March 1st 2008 Passiflora

Vera Lang presents Let Your Cat Destroy Her Own Furniture | Fine Pet Care .com posted at Fine Pet Care .com, saying,

Water Is A Cat’s Best Friend. Or Is It?

Saturday, February 16th, 2008 |

cat in bath

We are happy to present you a new edition of 1001 Cats Blog Carnival. Pisoo and I have learnt a lot of useful things since we have the pleasure of hosting this feline carnival on our blogs. This edition brings us more useful tips to keep us informed and our dear kitties happy and shining.Let’s see:

Vera Lang presents How To Give A Cat A Bath posted at Fine Pet Care .com, saying,

“Yes, cats are clean animals, but there are occasions that bathing them is needed. Giving your cat a bath, well, it’s not easy. I was clueless when I did it for the first time. I hope that this article will be of help when you need to wash your cat.”

Ha, ha! I’ve tried to wash Pisoo only once and I bet my neighbors still remember that day. And if you look at this photo (sorry for not giving credits, but I got the photo in my email and I wanted to show it to you. If you are the author, drop me a message and I’ll credit your work), you’ll see what I mean :D

Raymond presents Buy Pet Food In Bulk Online To Save Money posted at Money Blue Book, saying, “Applicable to cats too :)”

Raymond is right, using his advice you’ll save some money. Provided that you have some available space to store those supplies.

Dan-O presents Adorable Cat Web Tools to Show Off Your Love for Kitty posted at Danogo.com - Discover. Inspiring . Media, saying,

“A round up of some adorable cat Web resources to express your love for cats and get the latest tips and advice online.”

Those cat screen savers surely are cute! And they are free.

Greg Laden presents Greg Laden’s Blog : Friday Peer Reviewed Cat Blogging posted at Greg Laden’s Blog.

This is a very interesting study on cat genetics. I bet you didn’t guess that Russian Blues and Norwegian Forest cats are on the same branch of the evolution tree.

January Cat presents Toby Takes a Dive posted at Karnak Street Kats.

If you’re a cat, then you shouldn’t jump without keeping your eyes wide open.

TherapyDoc presents The Heart Has Its Reasons posted at Everyone Needs Therapy, saying,

“In the end, it’s the pets that lose out.”

This is so true. Besides, there’s no therapy for pets.

Cher presents The Cat Lady Test posted at OnlyintheApple.

Please take the test and see if you qualify for the Cat Lady title.

Anna Farmery presents Pets are a wonderful source of love posted at Widows Quest.

This surely is true. However, when it comes to cats, I cannot help myself noticing that my Pisoo loves the fridge and the cupboard as much as she loves me ;)

Spencer Jones presents Pets and Colloidal Silver posted at Colloidal Silver Secrets, saying,

“Cats love colloidal silver. They seem to have an innate sense that it is good for them. If you cat is sick, and you set a bowl containing colloidal right next to its water bowl, it will choose the colloidal silver every time.”

Strange, I didn’t know that.

Karen Dowell presents The Wiggly Wigglers podcast revisited: Sir Roy Strong posted at Wiggly Wigglers, saying,

“Whilst not strictly about cats, there is a brilliant comment from Sir Roy Strong about cats which I couldn’t resist putting in.”

Yes, and that’s exactly the only reason we decided to include the article in our cats carnival.

Edith presents How Do You Make Them Feel? posted at Edith Yeung.Com: Dream. Think. Act..

This video is really thoughtful. How you make your customers feel can make the difference.

That concludes this edition of 1001 Cats Blog Carnival. Many thanks to all our authors for their contribution.

If you want to see your story featured here too, you are invited to submit your blog article to the next edition of 1001 cats using our carnival submission form.

Funny Cats, Smart Cats And A Bunch Of Tiny Russian Blues

Saturday, February 2nd, 2008 |

It’s carnival time again, so help yourself to the amusing, interesting, purrring stories which make our hearts tick a bit faster.

These are our today’s articles:

Mark presents Weird Cat Behavior Homepage posted at All About Cats Blog, saying, “Comment on posted stories or add your own story and pictures of your cats odd behavior. A simple form below makes it fun and easy to submit your story and pictures. Cats can do some funny things and you may find that some of these funny cat behaviors may become a regular habit. Cats are very routine based. Once they latch onto an activity they enjoy they will practice it often.”

Susan Daffron presents The Offended Sniff posted at Logical Expressions Blog. Next time your cat sniffs, you’ll be one step closer to decipher its meaning.

