He does well around other cats and well-tempered dogs.

The Cat Connection Cats of the Month

March 2006 Cat Connection Winner
Voted "Cat of the Month" by The Cat Connection Shop Cats



Owner: Amanda Elliott
Cat's Name: Sasha
Breed: Domestic Short Hair
Age: 2 years old

About the Winner:
Here is what Amanda has to say about her gorgeous girl, Sasha.

"I love my Sasha! She is the absolute joy in my life. Every day when I come home, she' waiting at the door meowing, and I'm guessing because she hears my keys when I walk up the stairs. She is a very good cat. I got her at the Royal Oak Animal Shelter last February. She was very sick and had about 2 full pages of notes about her sickness and had gone to the vet very many times because she was very skinny. I took her to my vet and she is now at a healthy weight and plays all day. Every time I pick her up she rubs her face against my face and purrs. She likes to stretch out like a boomerang all the time and fan out her paws. She's very vocal and outgoing with other people and loves to run around with my friend's dog.

Cats Just Want To Have Fun
Keeping your kitty active
Smart Cat Peek-a-Prize Box
Is your cat bored? Feline boredom is often at the root of a variety of behavior problems including aggression with pets as well as people, compulsive grooming, and depression. We all know feline couch potatoes--sedentary cats who tend to be a bit chubby. A daily dose of aerobic exercise is as important for cats as it is for their owners. A couple 10-15-minute play sessions in a day will improve your cat's attitude toward life and will bring him into the land of the fit and trim.
Interacting with your cat in a positive way is healthy and relaxing for you as well. Invest in a couple of well-made fishing pole-type toys and take them out during the scheduled playtimes. (Cats love routine, so try to plan play sessions for the same time every day.) You can sit on the couch while kitty is getting a workout. When kitty is lying on his side and batting at the toy, it's to end the play session and put the toys away. (If these toys are not put behind closed doors, the cat will continue to hunt for them and could get into trouble by chewing the parts, like string or feathers.) Have fun. These play sessions are great times for bonding with your pet.

Fun and Games:
For Cat Lovers with a sense of humor

Cat Butts have taken over!

There's probably one living in your house or at least one or more in your neighborhood that come around. These cats are nothing to be afraid of. In fact, they are wonderful creatures that happily share the world with us. There are many types of breeds of cats out there and sometimes it can be difficult to distinguish one from another. One of the surest ways to identify a cat is through examination of its hind-quarter region otherwise known as its “butt”.

This new line provides a sampling of cat butt images and insightful hunting hints to help you get started with the wonderful hobby of “cat watching and breed identification through the “butt”.

Play Therapy:
The Cure For Playful Aggression Da Bird Cat Teaser

We can take the cat out of the jungle, but we can't take the jungle out of the cat. There is a little tiger in every house cat, a solitary predator that needs to exercise its hunting skills on a regular basis. We may have confined this little tiger within four walls, provided it with the finest of feline foods, but we can't ignore its basic need to do that for which it was so perfectly designed--to hunt. Fortunately, it is not always necessary for the prey to be alive, but it must move. Check out our other article in this newsletter - Cats Just Want to Have Fun.

Owners are often frightened by playfully aggressive cats and kittens because they can look quite dangerous. They silently ambush feet and ankles as they pass by, surprising, upsetting, and sometimes, even hurting, the victim. In some cases the cat owners have inadvertently trained their cat to be a feline terrorist by playing with it as a kitten with their hands or feet.
