**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!**

Happy National Cat Day from your favorite House Tiger!!

My mom is wondering why she and my dad didn't have today off. Isn't this a national holiday?

How are we kitties supposed to be pampered all day long if our humans have to work?

I have suggested that my parents both look into using vacation days for this momentous occasion next year.

That way we will not need to wait until 5:00 p.m. for the festivities commence!

Wishing you all a wonderful National Cat Day and a great week! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

I like my new little brother Worthy Wolf. I like him so much, that I am even willing to share my food with him! (As you know, I am quite fond of my food, so sharing it isn't my usual behavior.) But my new puddy sibling is really quite sweet, very smart, and blind like me. I think he sort of needs me. And maybe, I need him a little bit too. Mom says when you rescue a furry friend, they rescue you right back! Have a happy week! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!**

Lately, it seems like lots of people are having a difficult time. Whether it's work stress, health issues, things like car or home repairs, or problems for our family or friends; my mom says many of us currently have 'too much on our plates.' (I'm not sure that I've ever seen a plate with too much on it, but I digress.)

I thought I would offer some House Tiger suggestions on how to find a little bit of peace when things get too crazy.

- Take an afternoon nap in a nice sunny spot.

- Snuggle up with someone who also needs cuddles.

- Find a favorite old toy and play with it again.

- Offer others head bumps and purrs, for no real reason. (Hugs and giggles will suffice if you happen to be human.)

- Think of five things in your life that you are really, truly thankfully for.

-Remember that tomorrow, you get a whole, brand new day!

Wishing you all more peace, less stress, and a very Happy Tail Tuesday! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

Today I am thinking of all the people and pets impacted by Hurricane Helene. I wish that they readily receive all the help they need. I pray that the lost kitties, dogs and other pets find their way home. I hope that all my people friends in affected states are safe. I am feeling very fortunate today to have a roof over my head and a warm dry place to sleep. - TBJC. 🐅🧡

HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

There are now three blind kitties in our big old house! Welcome baby Worthy Wolf! We love you already! We are very sorry you had a difficult start in life. We promise that from now on you will always be surrounded by boundless love! Isabella and I look forward to guiding you, and many years of snuggling and playing! We are so very lucky to have you in our lives. - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

My mom is very excited! One of her most favorite people in the world is moving back home! After being all the way across the country for many years, my Auntie Denise is coming back to Wisconsin in just 10 days! Our family is very happy about this. I am looking forward to her return, because Denise really likes us kitties! And she likes to stay in and have 'movie nights' under quilts, so we can cuddle with her! We missed her very much and are all very lucky to be getting her back! Just 10 more days! I can't wait!! Keep your loved ones close, and have a Happy Tail Tuesday! - 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

Last week my mom and dad saw this pretty white kitty just sitting in our front yard. Mom tried to approach this puddy to see if she had a tag with her home information, but she ran away when mom got close. So my mom put a post on the community page asking if anyone was missing a cat, along with this picture. Very soon after, a nice man knocked on the door of our big old house. He said that this was his family's kitty, and she has been lost for three weeks! She apparently snuck out the doggy door with her doggy siblings, and got over the fence. They have been missing her very much! My mom has her dad's phone number now, and will let him know if she comes back to our yard. Others in town will be watching for her as well. Hopefully she will soon find her way home safely. 🩷 - TBJC 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

The month is now September. It is getting cooler by our big old house. The human kittens have gone back to school. I see them walking past with backpacks, books, and lunches in paper bags. It's almost Fall! Autumn is my mom and dad's favorite time of the year! The leaves change into pretty colors before they fall from the trees. Yummy pumpkin and apple treats appear in the stores. The daylight gets shorter, and snuggling night time longer. Warm, comfy blankets come out. Lots of nice things to look forward to! Wishing you all a wonderful first week if September! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!**

I am a fully grown cat. A mature House Tiger. However, sometimes I act like a comical kitten.

Out of the blue, I engage in endearing baby cat like silliness. I may fling a toy about again and again, and jump after it very high. I might gallop through a room by myself for no apparent reason. Or, I may chase my own tail round and round in my mom's bathroom sink, much to my parents' delight.

I am not the only adult puddy in our big old house to engage in such shenanigans. All of my cat siblings relive their kittenhood from time to time; to all of our enjoyment.

My mom says this is perfectly acceptable behavior. These actions are also not limited to felines. Humans are very capable of temporarily reverting to immature activities as well.

Mom is pretty much known for acting goofy and un-adult like. Many have witnessed her squeal loudly at a store upon seeing an exceptionally cute stuffy. She frequently says "YIPPEEEEE' when she is pleased about something. She can never resist a couple trys at a claw machine.

