Cat Seye: HEY EVERYONE..remember this week I posted about an older cat
who was dumped by her former humans who were hateful and told the
shelter to euthanize her because she was not friendly and didnt like
anything...and she was giving up on life in the shelter? WELL lucky she
had photos taken and posted and guess what? ...SHE HAS A NEW LOVING HOME
WITH A FANTASTIC LADY IN TX AND A NEW BROTHER! HER NEW NAME IS
JAYDA..and she is HOME!!!..here are a few of her old pics and then her
NEW ones in her first days of being home she was adopted on the 2nd, so
hurray for JAYDA in her new home with her new furbrother and new furever
mommy Nichole.....

Working together we make Happy Tails !!!! So glad Jayda has a hero !!!


Cat Cafe http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_cafe
A cat cafe is a theme cafe whose attraction is cats that can be watched
and played with. Patrons pay a cover fee, generally hourly, and hence
cat cafes can be seen as a form of supervised indoor pet rental.

Cat cafes are quite popular in Japan, with Tokyo being home to at least
39 cat cafes. A pioneer is Cat's Store, which opened in 2005. The
popularity of cat cafes in Japan is attributed to many apartments
forbidding pets, and to cats providing relaxing companionship in what
may otherwise be a stressful and lonesome urban life; other forms of pet
rental are also common in Japan.

-----we at Rikki's can verify that it's very relaxing to eat lunch with
35 felines dancing on your table!!!!

There are various cat cafes. Some cat cafes feature specific categories
of cat such as black cats, fat cats (---Purrrfect for a cafe!), rare
breed cats or ex-stray cats.

Japanese cat cafes feature strict rules to ensure cleanliness and animal
welfare, in particular seeking to ensure that the cats are not disturbed
by excessive and unwanted attention, such as by young children or when
sleeping. Many cat cafes also seek to raise awareness of cat welfare
issues, such as abandoned and stray cats.


Be safe and have fun today. Who's hero will YOU be today?


Love, Vincent
