This is Furby the kitten who had to have an operation on her leg. Isn't she adorable?



and a very happy new year from my cat wears clothes!

Remember you have till January 15th to get your submission in! Picture of your cat with mycatwearsclothes.com written (or typed as in Cecil's case) on a piece of paper/cardboard/tshirt/whatever in the same frame as your cat! No photoshop please! Only real pictures!

Take a picture of your cat with "mycatwearsclothes.com" written down
on a piece of paper or printed on a piece of paper or... well you get
the idea! Basically get the cat and this paper (or whatever it is) in
the same photo and send it in and you'll be entered to win a $25
prize. I will be taking a picture of Simon to give an example of
what I'm talking about - It'll be posted on the site tonight! I don't
mean just photoshopping in the website address or anything like that..
to be eligible it has to be a real picture. All of the eligible
submissions will be entered into the contest - I will be drawing the
winner from all of the submissions on January 15th! This will be a
*random* drawing. If there's only one entry then you win
automatically! If there's 10 entries then you have a 1 in 10 chance
of winning and so on. All of the entries will be shown on the site of
course! Please include the name of your cat in your submission. This
is just the first of these types of ideas - I want to make this site
very interactive so that we can have an idea for a certain type of cat
picture and then people actually take that picture and send it in!

Cecil that crazy cat is in to it again! This time he's in a bowl! Cecil is quite the cat star!

Hope you are all having a wonderful day.

Hopefully this very fluffy cat sitting on a guitar will make it that much more wonderful:

If there's a Santa Clause in the cat world I think we've found him! Here's Fizbin the world's largest cat wearing a Santa hat!

This is Pheonix (Phiney) wearing a Sorcerer's Hat with a Tiara on it. Quite an interesting look for a cat!

Tigers are the distant relatives of our little house cats. The main difference between tigers and house cats being that a tiger could eat you if he wishes. I love cats and I find lions, tigers, and cheetahs to be some of the most fascinating impressive creatures in the world. I love to think that Simon is related to these beasts!

Here's another great photo sent in by Rose (thanks to Rose for all of her wonderful submissions!)

Three Tigers Taking A Bath:

Sly is the latest entry into the world's biggest cat contest!

I really said it all in the topic!

http://www.1-800-save-a-pet.com cat adoption

I had an earlier post about cat adoption and Rose mentioned it'd be a
good idea to make a post about this adoption site as well. And I
agree! It definitly feels like part of the holiday spirit you know.
I know we can't all take on another cat but if you know someone who is
looking for a cat or if you do have enough space for an extra kitty in
your life - definitly check out this website!

Got a big cat? Is your cat HUGE?! Is your cat even bigger than Fizbin? Send in your submissions to mycatwearsclothes@yahoo.com !

Here's Fizbin "The World's Largest/Biggest/Hugest Cat!"

I'm starting a new promotion here at MyCatWearsClothes.com to try and get more people posting on the Cat Forum here! I think this cat forum could be a great place for cat lovers from all over the world to chat about all things cat (and anything you want really, there's a non cat section!) but I've been having a hard time getting enough active forum users to really get it going!

So I've decided to offer a $25 prize just for writing forum posts on the cat forum!

Here are the conditions and details:

1. Prize winner of $25 US Dollars will be chosen at random on February 1, 2007.

2. Spam and posts of 1 sentence or less will not be counted! Only real genuine contributions please! This forum is monitored by ME and all spam will be deleted.

3. The more posts you make the more chances you get to win! You must make atleast 6 posts to be eligible and then each post after that is another entry! It works like this. If you make 25 posts then you would get 20 prize entries (25-5 = 20) if you make 6 posts then you get 1 prize entry! (6-5=1)

4. Payment will be made by Paypal. It would be much easier for me to pay by paypal! But if you do not have a paypal account and you win the prize I can try and accomodate you by paying by personal check.

5. Winner will be chosen by random # out of all of the entries eligible!

6. The prize will be raised from $25 all the way up to $100 if there are 1000 *active* participants who have made atleast 6 posts by February 1! This is to encourage people to tell their friends and get more and more people involved! I want this to be the best and most active cat forum on the entire internet. One great way to make sure we get over 1000 participants by February 1 is to Digg! this entry and also add it to Netscape and Delicious - you can use the links at the bottom of this post to do this! It should really help get the word out!

