International Cat Day Celebrations

Did you know that August 8th is International Cat Day? It’s estimated that there are approximately 110 million cats in the world, making this day one to celebrate near and far.

Today, some cats are viewed as celebrities, but in Ancient Egypt, they were considered divine. In Canada 37% own one or more cats {with 32% owning a dog}. Despite which furry friend you own at home, both cats and dogs are considered part of the family. Dog owners believe their pets offer them improved physical health while cat owners believe their pets offer them improved mental health.

Here are some Feline Celebrations:

A-Latte Love for Whiskers

Cat cafés have become an international phenomenon – with cities like Paris, Berlin and Montreal pouncing on the bandwagon. Stop by for coffee and enjoy the company of new furry friends!

Cat Crazed

Speaking of showcased cats, Grumpy Cat is the internet sensation whom has published books, won awards and posed for the cover of New York Magazine. She even has over 7 million likes on her Facebook page – talk about a cat leading the pack!

With cats, a clean environment is key – so it’s crucial to maintain a tidy and comfortable space in their home. Arm & Hammer™ Clump & Seal™ Complete Odour Sealing Cat Litter provides a 7-day odour-free home, guaranteed – great for you and your cat!

This revolutionary formula seals and destroys odours before they can leave the litter box. Its plant-derived particles help create rock hard clumps for easy scooping, and its fine micro-particles ensure ultra-low dust when pouring or scooping – this helps keep litter in the box instead of on your kitty’s feet. Plus your cat will love the new softer feel!
