Happy !
Here's how to celebrate...
Volunteer/Advocate for a group.
One of the most important features of International Cat Day is not just the fun that can be had, but it’s about the need for raising awareness about the plight of many cats who don’t have homes to live in. Please share social media posts for looking for or homes (you'll find some in our feed).
Make a Donation to a charity or rescue group.
No time to volunteer? That’s okay! International Cat Day is also a great time to make a monetary donation to help out a local cat shelter for the care and keeping of the cats in need.
for International Cat Day.
Bring some love right into the living room and help out a little life by adopting a cat. Cats are fairly easy to take care of, they are rather independent, they make great roommates, they are often good with children and they are low-maintenance. We have a large variety of cats just waiting for a loving individual or family to take them home and care for them!
Visit a Local Cat Cafe.
Those who don’t have a cat of their own don’t have to miss out on the fun of International Cat Day! This is the perfect time to pop by a cat cafe for a little beverage or snack and, of course, some interaction with cats.
You possibly know Jiji Rescue Cat Cafe, but we hope you'll also visit two of our at Yumiao Cat Cafe in Waterloo (see link in our comments).
Make a Veterinary Appointment.
International Cat Day is the ideal day to remember to take care of the cat’s health. Use it as an opportunity to call the vet and schedule a checkup or preventative appointment to make sure all is going well with your cat. Since cats are very good at covering up signs of illness or pain, it’s a great idea to make sure they are seen by a doctor regularly to make sure they’re healthy and happy.
Spoil a Cat for International Cat Day.
This is the perfect day to buy a cat a new toy, bed, or perhaps that extra fancy, gourmet food! Treat that little four-legged feline friend right and throw him or her a little International Cat Day party to celebrate the VIP of the day. If you don't have a cat you might want to buy some supplies and donate them to the 20+ cats we have in care at the moment.
Dress with a Nod to International Cat Day.
Cat eye sunglasses match any part of a wardrobe on this important day of celebration. Choose that headband with the little cat ears, try on a striped hat (along the lines of Dr. Seuss’s The Cat in the Hat), wear those slippers with cats on them or go all out by donning a full Catwoman suit.
Dress Your Cat in a Cute Costume.
Take International Cat Day one step further by dressing up that adorable, furry cat in a costume that would make any cat lover proud - if they'll allow it!
