Say hello to this stunning Norwegian Forest Cat queen! Known for their elegant, fluffy coats and enchanting personalities, these cats are a true delight to have around.

Legend has it these cats pulled the goddess Freya’s chariot through the skies. Can’t you just imagine this beauty in a scene like that? 😻
🐾 What Makes Them Special?
• Luxurious Coats: Their dense fur keeps them warm and adds to their regal appearance. They’re basically walking, purring works of art!

Have you ever encountered a Lykoi cat? 🐾 Known as the ‘Werewolf Cat,’ these fascinating felines are unlike any other breed, with their striking appearance and captivating personalities.
The Lykoi breed originated from a natural mutation in domestic shorthair cats. This mutation gives them their unique, partially hairless coats and a wild, wolf-like appearance that earned them their nickname. Their coat often appears patchy, with areas of sparse hair that make them stand out even more. But don’t let their spooky look fool you—Lykoi cats are incredibly affectionate, intelligent, and playful.
These rare cats are known for their curious nature and love of exploration. They’re often compared to dogs for their loyalty and strong bond with their humans. Despite their unique looks, Lykoi cats are just as loving and social as any other feline companion.
What do you think of these extraordinary cats? Have you ever met one or considered adding one to your family? We’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences with the ‘Werewolf Cat.’ Share your opinions in the comments below! 🐺❤️ #ticacats

The holiday season 🎄 is a time for joy, decorations, and cherished moments with loved ones. But for cat owners, the festivities can bring unique challenges. Decorations, special foods, and holiday traditions often come with hidden hazards for feline companions.
By learning how to protect your cats during the holidays, you can celebrate worry-free while ensuring your pet enjoys the season as much as you do.
✅ Food and Drink Precautions.
Holiday meals are a highlight of the season, but many festive foods can be harmful to cats. Here’s how to keep your pet safe from potentially dangerous treats.
🚫 Foods to Avoid: Certain holiday staples are toxic or harmful to cats, even in small amounts.
🚫 Chocolate and Sweets: Chocolate contains theobromine, which is toxic to cats, while many sweets include xylitol, a dangerous sugar substitute.
🚫 Bones and Fatty Foods: Splintered bones can cause choking, and fatty foods can lead to pancreatitis.
🚫 Alcohol and Caffeine: Even a small amount can result in serious health issues, including vomiting and diarrhea.
✅ Setting Up Cat-Safe Food Zones.
To prevent your cat from sneaking a bite of unsafe foods, establish clear boundaries in the kitchen and dining areas.
👉 Use Covered Trash Cans: Prevent your cat from scavenging leftovers or food scraps.
👉 Clean Up Immediately: Dispose of spills and food waste promptly to eliminate temptation.
👉 Offer Cat Treats: Keep a stash of cat-safe treats on hand so your pet can enjoy a festive snack without the risk.
Exotic cats: stunning, controversial, and absolutely captivating. While their unique looks often spark debates, one thing is clear—dedicated breeders and owners go to great lengths to keep them happy and healthy. 🐾 At TICA, judges are strict about putting health first—because isn’t that the ultimate sign of love? 🥰 What are your thoughts on these extraordinary cats?
