"International Cat Day started in the year 2002. It was created to shed light on the various forms of cat abuse and raise awareness on ways to help and protect them. This year's theme is "Cat-friendly resources." Take the chance to donate to your local animal shelter or adopt a stray cat to commemorate this August 8."

I`m sorry, I know the poor cat can`t help it, but that Oriental shorthair looks so ugly!

Wow! It’s a long-legged bat!

On Twitter there's a cat reviewer site where people put up photos of random cats they meet on the street and award them marks out of ten for various daft things. It's very entertaining.

I love looking at all these pussy cats. I’m on a Facebook cat lovers site and just like scrolling through looking at all the beauties on there!

I don’t have a cat of my own, but think this is a beautiful animal. It’s an Oriental Shorthair.

I would never forget to feed my cat! Perish the thought. One of the other two must have gobbled it up first. Honest grin.

Cat lovers, are you aware that on Amazon you can buy a spray for around £6 when applied to carpets and mattresses which can get rid of odour and stains? Occasionally it has to be applied twice but it is a case of wet, leave and let it dry.

Buy one which specifically mentions faeces and urine and that covers vomit also. For a carpet, I would think you may have to try a corner first.

1.30am? Yowling? Piddling?
I'd give her a severe talking to, not food. (Unless I'd actually forgotten to feed her.)

Unfortunately I don't have an International Cat sad even a bog standard national cat would do, I curse my family they're all allergic to the felines, apparently hmm

Love the cat pictures posted all beauties, The ancient Egyptians were right, they are Gods and should still be worshiped as such.

Happy International Cats Day to moggies far and wide.
