Celebrating International Cat Day 2021 With A Purrific Feline Mash Up

Hello to all of our cat lovers out there near and far! In case you didn't get the memo, we are celebrating our favorite holiday of the year! We might be a couple days late, but we're going to party so hard that you won't be able to tell! Meow. That's cat for let's get this party started. It's International Cat Day, can we get a heck to the yeah? A cause for celebration like this comes once a year, so stock up on tuna cans and cat nip, because this could get wild. Let's learn a bit more about how this pawsome day came to be and why.

"International Cat Day is celebrated every year on August 8. It was celebrated for the first time in 2002 by the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), an animal welfare organization, one of the largest in the world, based out of Canada. International Cat Day is celebrated to help raise public awareness about cats, to learn about ways to keep and protect them." Story Via hindustantimes.com

"International Cat Care has decided on the campaign 'Be cat curious' to celebrate this year's International Cat Day. The campaign encourages cat owners to spend quality time with their pets and learn more about them. The organization says 95% of cat owners want more advice on training their cats, with at least half saying they struggled to get their cat into the cat carrier. Hence, this year's International Cat Day will be celebrated to encourage training for cats and their owners. Cat owners have also been invited to share their experiences of training their pets."
