The Cat Blog on TheCatSite.com

CarolPetunia is the forum member in the spotlight this week, so I thought it would be apt to feature one of her beautiful felines as our cat in the spotlight! Carol has six cats, and you can see their pages here.

Picking up just the one was not easy! They’re all absolutely gorgeous and Carol had made them wonderful detailed cat pages. They all have such unique names too, so at the very least, let’s mention them all - Pearl Noelle, Sassy Lane, Abby Helen, Dylan Ishmael, St. John Dundee and our cat in the spotlight today: Clyde Lee. Kudos Carol, on coming up with such wonderful unique names for your furbabies!

Clyde Lee is one lucky kitten out of five born to a semi-feral cat brought into the shelter where Carol volunteers. Both mother cat, Abby Helen, and sweet little Clyde Lee found a forever home with Carol herself! He’s had a rough start with a major case of pneumonia, but Carol’s tender loving care saved this lucky cat’s life! There’s a lot more you can learn about Clyde Lee by visiting his cat page right here.

Wonderful piece of advice there - and its meaning is clear to any cat lover out there! It’s by author Allia Zobel Nolan and it’s actually the title of her latest book.

Our forum moderator jcat, aka Tricia Brandt, has reviewed the book for you right here -

Purr More, Hiss Less

Our editor of the Meowhoo.com Focus on Felines contest is pretty discriminating. I think perhaps one in ten submissions makes it past his criteria - and the quality certainly is high in this month’s contest:

You can cast your vote right here on this page. Don’t ask ME who to vote for - way too many amazing photos that truly let that purrsonality shine through! Here’s the thing though, don’t tell anyone, but due to a glitch in our voting system, you can actually vote more than once… Are we working on fixing that? even better - we’re working on a total revamp of photo contests on both Meowhoo and TheCatSite.com!

Sounds complicated? It really isn’t! See, on our cat forums, we have a nice feature that members have come up with called “Spotlight Member of the Week”. One member is singled out and questioned, everything and anything that comes to the minds of the other members. Once the week is over, the poor, umm, I mean lucky, member gets to pick next week’s member in the spotlight.

For example, during the past seven days, our member in the spotlight was Bonnie1965 -

And for this blog post, I thought it would be nice to put one of Bonnie’s cats in the spotlight, so we bring you young Ms Daphne -

Now, I am not sure if Daphne enjoys the publicity, considering the way she’s posing for the camera, but all the same, she is our cat in the spotlight today so you can read more about this beautiful calico here.