Join the CAT FORUM today and start posting so you'll be eligible for the prize!



oh and...

here's Cecil the cat (one of our star cats!) in a dishwasher!

Fluff is appropriately named because Fluff is very fluffy! Here Fluff is outside enjoying what looks to be a very nice day in the shade of a lawn mower!

Do you have a kitten you believe to be even cuter than "Gypsy" ??? submit your kitten!

Inky the cat in the basket!

OK, it may have originally been an apron, although I'm not really sure. But I think it works as a splendid cape on Raisin the cat!

Paul sent in some great pictures of his cat Rio who sadly passed away just over a year ago.

Paul took lots of pictures of Rio which is nice because now she can be remembered. She was a very photogenic cat as you can see and she especially seems to have had a penchant for wearing hats! Here she is wearing many hats (and a mask!)

Meet Banana & Fern : Sister Kittens.

tiny Banana



tiny messy kitty Fern



kitten sisters playing!



Banana & Fern are the pet cats of Steve owner of Brooklyn's Premiere Dog Walking, Pet Sitting, and Cat Visiting Service!

Simon has always loved drinking water out of a glass. He doesn't much care for drinking water out of his bowl, he'd much rather find a glass of water that you are drinking and take a sip of that! He'll even do this while you are holding the cup. Here's a couple of photos a younger Simon (taken last November I believe) investigating a glass of water.

This entry is about cat adoption! Many people out there are looking for a cat to adopt and I want to help let them know some of the best ways to go about doing that.

One our best contributers so far has been a woman named Rose who has sent in some wonderful pictures of her cat Cecil (earlier you saw Cecil in a sink!)

Rose volunteers for a non profit group called "Friends of the Attleboro Animal Shelter" which rescues stray cats and dogs and helps find them homes! They are located in Attleboro, MA.

Rose puts up pictures of the cats and dogs they rescue on the PETFINDER.COM website. This is a great website if you are searching for a cat to adopt. All you have to do is put in your zip code and you can search for cats available in your area!

Check out CatsPlay for some awesome christmas gifts for cats and also for cat lovers! They have a huge selection of cat goodies. It's pretty sweet! I'm thinking about getting Simon the cat DVD because I'm very curious to see what's on a DVD that's made just for a cat to watch. They say that it is specially made to gain and keep a cat's attention and you can play it on your DVD player while you are at work. This will keep your cat busy all day instead of getting bored and getting into trouble (in Simon's case this usually means breaking something.)

Also check Cat Furniture & Cat Toys for more cat gift ideas!

Dan the Cat = Santa Cat! Santa Claus Kitty Cat

This is Fern! She is owned by Steve who is the owner of Brooklyn's Premier Pet Sitting & Dog Walking Service. - And yes his company does provide cat visits in Brooklyn! So if you if you live in Brooklyn and you're going on vacation - you know who to contact to make sure your cats are taken care of.

Check her out playing in her & Banana's tube:

I was sent another great picture! This one features a cat named Punkie-Woo and a newborn baby named Ruby Lou.

Paula sent in a photo of her cat "the Artful Dodger."

The Artful Dodger is a rescue kitten who has gained this name because she picks up pens in her paws and tries to write on paper!

Paula says that she is also a very talkative cat who speaks whenever spoken to!

Here she is in a lurex scarf which compliments her flighty nature:

This is Pheonix who is a 3 year old Russian Blue mix which was rescued from a shelter a year and a half ago. She is a beautiful kitty cat who we'll definitly be seeing more of!

Here she is in her first My Cat Wears Clothes feature! She looks stunning wearing her red cape! She's ready to save the world! It's a bird, it's a plane, no it's Super Cat!



You can also visit Pheonix on her MySpace page.

Boo Boo's mom Sara sent in this great picture of Boo Boo wearing a throwback jersey!

Great new photo sent in! This is Cecil in the Sink!

Cute Kitten Of The Day! Sent In By Tara : This Is Her Adorable Kitten Mickey Doing HIs Best Yoda Impersonation!

It's that time of year again! The new year is upon us. Many of us like to have cat calenders to let us know what day it is while also letting us gaze upon the beautiful face of a house cat! (ha!)

PetCo has a few different cat calanders available to buy online.

Look at Lily! Such a pretty ragdoll kitty. Wearing a birthday hat and everything. She even wrote up a little happy birthday sign! This cat definitly knows how to party.

