August 8th International Cat Day

Okay, so for all you cat lovers today is the day you can put them up on a pedestal for a reason, it’s International Cat Day. There are over 500 million domesticated cats in the world (most of which I think are in our home) with 71 breeds known to man, a probably a few that aren’t. The domesticated cat is still 96% tiger, which explains why they can turn on you in an instant and most are near sighted, which explains why they don’t know who you are from a distance. Today was created by the International Fund for Animal Welfare in 2002. Cats can be cool, so long as humans are willing to give up their pride.

How to celebrate – Get a cat (if you don’t already have one). Learn about the 71 breeds. See is a tiger in the wild will play with your ball of yarn.
