It's been said that people that hate cats will come back as mice in their next life.

My Cat is Crazy
Cats are arguably the most common and loved pet in the whole world. They are soft, cuddly, and totally think they are superior to us. I mean, in a way, they kind of are. We humans take them in, we feed them, we clean their litter boxes, and we live for their affection. Cats literally have the BEST setup. We cater to their every whim, and we don't expect them to do anything to earn it that they wouldn't do naturally.

'Crazy Cat Lady'
Most people are familiar with the term "crazy cat lady," but what is it, exactly, that makes a person one? Usually this term is associated with someone who owns many cats, but I believe that it can hold multiple definitions.

Outdoor Cats
You watch your outdoor cat as he romps in the grass, feeling the breeze, smelling for all the bugs. You watch, as he has this child-like fun with joyous abandon. You tried to make him an indoor only cat, so he can stay safe, but he just wasn’t happy enough. So you let him out, and this is the result.

Omar's Diary for Saturday 20th Jan 2018
My own Servants were finally able to spend more time around home this Saturday than they have been able to do so since May 2017. Up until last weekend they were fully committed for every weekend and bank holiday to looking after their equines. Equines must be so inferior to felines as they have been so demanding of my Servant's time. Alas now, they are being looked after full-time by other members of the Servant's species.

I Hated Cats
I have always told people, “ I hate cats,” and would list reasons why. They seemed needy—they stared into your soul, they would bite or claw randomly, they would come to you only if they wanted love and attention (which always seem to be when you’re busy), and they always put their butts right up in your face.

Gaining the Trust of an Orphaned Kitten
Adopting an animal has always been something I wanted to do, but there were so many "what if's" that I always backed out of actually doing it. So when my beloved cat passed away after being hit by a car, I can honestly tell you that adopting another kitten was the last thing on my to-do list.

Living with an Asshole
Taz was abandoned when he was six weeks old outside a work source office. My former roommate saw him and asked me if I knew anyone who wanted a cat. I said I did, little did I know he was a demon in disguise. I found out that his former owners were not so kind to him. In just the first six weeks of his life he was abused and nearly eaten by dogs. It was a blessing that we came into each other's lives. I was single, and had a few friends but needed some companionship at home. I grew up with dogs and cats most of my life and knew what I was getting into, or so I thought. I left him alone to explore his new home and get comfortable. Once he felt safe, he crawled up on my chest and curled into a ball right under my chin and slept there for three hours. His inner "Calvin" started showing when he was about three months old by attacking any bare ankle(s) that passed by.

Mischievous
Mischievous is her name, AKA Chevious. We love her dearly but it has not been an easy ride. Mischievous initially lived with a friend who also had Chevious's Son. Chevious was such a scared kitty, she would run away from everyone and everything except me and my partner when we visited. She would actually sit with my partner, which was pretty much unheard of then! She would go out to hide from humans and end up getting hurt by big Tom cats as she was so diddy and didn't eat a lot; she would return with scratches and big lumps out of her fur.

How Your Cat Says 'I Love You'. Top Story - December 2017.
One of the main arguments that dog owners often have for disliking cats is that they are not affectionate. This misconception comes from the more subtle ways that cats express their love for their humans. While not jumpy and loud with their preferred methods of endearment, cats certainly show their owners plenty of love and trust. Cats may seem distant and cold to outsiders, but all cat owners know the small tokens of appreciation and signs of trust that their cat shows on a daily basis. If you know how to read the signs, you will soon learn to pick up on even the smallest signs that your cat loves you.

Why Are Calico Cats Usually Female?
What is a calico cat? The majority of calico cats are female. In fact, over 99 percent of them are. It is estimated that only 0.3 percent of calico cats are male, so why is this?

Pumpkin
My grandma has a cat that is roughly 15-years-old. We adopted the cat from the shelter a couple years ago as a companion for her other cat. Both cats are about the same age but they have completely different personalities. The one we adopted is a tortoise-colored cat that looks like a skeleton with fur but she is the sweetest thing and loves on everybody who will give her the time of day; her name is Pumpkin. Minnie, on the other hand, is a demon spawned from hell and will viciously attack anybody who walks by her if she’s in the slightest irritated of moods. Ironically, it was Pumpkin who completely surprised everybody when it came to meeting my dogs.