Don't even get me started on my dad and his infamous "sonic fart machine." One time he even brought it to a friend's cookout! When confronted by mom for such immature antics, dad defensively once said: "Reclaiming my chilhood!" Then mom and dad laughed and laughed.

Reclaim a little bit of your childhood this week. - TBJC. 🐅🧡

***HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

Who can find me in the picture below? Mom says that I am camouflaged! Mom calls these throws with this pattern my "John E. Tomasso blankets." Sometimes my mom and dad will see someone out and about wearing a shirt, sweater, scarf, or other piece of clothing like this; point it out, and say: "She has a John E. Tomasso dress on!" Others may then ask if that is a famous Italian designer. My parents explain: "No, that's our cat." Some people find this amusing, or even flattering. Others, not so much. Do you have any John E. Tomasso pieces in your wardrobe? Feel free to post a picture in the comments. Have a fabulous week!! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

My mom had a lady tell her that she liked her shirt the other day. This made mom feel happy. Mom hopes that lady knows she made her day just a little better.

If you like what a person is wearing, or if you notice that a kitty's fur is quite soft, tell them! You almost always get a "thank you", a smile, or a head butt in return.

It doesn't take much effort to spread a bit of happiness. Your simple compliment may really brighten another's day.

So tell you puddy brother that his tail is majestic!

Let your coworker know their new shoes are snazzy!

Let your sister cat know she has a lovely sounding purr!

You often find that the positive energy you give out comes right back to you. - TBJC 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!**

My mom really likes pictures where puddies are shown wearing outfits like those which people would wear.

Mom told me depictions of animals such as the one below on the right are called "anthropomorphic."

Mom also knows that if she actually tried to dress my siblings and I in such getups, she would likely be in need of a lot of band aids.

Some doggies do really seem to like to dress up; but us kitties - not so much.

So my mom just enjoys looking at these pictures of cats in human attire and, thankfully, does not try to reenact the scenes.

(Mom does, however, think my sister Esperanza would look exceptionally fabulous in one one these beautiful Victorian coats!)

Wishing you all a nice week! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

Did you know that Monday was International Tiger Day? This was to help raise awareness that tigers are in danger of extinction. There are estimated to only be about 5500 tigers living in the wild. This classifies them as endangered. Their territories have been greatly reduced. Traffickers capture two tigers per week, on average. This is very sad. Tigers (like House Tigers) are quite special big puddies. Tigers are the largest wildcats. Tigers can be six to ten feet long! Boy tigers can weigh up to 680 pounds! Tigers are different from House Tigers in a few different ways. Tigers eat about once a week. I would starve! I eat several times a day! Also, Tigers are good swimmers. I prefer not to even get my paws wet! I sure hope tigers are around for many years to come! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

My mom likes animal trivia. Especially cat trivia. Here are a few lesser known facts about felines.

Did you know that a kitty's nose print is as unique as a person's fingerprint? Pretty cool, huh?

Many think puddies are nocturnal. But actually, they are crepuscular, meaning they are most active at dawn and dusk.

Interestingly, meowing is a behavior that cats developed specifically to communicate with humans, rather than with other cats.

Mom thinks if there was a show like "Jeopardy", but only asked questions about kittens, she would win big money!

Wishing you a week full of interesting tidbits! - TBJC 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!**

I am not a perfect kitty. I sometimes p*e on things I shouldn't. Recently, I swatted my brother Tino in the head. But my mom still loves me. After I whacked Valentino, she told me that was not a kind thing to do, and to please not do it again. But she didn't say that now I'm a 'bad cat.' She reminded herself of all the medical challenges I've been through; the dark days when the kitty doctors said the outlook wasn't good. She remembered the countless nice and fun times with me, full of purrs and snuggles. She knows that my few moments of less than stellar behavior do not define the kind of puddy that I am. She recognizes how much companionship and joy I have brought her, and vise versa. She balances my rare bad actions with all the days, months, and years of good. And she's never given up on me. Ever. That's what love is. - TBJC. 🐅🧡

(P.S. House Tiger Tip: Try to resist the urge to swat others in the noggin. Even if you're really mad.)

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

My mom told me some some very exciting news in the world of wild puddies! Over the past year, 22 Scottish Wildcats were released in secret locations in a nature preserve/national park in Scottland. This June, trail cameras confirmed the birth of at least two sets of Wildcat kittens! This is great news for this endangered species, also known as Highland Tigers. The kits look to be full Wildcats, and not kitties that are half domestic cat. That means the Highland Tigers found each other, and made kitties!! Mom says the Scottish Wild puddies are kind of poofy, and look sort of like the American Lynx. She posted a picture of a mom and kittens below, next to the picture of me! Wishing you all a great week!! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

