Caturday Art & Ginger Cat Appreciation Day

Some of you may remember Butters from 6 years ago. The man and his wife renamed him Hunter. We don't know if he is still alive or not.  He never did find a home. He showed up not long after Arty disappeared, it's hard to believe she has been gone 6 years. After we found a safe place for him Annie Tuiren showed up, we all got along with HER a lot better, but then she was spayed. Besides reducing the pet over population spaying and neutering makes it easier for your cat or dog to get along with other cats and dogs, it reduces unwanted behaviors like spraying (which is probably why Butters got dumped at our house) and it makes it easier for them to find homes. The hormones (that caused us not to like Butters) can take 6 months to clear after spaying or neutering. That means 6 months before you can hope to see a change in the unwanted behavior (spraying) or acceptance by other pets. We had nowhere to keep Butters separated from the rest of us where he could spray for 6 months, so he had to go... We hope he was/is happy with the Cat Man and his wife.

Mommy hosted another challenge in her Flickr group to celebrate Ginger Cat Appreciation Day and the pages were outstanding.

 The Mom colored some pages she agreed to let us share with you. We love the bear, he looks like he is wearing armor.

And this cat looks as if he knows a few secrets. ~ATCAD
