Scaredy Cat - Simon's Cat

(A Halloween Special)

Dear Kitten: Regarding The Dog

Great advert.

Cat Coughing Coincidentally

Ever heard of contagious yawns?  Well, that's in humans, but how about cross-species sympathetic coughing?

Boo!

Washed Up - Simon's Cat

Mice Are Junk Food For Cats

A cat would have to eat 5 mice to gain the same nutritional value as a can of cat food.

Awww!

Gizmo Flushes

This is more impressive, though:

Cat Walk

This reminds me of horses in Dressage competitions.

grimalkin

grimalkin gri·mal·kin [gri-mal-kin, -mawl-] noun

1. a cat.
2. an old female cat.
3. an ill-tempered old woman.

I wasn't familiar with this word which surprised me because I love cats.  I'm not familiar with old female cats, either, because while I've had female cats hang around - and have a litter or two - they disappear after a while.  I always hope they found good homes. 

I AM familiar with ill-tempered old women, although I'd have to say ill-tempered old men are worse.

I should know.

Cat Cafe Cam

From the site:

Purina ONE is launching the first ever North American Cat Café in New York City, creating an environment of wellness where visitors learn about the 28 Day Challenge, share their experiences, interact with experts and connect with adoptable cats and other cat lovers. Learn more at www.PurinaONE.com/CatCafe and join the conversation with #CatCafe.

Just discovered this and am not sure if it's going to be a permanent thing because the cam isn't fixed and was going from cat-to-cat and often getting blocked by people in the way. (not sure about you, but I don't care a thing about a "back of people's head webcam")   From the looks of some folks on the street looking through the window, you'd think they never saw a cat before.

Let Sleeping Cats Lie

A "bump" from July 3, 2007 - not because I don't have anything else to post, but because the photo is better than any clipart I could get to illustrate this bit of trivia.

Cats sleep for 70% of their lives.

Crazy Time - Simon's Cat

Videos For Your Cat

From the YouTube channel Videosforyourcat.

There are several other videos, but most involve either birds or fish; there IS one with crickets, but those scare my cat.

Even though they're "videos for your cat", I liked them too.

ailurophilia

ailurophilia ai·lu·ro·phil·i·a [ahy-loor-uh-fil-ee-uh, ey-loor-] noun

a liking for cats, as by cat fanciers.

---

Not sure if this word describes me, because I don't just have a liking for cats, I love 'em. (Well, most of 'em, anyway; as many hang around my house, they sure love ME.)

I wonder if there's a word for a phobia about hating litter boxes?

Old Friends

These people had a pet baby squirrel who ran away once he was full grown. He still comes back to visit every once in a while

Love Hurts!

Christmas Presence (Part 2) - Simon's Cat

Yawn

I feel like that today; think I'll curl up w/ my miniature black panther (aka "The Beej") and take a nap.

I'd rather lie down with a cougar and take a nap, but... Not a "real" cougar, but the human female type.  Considering my age, though, and the definition of a cougar, that'd be a younger woman.

Cat Loves Baby

Well, not really...the cat is probably trying to get the baby to pet it or more likely, is marking the child with its scent, "claiming" it. Whatever, it's still an "Aww" video, huh?