Joana presents Dinner Time with Isis: A Fairytale posted at Nanashi-Inc.net. It is crazy how these humans take photos of their kitties in the most inappropriate moments, only to make a lot of fun afterwards.

Karen Shanley presents Will You Pulleeease Get Off the Computer posted at Karen Shanley. It looks like Finnegan the Cat knows how to push his master’s buttons in his own advantage.

Last, but not least, my good friend at Cendre De Roses has new kittens. They are adorable!

What A Blow Dryer Can Do To 1001 Cats

Monday, January 7th, 2008 |

tiny kittens in grass

Happy New Year to everybody! Here’s the first 2008 edition of 1001 Cats Blog Carnival. Scheduled for mid-December, delayed by my unexpected and long vacation, but finally published today, together with my thanks to all authors and with my excuses for making them wait so long.

Julie presents My kitteh is skeered of blow dryers, part 2 posted at Velvet-Rose.net. The video is quite funny. It must be genetic: all cats fear blow driers and vacuum cleaners.

Mitch McDonald presents Does My Cat Have Ear Mites? posted at FYI About.com. A simple way to check that out.

Sidhusaaheb presents Southwards bound: The Chosen One posted at I, Me, Myself. If you didn’t know, yes, kitties can smell a friend at once.

GrrlScientist presents MeowMeowMeow: What Are These Two Cats Saying? posted at Living the Scientific Life, saying, “What do cats talk about when humans aren’t around? This amusing streaming video of two chatty cats includes a translation for the cat-imapired.”

Karen Shanley presents There’s a Whole Big World Out There, Kid posted at Karen Shanley. And what do you think Finn does when he gets his moment of freedom? He wonders where to go first, and he ends up inside again! Big world, full of bad guys, I know.

Lucynda Riley presents three articles, all posted at The Crazy Cat Woman: Bengal for Adoption , Interesting cat facts, and Big Black Cat up for Adoption. Did you know that there are more that 300 Bengal cats for adoption right now? If you don’t have $2000 to pay for such a beauty, you could consider adopting one.

200motels presents The Ballad of Frankie Lee posted at 200motels.net, saying, “A Cat and Dog in Hurricane Katrina (Poem)”

Joana presents Isis’ New Sweater posted at Nanashi-Inc.net. I’m sure Isis feels grrreat, you can see that in her eyes. Good job, Joana!

This is all for this edition. The carnival will go on in 2008, after the unexpected break we had in December. We promise to be on time from now on. Please submit your blog article to the next edition of 1001 cats using our carnival submission form.

Good Kitty Night, Don’t Let Bed Mice Bite!

Sunday, December 2nd, 2007 |

cute kitty

Welcome to a new edition of 1001 Cats Blog Carnival. As Christmas is almost here, our mind is full of presents ideas, hose decorations, fireworks or vacations, but in all this rush, we still fond time to play with our littly fury friends, to listen to their stories, and to tell them further for the fun and amusement of other proud cat owners (or slaves?).

These are the stories in our today’s carnival:

Madeleine Begun Kane presents First (And Last) Visit posted at Mad Kane’s Humor Blog. This is an excellent limmerick based on life facts, so take care if you like cats!

GrrlScientist presents Cat Does Dog Tricks posted at Living the Scientific Life, saying, “This is a streaming video showing the amazing Kizzy, an eight-year-old bengal cat that does tricks as well as any dog does.” Good kitty, and even better trainer!

Greg Laden presents Greg Laden’s Blog : Wednesday Cat Blogging: King Cheetah posted at Greg Laden’s Blog. Cool cat! I wouldn’t dare to play the games I play with my kitty.

Joana presents It’s Denali vs Isis - Who Will Win? posted at Nanashi-Inc.net. This is an example of how two otherwise lovely cats can drive their master crazy.

WereBear presents the way of cats: Cat Poker posted at the way of cats, saying, “Thanks for the opportunity.” We thank WereBear for the great article about cats’ love and humans’ behavior. I can confirm that my kitty is testing our love from time to time.

At Home Life Weekly you can learn How To Make Flea Powder, and you’ll realize it is not that hard, and all ingredients are available at herbal shops.

Lucynda Riley presents A guidline for Cats posted at The Crazy Cat Woman. If you still don’t believe in Bed Mice, believe your cat: they exist and they have to be attacked with all strength and dedication. I’m so glad my kitty cannot read!

Many thanks to all authors who dedicated their time to write and submit their stories to the 1001 Cats carnival. Many thanks in advance to our readers for their comments on the articles. If you want to participate with your stories, please submit your blog article to the next edition of 1001 cats using our carnival submission form.
