We’d like to know..what cat related emoji do you wish existed? For me, it’s kitty treats 😸 (Joel the Brave)
Part of World Emjoi Day
Another name for an emjoi is an emoticon, meaning an emotional icon. Get it emo is short for emotional and well of course, icon for icon.
An estimated 500,000 pets are affected annually by home fires, however, nearly 1,000 house fires each year are accidentally started by the homeowners’ pets, according to a new data analysis by the National Fire Protection Association.
The American Kennel Club® (AKC®) and ADT Security Services have joined forces once again for the third annual National Pet Fire Safety Day (July 15) to spread awareness about how pets can start home fires but more importantly how to prevent them.
“Not many pet owners realize that their pet can actually be the cause of a devastating fire,” said AKC spokesperson Lisa Peterson. “Simple preventative measures, such as flameless candles and stove knob covers, can mean the difference between life and death for your four-legged friends.”
Chris and Kay Wardlow of Oklahoma know that all too well. Their curious dog Lucy was home alone and spied a cake on the stove top. As Lucy tried to get a taste, her paw accidentally hit the stove knob and turned on the gas burner that was under the cake pan. Within minutes, the house was filled with smoke, triggering the Wardlow’s ADT monitored smoke detector. Firefighters were called to the scene, the house was saved and Lucy was rescued.
“Planning for unexpected emergencies like home fires and taking these precautions are an integral part of responsible pet ownership,” Peterson said.
AKC® and ADT offer the following tips to educate pet owners on how to prevent your beloved pet from starting a fire, as well as how to keep your pets safe.
In partnership with the National Volunteer Fire Council, pet owners can obtain a free Pet Fire Safety Window Cling on National Pet Fire Safety Day, July 15th at local volunteer firehouses nationwide. For a list of locations, visit www.nvfc.org/windowclings. The clings are also free online at www.adt.com/pets and will be available this September at your local AKC Responsible Dog Ownership Day. This year’s flagship event will be held in Raleigh on September 25th. Visit https://www.akc.org/clubs/rdod/ for more information on an event near you. Additionally the clings will be available at Meet the BreedsTM, October 16th and 17th at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City. For more information, visit www.meetthebreeds.com.

Happy Independence Day – remember we Cats get scared hearing those fireworks 💥
You hoomans love to watch and set off
Today is a special day for me. Today makes 2 years that I got my Ms Heather.
Last year, I shared the Gotcha story (Happy Gotcha Day, Ms Heather).
A Lot has happened over these 2 years. I got a Dadda hooman and a sissy (becoming a family), and you fans keeps visiting our blog, Instagram & even our twitter.
Life with her and Dadda and even Sissy is great. But it also makes me think of all the kitties that no has hoomans, that no has a family. Though there are many things I might like to has (like a truck of treats or unlimited belly rubs), most of all for my 2nd Gotcha-versary I wants more kitties to get adopted- for more kitties to get rescued.
Maybe you no can has a kitty for some reason. I gets that. My hooman brother Dillon is allergic, so we has to keeps distance from him when he’s with Momma and Daddy. Or maybes you live some place you no can has any kind of furrbabies. But you can still donate food, litter, or even small toys to local rescues and shelters.
I lives a very blessed Cat life. Momma and Daddy does spoil me and sissy with treats and toys (though string is still my favorite) . So, for my 2nd Gotcha-versary, I would like donations be sent to local rescues and shelters.
Thank mew for continuing to follow Sissy and I along our adventures. We hope to be doing more videos for mew along the way. We lub you, and are grateful you lub us.
Head bumps. Purr.
