Mars the Terrific Tonkinese

[tatsxxx11]

Hi Mars! Happy Cat of the Day to you! What a treat it is this Saturday afternoon, seeing a beautiful, "seasoned" Tonkinese up on my screen, and what a deserving Cat of the Day honoree you are, Mars! And just how special are you??? Let me count the ways! You're not only beautiful to look at, but packed with personality, personality to spare; so fun loving, so adventurous, so athletic, so affectionate, so sociable, so CHATTY! It's no wonder that all who cross your path fall hopelessly in love with your delightful, charming self! You truly are a gem of a boy, Mars, and your family so very lucky to have a furkid, a best friend, a loving companion in you! Thanks for the BIG smiles, sweet baby boy! Meeting you, reading all about your happy life, seeing all of those precious pics (love that tonsil shot), was the perfect ending to my day! Hope you're enjoying YOUR big day in the spotlight, chowing down on all of those yummy foods you crave, getting into all sorts of mischief, being spoiled rotten! Lots of love, hugs and kisses to you, precious Mars!

What a gorgeous kitty you are - and named after one of my favorite chocolate bars! It would be funny to hear what Mars and my kitty Caramel would sound like together (Caramel is very vocal and sometimes scares my visitors when he makes a really gruff meow!).

I have to mention that working with rescues we have heard of many cats (and dogs) having emergency and very costly visits to the vet from drinking out of the toilet bowl. A friend of mine even spent over $1500 trying to figure out what was wrong with her cat. The toilet bowl, no matter how good a housekeeper you are, does not have clean water - think of what we do in there... residue of human waste (not to mention cleaners) can be on the bowl and therefore in the water. Also, I will never forget when I was a little girl with two brothers and they would leave the seat up. Luckily the bathroom was near the kitchen because all of a sudden my mother heard a banging noise. Turns out our cat Whisper had been trying to drink out of the toilet and had fallen in; the lid closed on him - luckily he didn't seem to have been knocked out or he could have drowned. Just not a good idea to let our precious furry families drink out of the toilet ever. You can leave the tap running slightly instead.
