If you have never been to a cat show, you may not know what to expect as you may have heard some rumors that cat shows are only for stressed out, pedigreed cats. However, that notion is far from the truth!
There are many things to do at a cat show, let’s take a look at what kinds of things go on:
Cats can compete in a timed, enclosed feline agility course. It is fun to watch them as they compete against the clock. If you are at a show which has feline agility, you will spend several minutes at a time just mesmerized watching the cats jump through hoops and climb stairs.
There is a myth that cats are stressed out at shows and it is an unnatural place for them to be. While there are cats who do not like to show and they are “retired” quickly from showing if they act up and are cranky, many cats love the attention from their owners and like to be admired by strangers.

Before you get kitten home, there are a few things you will want to do to make sure your home is safe and secure for your new addition.
Have fun as you introduce your kitten to his new surroundings and he will soon realize that this is his forever home where he can grow and have comfort and support for a lifetime
http://blog.cfa.org/training-your-kitten-to-enjoy-her-carrier/
Most cats learn to hate carriers because they associate the carrier with a bad experience – it comes out once a year or so, and means a trip to the vet’s office!
But a carrier is an important part of life for our feline friends, so here are some tips for helping your cat learn to like the carrier:
Make the carrier attractive to your cat – add some comfy bedding, and then a favorite toy or some catnip.

During our last fundraiser, Mary, a longtime friend of the IBKC, offered up a challenge. For every $25 we gave, she promised to stitch a super-soft fleece kitty bed to donate to our shelter. Well, when the challenge was over, Mary got busy and started making seventy, yes, SEVENTY fleece cat beds.
Last week we met up at the shelter so she could deliver her beds to the kitties.
We stopped in the foster room first to drop off a stack of beds. Remember that cutie pie Jackson, who came to the Internet Cat Video Fest? Well, lucky for us, he was there to greet us! Here is having a “Prince and the Pea” moment.
He’s such a sweet little fellow, and loved all the attention he got from Mary.
Ruth, who’s the foster care coordinator, was very happy to receive the kitty bed donation. The kittens and mama cats love the beds, and because they’re getting geared up for kitten season, they certainly do need them!
Next, we met up with Sarah, who works in the cattery. She was so thrilled to receive a big stack of beds for the big cats. They’ve been running low on them, so the timing was perfect!
Thank you, Mary, for being generous with your time and creating so many of these wonderful beds for the shelter cats and kittens! I know a lot of heart, effort, and hours went into the creation of these — we appreciate this huge gift you gave!! Thank you to all you donated during Mary’s challenge, too!
And thank you to Sophie, Mary’s lovely Calico, for posing so beautifully for these photographs. I’m sure your kitty heart was broken when your mama packed up all your beds and took them away! I understand she still has a little fleece left over. Maybe she can make you one to call your own!

This post has been written by our Newbury & District Adoption Centre
Beautiful Fusa arrived at the Newbury & District Adoption Centre as a stray with cat flu symptoms and a very obvious head tilt. She had a serious ear infection which was affecting her balance, causing nausea. Antibiotics and ear treatments didn’t helped to alleviate the symptoms.
Xrays revealed the problem was a polyp causing all the symptoms. Specialist scans and treatment were needed, which are costly so we set up a JustGiving page to appeal to cat lovers to help Fusa to receive the treatment she deserved.
Unbelievably, we smashed our target of £3,800 within 24 hours! We were so overwhelmed and grateful for everyone’s generosity.
Our little lady had her operation in December but it didn’t go exactly to plan and she gave us quite a scare. It was a very worrying time for all the staff here at the centre. Poor Fusa had post-surgery complications and it was very touch and go for a few days.
Fusa had to have a tracheostomy during her operation and was in intensive care for several days. She spent many weeks in a foster home with our Cat Care Assistant Adele and gave Adele a fright when her tracheostomy wound opened. So back to the vets Fusa went!
The above photo shows Fusa settling down in Adele’s home. The picture quality isn’t great simply because she needed to be kept calm and quiet with low lighting. She had a long recovery ahead, longer than originally thought, but we are so happy that Fusa received the treatment she deserved and got all the love and care she needed.
We’re so pleased to be able to tell you that she found a happy home in February with a lovely couple.
Here she is going home with her new owner and settling in their home.

Russia’s president Vladimir Putin and North Korea’s supreme leader Kim Jong-Un come to life in these neat miniature hand-crafted figurines that — thanks to their hessian rope torsos — double as cat toys.
If they’re not popular with people, at least you know cats will be quite happy to sink their claws into them.
It took the brilliant masterminds at pro-Internet anonymity VPN service provider HideMyAss.com 200 hours to create this ‘one-of-a-kind protest product and the ultimate feline satirical statement.’ Each scratching post stands at a cat-accessible height of 1.5ft and will set you back by “just” US$7245 (£4,500).
Proceeds go to the Index on Censorship in its efforts to promote and defend the right to freedom of expression.