My mom thought this meme was funny, and so she shared it on her own page. Since I was feeling camera shy tonight, I told her she could share it on my page too. Some people like fancy new cars. Others prefer to travel to far away places. Then there are the humans like my parents that just love to spoil their kitties! Pursue what ever makes you happy! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

*HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

My sister Isabella (aka Muffin, aka Muffy-Muffington) went to the groomers yesterday. She got her usual "summer" kitty haircut. Muffin has long, poofy fur which can get tangled. It is also hot for her in warm weather. I have short, smooth fur, so I don't need to get furcuts. I am happy about that, as I really don't like to leave our big old house. My brother Meatball went to the groomers today. He has spots that he can't reach, because he's a bit "husky." I can reach all of my fur. I am quite bendy. My brother Valentino went to the groomers once, but that didn't go so well. Now Tiny Tino has to go to the vet and get made sleepy in order to get his haircut. Do any of your puddies get furcuts? Do they behave themselves like Meatball and Muffy-Muffington? Any kitties not get invited back to the groomers like Tino? Let me know! - TBJC.

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

In one of my mom's Facebook cat groups, someone posted: "Describe a cat in three words."

My mom's answer was: "Furry purring love."

What is your three word description of a cat?

Mine would obviously be: "Fierce House Tiger."

I think we kitties should get to describe a human in three words. I have a few suggestions.

1) Bringer of food.
2) Scooper of p**p.
3) Petter of fur.

And, for my mom and dad, as well as all of my faithful followers:

4) Lover of cats.

Wishing all the cats and all the humans a very Happy Tail Tuesday! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!**

My mom is feeling quite "under the weather today." Speaking of which, the weather by our big old house has contributed to be crazy! We have had 6 tornado warnings so far this spring! Another line of thunderstorms are coming in tonight. So we will all hunker down, and hopefully the days to come will bring sunny skies and time for us kitties on the catios! We will be back next week! --TBJC 🐅🧡

22/05/2024

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

So far it has been a bad year for storms by our big old house. Tonight, for the second out of the three Happy Tail Tuesdays so far this May, there have been bad thunderstorms and tornado warnings. Lightning struck right across the street, and there was a huge cracking noise! It woke us all up! I don't like big booming thunder. I especially don't like the tornado sirens! The sirens are right across the street at the fire station, and they are very loud! All of us kitties get scared and out of sorts during bad weather. But mom says our big old house is not likely going anywhere, since it has been weathering storms since 1898! So we will all snuggle in our safe bubble on the first floor with blankets until the storms pass. I hope all of you are safe too! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

Many of you know that I have a little kitty sister named Isabella. My mom calls her "Muffin" or "Muffy-Muffington." Isabella is a Ragdoll puddy. She was born without eyes. But that doesn't stop her from doing anything. Ever. She gets around our big old house just fine. She never wants to be told that she can't do something. She is sassy as can be! She loves my dad's shower. Here she is playing with a toy mousy in the shower. When you are looking for a cat to join your family, please consider those of us with different abilities. My mom and dad say they are sure happy that they did! - TBJC. 🐅🧡

After a tough couple of weeks, you'll be happy to hear that I am now back to my old self!! I am once again eating like the HUGE House Tiger that I am! I have been enjoying nice days on the catio with my kitty siblings. Mom and dad are no longer worried about me. All is well again in our big old house! Thank you all so much for you healing wishes! I do not recommend having six teeth pulled all at once. It is no fun! - TBJC 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

I have had a rough week. As you may have heard, I ended up having to have six teeth pulled last Wednesday. I haven't really felt like eating much since. So mom took me back to the kitty doctor yesterday. The good news is I did not have a temperature. I got fluids, antibiotics, and anti-nausea medication all in an IV. They also gave mom some liquid to sq**rt in my mouth that helps my gums feel not so sore. Today I am doing quite a bit better. But I still do not have my normal HUGE House Tiger appetite back yet. Thank you for all your 'feel better' wishes. I hope to be back to my happy kitty self next Tuesday. - TBJC. 🐅🧡

**HAPPY TAIL TUESDAY PEOPLE FRIENDS!!**

See these HUGE FANGS! Tomorrow I am going to the kitty doctor (very early in the morning) to get them cleaned and polished. I am not very happy about this. First, mom has to take all my food away at midnight tonight! (I may starve.) Then in the morning (with no breakfast) mom will put me in the puddy carrier thingy. Next we will go in the loud car. Mom will then LEAVE ME at the kitty clinic (with no breakfast.) The feline clinic people will give me something to make me very sleepy. When I'm sleeping, they will clean my massive House Tiger teeth. After I wake up I can FINALLY have my breakfast! Then I will meow at the top of my lungs until the poor cat doctor people call my mom to come get me. I've been through this once before. I am not a fan. Please think of me tomorrow. Maybe while you're eating your breakfast. - TBJC. 🐅🧡
