 | A bit of a switch this week. It's important for us to understand why some people don't particularly like cats. I have friends who fit into that category, and I'm sure many of my readers do too. On the other paw, if you find this newsletter helpful, please forward it to another cat lover, or send them the link below. Have a great weekend, and keep yourself and your cats cool.

7 Reasons People Don't Like Cats
 You might be wondering "Why on earth would anyone dislike cats?" Although there are likely more than seven reasons why someone might not like cats, or even profess to hate them, this article covers what I consider to be seven main reasons.
Look at this sweet face. Could you imagine why anyone would dislike this pretty calico girl? Could it be that they are bothered with allergies to cats, so severe that they suffer disabling asthmatic attacks when even in the same house as a cat? Yes, that's one of the seven reasons. Read the list to disover six more.

| Cat Picture of the Week: Lucy
Loneliness can be a motivator to adopt a cat, as "Tootsie" discovered after her feline companion of 17 years passed on. Three months later, she decided to take a trip to the Birmingham Humane Shelter "just to look." She didn't have to look long to discover Lucy (then named "Priscilla,") who had free range of the infirmary. Lucy, a blue-eyed, gray and white part Siamese kitty, was sitting in the infirmary window looking at her. Tootsie and Lucy said "hello," and the deal was sealed.
