Ways to celebrate International Cat Day
Adopt a homeless cat
If you have been thinking about bringing a cat into your family, today is the day to do it. With thousands of shelter cats in desperate need of a loving home, what better time to adopt?
Help at a shelter
If now is not the right time to adopt a cat, how about helping at a shelter? That may involve spending time socialising kittens, photographing cats for websites, grooming, cleaning litter trays, fundraising.
If you can’t spare the time, donations of food, cat litter or money are always gratefully received.
Spend time with your cat
Make some time to play with and bond with your cat. Play therapy is one of the best ways to interact with a cat. It provides mental stimulation and physical exercise.
