i'm sitting here on the couch, with Hamish next to me, looking right up at me with his big, blue eyes, purring every time i look down and give him a scratch on his little, pointy head. or Gus, on the back of the couch. purring his big ol' melon head off, drooling onto my shoulder as he's known to do when he's relaxed, and i have to wonder. Is there a day set aside during the year when we can pay tribute to the total and unconditional love that our pets give us. whether it be cats (the best lol) or dogs or horses or whatever pet we have. when you think about how much they give us without asking much more than some good, fresh food, nice fresh water and a kind word now and then, Shouldnt they have a special day? like we honor past presidents, leaders of great causes, and things like that?
Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.

As far as I'm concerned, it is any day you want! Even if it is more than 1 day a year.

Everyday... my cat is so spoiled rotten... He is more my kid then my pet though.  He earns his keep not only does he give love and attention but the house has been mouse free for 3 years  ;)

       My thoughts exactly. I think everyday that you do for them AND they have a way of making uS feel special. My Large  Black cat Joy has favored ME over anyone else in our home and ALWAYS has! Anyone else can call her or even try to pet her and she will leave tem to come to ME at the drop of a hat. ;D Nlow, ever since  Brenda passed away, Joy has made it a point that when I'm at the pc, she will come over and lay on the computer desk or want me to hold her. Now she is a PRETTY GOOD SIZE CAT! :o :) And, to hold her, is a pretty good job. So, I guess I make her feel soecial, because she sure makes ME feel that way! ;)  my 2 cents

Hey- thanks for the PM.  I replied but it was returned. ? !
Anyway, everything's Jake.
I vote for everyday, too.  Just like Christmas and Valentine's.  I mush everyone's face and tell them I love 'em everyday.  (I'm not sure Kathleen appreciates the face mush as much as the animals do, though)

Today I would have had the 12 th anual meeting (WER) with Axl Griessman who sadly passed away in a MC accident a few months ago.

I will ride alone today and remember the good times we had. I will for ever owe him two beers.
