1. Happy Valentine's Day from the cats!
Sure, they don't know what that means, but they do know what love feels like.
Every cat deserves a loving home, and not just on Feb. 14. Let us know how you celebrate your cat(s) and send a photo if you'd like to see your little sweetie featured here. We like to see happy cats no matter what day it is!
I'll start.
My boys, Bo and Tux, best friends
2. Hugging and Loving Your Cats
Do cats enjoy being hugged? Some do, some don't. Read this for guidelilnes to help you stay on your kitties' good side. If you love them, be nice to them, according to their preferences, not yours.
Do daddy cats love their kittens?
That depends, apparently. This tiger dad took over raising the youngsters when his mate died.
If anyone in the family needs to learn how to gently love a cat and hear her purr, here's a great idea:
https://purrli.com/play.php
The sound of a purring cat is one of the most comforting sounds available and can help soothe and calm you when you're feeling stressed. Naturally, it's not just the sound that is important, but it's also the presence of the warm, cuddly cat. Purrli tries to recreate both the sound and the presence of your very own virtual cat through a custom sound engine modeled after real purrs.
With a purr that delicately changes over time, Purrli aims at making the experience as real and lively as possible. Just like a real cat, Purrli will call for your attention. Just be careful when adjusting the last slider, if you don't want to be nagged in the middle of your work.

3. Interesting Links
Catnip, renowned for bringing an adrenaline-like rush to even the most docile cats, has actually been discovered to have other, distinct benefits.
Researchers in Japan have found that when cats dig into catnip, high amounts of strong insect repellents are released, indicating that the addictive behavior of our furry friends is protecting them from pests.
Catnip grows pretty easily and can be bought online or at many garden stores.
