Cat
Holidays

Those who say “a dog is a man’s best friend” have clearly never owned a cat. These sly, intelligent creatures get a rap for being cold and aloof, but those in the cat community know that their animals are just as loving and special as any. There are over 25 holidays throughout the calendar year that celebrate our feline friends, giving you a chance to celebrate their health, their personalities, and the communities they come from that unfortunately include a wealth of homeless kitties. Let’s raise awareness about the cats that don’t have homes while also showering those within our homes with a lot of love.
