. Sunlight can be a fab energy source for them.

• Serotonin

Just like for humans, getting enough sunlight helps produce serotonin, a natural antidepressant. It makes them feel good! Give me a beach and the sun on my face any day of the week!

• Skin and coat

Cats get about 30% of the nutrients they need from keeping their skin and coat velvety smooth. That sunbeam is filled with lovely vitamins. Spa day for your cat! Sign me up for a daily spa day!

Thanks to all the lawmakers that voted to make declawing cats illegal in my state of Virginia!

Your dog isn't the only one upset by fireworks.

The panic brought on by fireworks can cause wildlife moms to abandon their babies and be too disoriented to find their way home.

Squirrels, small mammals, birds and butterflies have been known to exhibit detrimental, even life threatening behavior as a result of fireworks, while waterbirds and fish perish after ingesting fireworks' debris.

This summer, celebrate in a way that does no harm.
Celebrate without fireworks.

It's the time of year to remember our pets are feeling the heat. If you are hot, they are hotter! ☀️
Rather than piling them up with ice cubes, fill milk jugs with water and freeze them for an easy way to keep your animals cool. Place them around areas where your pets can chill out. ❄️😺🐶
Most important, never, ever leave your pets in a hot car, not even for a minute!!!!!

Added idea from Furever Friends Lodge : WE suggest filling larger (11") balloons with water, tie and freeze...then take the balloons off (throw away) and put the frozen BALLS in water outside to keep ferals water cool, the deer like them too in our big water tub.....

When I get reincarnated, I want to come back as one of my house cats. 😁

This is Shelby. Most of the time she's a lovely girl. But, like the little girl, who had a little curl, Shelby has her feisty moments.
I have loved helping her grow into a great companion for me and my tabby, Poppet.
If you have your own little trouble maker and need help, give me a call. They are just cats trying their best! Let's help them become the lovely companions we hope them to be.

One of the things I enjoy most is teaching about cat body language. The way their ears and tail act like divining rods for emotions is truly fabulous!
But those magical cat eyes that weaken our human hearts...there's the real winner.
You want to know if a cat wants to love you or eat you? Watch those magical eyes.

Poppet says, "Wow! Look! Check out all the awesomeness".
Cats can fill our lives with daily meditations. Take a moment to watch and listen.

#CaringForCats

For indoor cats and bored rainy days, teach your cat to fetch! For real. 1) Discover a reward they really like. For my Shelby here, she lives to get pats. 2) Get them excited about the game. Use an excited voice! 3) Toss a favorite toy. When they grab it, choose a word that tells them they succeeded. I use "Good Job!". 4) Tap a place on the floor where you would like them to drop it. It will help them stay focused. 5) Give that special reward. It might be pats or a treat. 6) End the game on a positive feeling for the cat. If it goes on too long, they can get bored and decide the game isn't fun anymore. And cats really don't have a long attention span. 😝😽 #playingwithcats
