Hi everyone! We are very lucky to have a guest post from roommate Cat Scouts Maggie and Felix.
Happy New Year, everyone!
We wanted to take this opportunity to thank Auntie Ellen for inviting us to guest post once in awhile. We love sharing our common concerns about animal welfare, and especially kitty news and trends. We are taking a much-needed break from the holidays, and we’ve made a few New Year’s resolutions.
We know with Winter in full swing in many parts of our country, our compatriots without homes are struggling to stay warm and find food and water. We and many of you donate supplies and money to our local shelters and rescue groups, but we’d like to also encourage you to volunteer to help your community care for our needy relatives. If you are unable to donate time or money, but like to “socialize,” you can always help on-line with petitions, drives and message boards.
You’d be surprised at how effective our combined paw power can be!
We also wanted to let you know about an amazing conference coming up later this Winter, organized by the former founder and President of Best Friends Animal Society, now the founder and CEO of Earth in Transition. http://www.earthintransition.org/2016/10/not-animal-symposium/ 
We wish all of you peace, good health and lots of love in 2017!
Today is also a special day in The Blogosphere to say goodbye to Easy who left for the Bridge 
It is called Lighting the Way for Easy and is hosted by Dory’s Backyard.
Such a great reminder … that while most of us enjoy an abundance during the holiday season, there are lots of kitties that go without. And it has a special place in my heart because my Bear Cat used to be one of them. He saved my life … and each and every homeless and hungry cat has the same potential if just given a chance 🙂
I am glad Bear saved you. And I agree each has the same potential. XO
It’s so important to help less fortunate kitties in any way possible! Thanks for reminding us!
It sure is 🙂
Hi Maggie and Felix…….thanks for telling us about the animal symposium coming this year – a most worthy cause. We are also helping to light the day up with candlepower for dear Easy who is finally HOME.
Love, Angel Sammy
It does sound like a great event. XO and love to you Angel Sammy.
My condolences for all who loved Easy.
This morning, Sweetie and i are heading to the shelter to feed, water, and change the litter boxes for about 150 cats. It’s going to be a great morning!
Thank you. You certainly do your part.
Maggie and Felix, you sure did a fine job with your post. It’s an important reminder for us all that there are lots of ways we can help homeless cats.
Yes, there are lots of ways to help.
What a purrfect post, Maggie and Felix! The homeless furbabies out there need our help, and it is so great of kitties like you to remind us of that fact. Happy Wednesday to all of you!
Maggie and Felix are wise kitties.
Such a timely post. We are the luckiest of kitties, who have homes and noms and people who love and take care of us. You are good scouts to remind us all that others need our help.
We wish all the Kitties and People at 15 & Meowing the Happiest of New Years. You are so good to visit us so often–we lubs you!
And we loved funny, lovable and hilarious Easy. XOXOXO
Thank you for visiting us, we wish you a Happy New Year too- we love you Spitty! XO
What a lovely reminder of all the things we can do. Thank you.
Have a purrfect day. My best to your mom. 🙂
Thank you, my Mom sends her best too.
Sounds like an interesting conference. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, it does. I wish I could go.
Great info and help is always needed for those less fortunate.

Wonderful reminder to help those less fortunate animals especially in the winter.
It sure is, I feel so bad for all the kitties out in the cold.
We’re burning a candle for Easy and for all our friends who have gone to the Bridge this year.
The Florida Furkids
That is very kind. XO
Thank you so much for this message and reminder!
Maggie and Felix know what is important. 🙂
thanks so much for the candle of love… I hope it will be the light of hope for all who are sad for a furkid they lost…
You’re welcome. XO
I have a candle burning for Easy, too. So many candles!
A very good guest post. So many kitties and people who need help. We volunteer at our local shelter to socialize the cats and kittens and I help support TinyKittens in any way I can.
Easy was very loved by all. I am glad you help to socialize, that is nice of you.
You are so right…there’s always something we can do to volunteer!
We sure can.
Thanks for a good reminder of the fact that we need to care for those furs without furmilies/dens to call their own.
I agree, it was a great reminder.
We do what we can to help out the kitties in need. Thank you for reminding us to remember them especially during the cold winter months.
I feel bad for all cats outdoors.
