In the photo was "Cleopatra Thunder Paws Mapache" one of my favorite cats of all time. I could tell you many stories about her coolness and fun antics. She has moved on to cat heaven now, but she still lives on in many stories.... and she was in our lives for nearly 20 years!

National Hug Your Cat Day is the perfect way for cats to be worshipped once again. Put your feline on a pedestal as a reward for every time they’ve cuddled up to you after a long day. Petting your cat can be fun, but did you know that there are also health benefits from showing affection to pets? Studies show that hugs from animals have to potential to lower blood pressure and stress levels.
