The Caturday Report: The Celeb and Censorship Edition

November 8, 2014 By: Summer Samba21 Comments

The Caturday Report

There’s really no running thread in this week’s Caturday Report — it runs the gamut from celebrity silliness to political protest to adorableness.

I fall into the adorable category!

As usual, my blogging pals come up with the most worthwhile stories, as you will see.

  • Although my human does not consider Jon Hamm sexy, she almost changed her mind when she saw him in this cat crazy clip from Comedy Central’s @midnight.
  • A lot of you probably know that we cats can hear better than both dogs and humans… but who knew that this ability would be part of a campaign to fight internet censorship in Russia and China!
  • Buzzfeed says these 31 photos will “restore your faith in cats.” Well, if you are here, your faith has probably never been shaken, but check out these images anyway. Each one is awwwww worthy.
  • In case you didn’t know, November is Adopt A Senior Pet Month, and the Sometimes Cats Heard You blog gives you 10 reasons why senior cats make awesome companions.
  • You may have heard about how much something called the Assisi Loop helped Lil BUB cope with her rare disease. The Conscious Cat goes into detail about this fascinating loop!

This was quite an eventful week around here, as you shall see.

  • Since my human had just returned from MeowWorld, I started off the week with some very fun outtakes (and a few tips too).
  • Tuesday was the annual Blog Blast for Peace, and I had a few things to say about creating peace with Binga and Boodie.
  • I finally got to tell you all about MeowWorld — and show off the swag!
  • Our furnace died! So while it was getting replaced, my human and I spent a couple of nights at a friend’s house. Another fun adventure for me!
  • To end the week, I explained why we cats need lots of human companionship, and not to believe the myth that we are low maintenance pets.

If you see a good cat-oriented news item around the internet, send me a link and I may include it next week!

    Wow, Summer, what a plethora of pleasures you’ve shared with us! We shared several, too, because sharing is good. We really liked the article on Lil BUB and her Assisi Loop, and the clip with Jon Hamm — our servant hasn’t watched anything he’s been in, but he’s definitely got “it”, according to her 😉

    Excellent links this week. The Jon Hamm video cracked Mom up. And the 31 photos were priceless. Glad to learn about the Loop for pain relief. Thanks for another excellent Caturday report. Hope you will join us tomorrow for our Sunday Selfies Blog Hop. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

    The Buzzfeed photo of the elderly woman in the hospital bed just broke me down completely. I hope that when I’m in that situation I’ll have a cat in my arms too. Whoever that lady is, whatever happened to her, may she/her soul be blessed.

    Purrs and peace from the boys.
