I’ve recently shared the last update on the story of Claudia the Cat.
Now it’s time to make a difference for another little darling. Meet Mini. Please, please SHARE and donate if you can. We already did. Every dollar counts. Even if all you can spare is $1. Imagine if all of us donate $1 today. Can we get a thousand people donating one dollar? I know times are tight for everyone. I understand, even if I am a cat and not a human.
So if you can’t donate, then please share. Let’s help Mini get the life she deserves! Just think, how wonderful it will be when she too finds a forever home!

He'Art of Rescue

She is one of the millions of stray cats roaming free in the streets of İstanbul , her mother , an unknown soul to us, is probably one of the most skilled felines of the city …

She has to be ; surviving in the big metropolitan city with only your bare minimum needs met is not an easy task when you channel most of your energy into protecting your baby.
It is not always possible though.

Often , if it is not a car that takes your most precious away , it is the human cruelty.

Mini’s story started just like many others,the moment she fell apart from her mother , she became a prey to the dangers of the world…
A world mostly dominated by human race,thus a world where the rules are set by them.
The first 4 months of her life was not that bad …

Imagine that. The kid is one year old now!

Satchmo The Cat

I was born!

Or at least around that day, anyway. That’s what the nice lady vet said.

We’ll celebrate my Gotcha Day instead but I figured today was as good a day as any to check in and say hello.

We haven’t forgotten about all of you.

Both Jay and I are doing well.

It will be Jay’s B-day (as calculated by his vet back when he adopted mom) in 4 days. Mom can’t remember his Gotcha Day. Silly mom. She says it was either end of May or beginning of June. Definitely before her birthday. Mom says Jay was very young but not as young as I was when she found me.

Either way, we’ll have a BIG Gotcha Day party next month!

I’m also sending a big happy B-Day headbutt to Milton the Cat, who was born on April 15. Purrs to you from all of us…

Yes! Traveller and her kittens have a forever home!
We are SO happy. This is awesome news!

athingirldotcom

I wanted to let everyone know that Traveller the cat and her 3 kittens have all been lovingly adopted and the best part is, they left in pairs. (See post 7/11/12 Three Little Kittens)

Traveller and Joan of Arc now live with a lovely set of parents in Queens  while Sonny and Cher went to another young couple whose lives revolve around music. I can just see all 4 of them harmonizing their own rendition of ‘I Got You Babe.’                             I’m especially thrilled for Traveller since now she knows her little family are all beneath safe and warm roofs and she even gets to live with the one she was most concerned about.  How great is that and so Italian. If you remember, Joan of Arc was a bit of a rebel causing her mother constant anxiety. I’m glad to report she’s become a little more docile in…

I Think Thomas Was Part Dog!

OH NO!!! Am I infected with dog too?

The Blog of Otis

My Disciples,

I walked into the living room this morning to find Brother Oliver laying on the floor in a semi-catatonic state. I asked him what was wrong and he said, “Leader Otis! I…I can’t believe what I just heard the Guardians say! I think Thomas was infected with dog!”

I was shocked by Brother Oliver’s statement. Why would he think that Thomas had a dog infection? I asked him to tell me everything he had heard. Brother Oliver said, “I walked into the room earlier and the Guardians were saying that it was time for them to go up to Valhalla to check on Thomas. One of them said, ‘Don’t forget his pain meds. His infection is gone, but he’s still pretty sore from having his canine extracted.’ I couldn’t believe it! Thomas had been infected with canine and they had to extract it? No wonder he was at…

Jazz Cat Series: Tom Cat Blues

Rebloggin’ cuz this is a very fine song and I like it a lot

All That JazzCat!

The Tom Cat Blues. This is a song close to my heart. Why, do you ask? well, let me tell you.

The Felis catus (a.k.a Felis silvestris catus or Felis domesticus) often called the housecat, is a small carnivore mammal of the family of felines of which the Jazz Cat Jay is a proud member. Some of our remarkable traits include social nature, obvious body language, love of play and high intelligence. And a great love of music, of course.

A group of cats is referred to as a “clowder”, a female is called a “molly” or “queen” and a male cat is called a “tom”.  Which I am.  A tom cat, that is.  Ergo, this song is about me.

Now, back to the song.  Tom Cat Blues was composed by one hep cat called Joe “King” Oliver.  King Oliver is one of the greatest figures of Early Jazz…

Can I have a hell yeah??!!

Tigger's Teachings

 

Today I would like to clear up an issue that has been on my feline mind, that being the cat logic concerning the food bowl.  For some reason you humans believe that if there is any food in a food bowl the bowl is full.  However, those of us in the “feline know” understand that if you can see any part of the bottom of the food dish the dish needs to be filled.  As we felines depend upon our humans to provide us with sustenance a constantly full bowl is a must!  What would happen if the bowl were almost empty and our human decided to stay out late with friends and we had nothing but crumbs to sustain us for two hours?  Or, what if our human were to stay the night with friends and we ran out of food before our human came home? This is…

I have to say, the kid has a lot of potential. Good kid.

Satchmo The Cat

My big bro Jazz Cat Jay  said something interesting about my name.

Now, for those of you who don’t know, Jay is an authority in Vintage Jazz.  Even my human mommy takes advice from him.  When my human daddy gave me the name, I just thought,  oh that sounds like a good name and thought nothing more of it.   And it allows for a lot of fun variations.  So far I’ve heard my humans calling me Mr. Satchs, Satchie and Satchers.

But my big bro said to me: “Listen kid, Satchmo is not JUST a cool name.  It’s a name to be proud of.   You are now part of a very musical family.  Furthermore, a family with a great  jazz tradition.  The human mom is a DJ that specializes in Vintage Jazz, Blues and Black Gospel.  The human dad -even though a classically trained musician, played with a Jazz…
