Pets make our day brighter, and it’s only fair to take a day to thank our animal companions. This is exactly what International Cat Day tries by celebrating our cat friends and raising awareness for holistic care. International Cat Day, which is celebrated on August 8th each year, was launched in 2002 by the International Fund for Animal Welfare. The animal rights organization uses the day to promote the needs and wants of cats and encourages cat owners to find new ways to bond with their pets. Special attention is also paid to promoting the adoption of stray cats.
The official “watchdog” of International Cat Day is the organization International Cat Care. According to the official website, the theme of the day this year is “Be Cat Curious – Training for Cats and their Humans ”.
According to the organization, the topic was selected based on data showing that up to 95% of cat owners needed advice on how to train their cats. In addition, at least half of the cat parents said they even had difficulty getting their cat into the cat carrier.
