A Cat's Blog

I came home from work today to find the latest issue of Cat Fancy in my mailbox, and I was absolutely DELIGHTED to see Joe Mantega, who plays FBI agent David Rossi on CBS’s “Criminal Minds” on the cover! I love Criminal Minds, and IMHO, Joe Mantega gives Criminal Minds quite an unique presence, much more than Mandy Patkin did.

You can see part of the exclusive interview at Cat Channel.com by clicking the link here. Be sure to pick up the October 2009 issue of Cat Fancy to read the complete interview!

My cats all give PAWS UP!!! to Cat Fancy for featuring Joe Mantega!

Today I am posting links on this blog to two very good websites that address the issues brought up by the recent publicity surrounding the Vermillion Parish Rabies Control Center in Lafayette, Louisiana and the reinstatement of Michael Vick by the NFL. I strongly urge you to visit these websites and become better enlightened.

Since I’m deaf, I can’t hear my cats purr, but I definitely can feel these purrs when I snuggle with them! I saw this great article over at The Daily Cat, and wanted to share this with my blog visitors – Enjoy!

How and why cats purr
From The Daily Cat
By Susan McCullough, Studio One Networks

Did you know that, like vibrating piano strings, the sounds and vibrations your purring cat emits are in perfect musical harmony with each other? Those positive vibrations form the basis of one of the most soothing and pleasurable means of communication in the entire animal kingdom. Usually, your cat is telling you, “I’m feeling good.”

In addition to the messages purring can send to you and others, it offers physical benefits to both felines and the lucky people petting them.
