Blog for Peace 2026: Cats for Peace
Cat Wisdom 101 :: 11/04/2026 7:25:20 PM
Somehow, November 4 crept up on me this year and I completely forgot that it was time for Blog for Peace! It’s a tradition I’ve been part of for years, and one I always look forward to. The idea is simple but meaningful: bloggers around the world come together to share a message of peace, using their voices and creativity to remind us that compassion, kindness and understanding still matter. Over the years, I’ve created different graphics to mark the occasion, usually featuring the globe and, naturally, cats. You can see some…

Samhain: Remembering the Cats We’ve Loved
Cat Wisdom 101 :: 10/31/2026 1:23:09 AM
When the Veil Is Thin: Remembering the Cats We’ve Loved and Lost at Samhain/ Halloween Halloween has its share of spooky traditions, but there is another, older meaning to this time of year. In the pagan calendar, Samhain (pronounced Sow-in) marks the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. It is a time to honor our ancestors, reflect on the cycle of life and death, and remember those who have crossed over. There is a longstanding belief in pagan and shamanic traditions that the veil between the…

Cat Halloween Costumes: Cats Did Not Ask for This
Cat Wisdom 101 :: 10/21/2026 7:40:38 PM
Americans plan to spend $0.92 billion on pet costumes this year. Mind blown 🤯That’s nearly a billion dollars, and I’d bet my last can of tuna that most cats had no say in it. Pumpkins, hot dogs and ghosts are among the popular picks. Dogs get the dinosaurs. Cats get whatever they can’t claw their way out of. I’ve been doing this for sixteen years, so I know how this goes. I’m not against a costume. I’m against a hostage situation. This is Lumi’s first Halloween with us, and I honestly have…

Weird, Wonderful, Whimsical Black Cats
Cat Wisdom 101 :: 10/12/2026 11:48:08 PM
Sixteen years of blogging and years of Black Cat Awareness Month means I’ve run out of ways to reinvent the wheel. So this year I went digging through my archives and found some unexpected gold, some never seen before plus a few things I’ve rejiggered and made new. I’m also sharing a new picture book that’s too cute not to include, and I’ll link to the author below. No big essay, just a fun wander through some black cat treasure. It’s no surprise that some of the most famous writers and artists…

Black Cat Awareness Month: 10 Years Later
Cat Wisdom 101 :: 10/02/2026 8:54:13 PM
Yup, still black after all these years. And a few new shareable graphics. I started Black Cat Awareness Month at my kitchen table around the same time, I launched that Wisdom 101 in 2011. Officially though the event launched in 2016, but who’s counting? I wanted to give overlooked black cats a month of their own, and I had no idea what I was starting. Now every October my feeds fill with house panthers. There are black cat groups, pages, and hashtags I’ve never heard of, and I love it. A holiday that outgrows…

Happy Now? What Happy Cat Month Actually Means to Cats
Cat Wisdom 101 :: 09/25/2026 10:26:25 PM
The expression, “happy now?” Nobody who says it is actually asking. It’s what you say when someone got exactly what they wanted and you’re pretty sure they’re still going to find something to complain about. Otto, at the age of 14, two years ago and is one of the happiest cats I’ve ever known. Which is, weirdly, the perfect way to think about Happy Cat Month Because if you asked most cats what happiness requires, they would not say “toys.” They would not say “a heated bed…

Throwback Caturday: A Siamese Wedding
Cat Wisdom 101 :: 09/19/2026 2:33:56 AM
Way back in the early days of Cat Wisdom 101, all us cat bloggers knew each other. Every Saturday, which I called Cat Saturday before the rest of the internet made it Caturday, we’d blog hop from house to house like neighbors dropping by with a casserole. We didn’t care about numbers or algorithms. We cared about who was up to what, and whose cat had done something outlandish. Some posts were serious. Some were pure first-person silliness, written from the cat’s point of view with spelling that would make an…

Goodness, I came across this site and wasn't aware there were so many other bloggers out there!

How refreshing to know there are so many people giving out good information about cats when usually it's more about dogs. If you get a chance maybe you'll give my new site a quick look for fun.
