🐱💙 Happy Hug Your Cat Day! 💙🐱

There's nothing quite like the purr-fect comfort of snuggling with your feline friend. Cats have an amazing ability to sense when we need extra love and support – and today is the perfect excuse to return all that affection!

A few gentle reminders for safe cat hugging:
• Let your cat come to you first
• Support their body properly when lifting
• Keep hugs brief if your kitty seems restless
• Respect cats who prefer head scratches over full hugs

Every cat shows love differently – whether through purrs, head bumps, or simply choosing to nap nearby. However, your cat prefers to bond; take a moment today to appreciate the special connection you share.

Share a photo of you and your furry family member in the comments below! We love seeing the bond between pets and their families. 📸