Now we meet Lily as a young ragdoll kitty. This is Lily's first week home and her first time playing with the Christmas tree! Christmas 2005!

Simon the spokescat at it again. This was his first time meeting this particular bag.

Lily is a beautiful ragdoll cat who is one year old. She has some of the best pictures I've seen in my search for cat pictures to feature here on this site. This picture is adorable. Lily the ragdoll kitty sitting in a bucket. Look at those blue eyes!



Lily is also featured in the Rag doll cat section of the website!

Cats look beautiful in green...

Big Ben


Flying through the air with the greatest of ease,
My brother catapulted his bowl of peas.
looking like meteors, round and green,
I watched them bounce off the window screen.
Then splatting on the counter, or jumping to the floor,
the survivors started heading for the door.
"Oh,no!", I said with a sense of doom,
"If Mom sees this, we'll get the broom"!
As if he heard, here came the cat.
Ben was his name , all big and fat.
He ate every pea, and cleaned the bowl too.
Best part of it is that Mom never knew!
Now every time we have food that we spite,
we simply don't eat it; we put it in flight!
Accross the room, again and again.
Then when we're done we give it to Ben.

Thank you to Sen McCartney for emailing me this cat poem which was written in 1987 and has been included in several anthologies. This is the first cat poetry submission to the site and I'm hoping we get more in the future! Send in your submissions folks!

We all know cats love boxes and Moef is no different.

It also seems that Moef has an interesting way of sitting...

More photos from Laura:

Her orange tabby kitten JJ:



and her orange tabby cat Marc:

Great picture sent in by Laura of her cat JJ climbing the christmas tree! He has definitly got the holiday spirit!

Look how small Taz is in this picture!

In this photo sent in by Laura we see Mark the cat licking/french kissing Taz the kitten! This is one of the best photos we've received so far I think! Very cool.

I've always been a big fan of orange cats since I was a small lad. My first cat, or the first one I remember anyway, was a big ol' orange cat. Or maybe he wasn't that big, maybe I was just small? His name was Nezbit (named after some sort of orange soda that I don't think is made anymore?) Anyway I was reminded of ol' Nezbit when I saw this lovely picture that Laura sent in. A great photo of her orange kitten named JJ at an age of 4 months.

Moef on MySpace

Check out this video Forrest in Arizona sent me: His cat Goose just chillin' on the bed listenin' to some Willie Nelson. Ah, the life of a cat.

The following true story was sent to us by Susie to be posted here on the website. Enjoy!


Yesterday, Lexie had her birthday party. She invited the entire 1st grade. We had 35 children over for a swim party/Luau. It was a blast.

As you may know, Koshka, our cat, has been missing for over 6 weeks. We posted Missing Signs around the neighborhood, visited the Humane Society on several occasions and searched the rugged hills around our home. But to no avail. She had vanished.

Ron and I have always been amazed at the way Lexie seems to be able to communicate with our cats. They respond to her in ways that we can't comprehend. She was devastated when Koshka went missing but we never gave up hope. I told the kids that I felt that Koshka was alive but had "moved on" to a place where she could be happy. She was constantly hissing and growling at her kittens ever since they had became independent. Her motherly instinct had vanished and the two kittens that we kept were a source of annoyance to her.

We never held a Memorial Service because of our belief that she was still alive. But we didn't really expect to see her again, either. We all chose to hold on to the memory of her being alive and well with perhaps another family or even living in the wild.

Lexie's party started at 12:30 yesterday. The kids were arriving with big smiles and ready to party. At 12:30, we had the surprise of our lifetime. Ron was inside the house and I was in backyard welcoming families. Ron heard a kitty meowing. He thought it was Rollie, our big Siamese cry baby. He went to the kitchen door where the sound was coming from. And to his disbelief, Koshka was standing outside on the deck looking up at him as if to say, "Okay, it's 12:30 and I'm here for Lexie's party"!

Ron called Lexie and I into the house. He was standing there holding Koshka in his arms. She was purring loudly and nuzzling up against his chin. Lexie took Koshka in her arms, hugged and kissed her and said, "Koshka, you are the best birthday present I could ever have! Thank you, thank you, thank you"!

Since her return, she seems accepting of the two kittens. I haven't heard a single hiss or growl from any of them. Let's hope this new attitude lasts!

This was truly one of those once in a lifetime moments that I shall never forget. And because it was so special, I wanted to share it with you. Miracles do happen!
