Some days in the studio are sillier than others…this is one of them! We like to pass on funny stuff we come across about animals, and a friend recently sent us a doozey about cats.

We share our home with an orange tabby cat who unsuccessfully conceals from us that we’re actually his personal staff. So, for those of you who are familiar with the feline point of view…enjoy!  

Haiku Written by Cats – Part 1 
 
   The food in my bowl is old 
                                                And more to the point                                             
   Contains no tuna.

So you want to play. 
Will I claw at dancing string? 
Your ankle is closer. 
 

There’s no dignity
   In being sick - which is why
   I don’t tell you where. 
 
Seeking solitude
   I am locked in the closet.
   For once I need you. 

Tiny can, dumped in
   Plastic bowl. Presentation:
   One star; service: none. 
 
  Am I in your way?
  You seem to have it backwards:
  This pillow is taken.

Happy Labor Day weekend…The JP Crew
ps…Stoo the Wonder Kitty says to tell you guys HI!

So…we always tell folks we’re new to the world of cats although our cat adopted us 8 years ago. He is our first cat and has diligently taught us how to be the best kitty roomies a cat ever had!

We’ve found the number one cat rule is to live in the moment, each and every moment!

If you crave excitement and adventure on a daily basis…adopt a cat!

Fascinating Facts about Cats!

author unknown

 Did you know……

 A cat’s heart beats twice as fast as a human heart, at 100 to 140 beats per minute.

 Calico cats are almost always female.

If your cat is near you, and her tail is quivering, this is the greatest expression of love your cat can give you. If her tail starts thrashing, her mood has changed…Time to distance yourself from her!

Cats knead with their paws when they’re happy.

Cats spend 30% of their waking hours grooming themselves.

A cat will almost never “meow” at another cat. This sound is reserved for humans. The more cats are spoken to, the more they will speak to you.

Cats get their sense of security from your voice. Talk to your cats! Cats know when you’re yelling at them (though they may not care).

Domestic cats are essentially loners. When placed in a group they develop their own hierarchy. As long as there is plenty of food on hand, a cat can learn to share its domain with other cats.

Pet-proof your house by looking for items that may be dangerous to cats. These include cleaners, antifreeze, and rat poison. Also, paints, wall paper pastes, and paint thinners can be toxic. The fumes from moth balls can destroy a cat’s liver cells. Use cedar in your closet instead…play it safe!

During her productive life, one female cat could have more than 100 kittens.

Here’s wishing you a Happy Kitty Day!
