National Cat Day was founded by Jason Merrill. It is a celebration that takes place on October 29th, every year in the United States.
The National Cat Day website states that the holiday was first
celebrated in 2005 "to help galvanize the public to recognize the number
of cats
that need to be rescued each year and also to encourage cat lovers to
celebrate the cat(s) in their life for the unconditional love and
companionship they bestow upon us." The day is supported by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, a nonprofit organization which also works to encourage pet adoption.
Super fun! It's been over a quarter of a century since I saw Cats on stage... it was wonderful to see them all again! Now I want to go see the show again! Guess I'll just have to put on the album instead. : ) I've enjoyed all your fabulous projects this week! Thank for all the love you left on my blog, too! (USA - dcomer1 gmail)
