Virgo8/23 – 9/22You have a beautiful coat. Let others enjoy it as well and make your presence known when company is over. Purring won’t hurt either. People think that is so cute.

Libra9/23 – 10/22They just give you way too much atten-tion and you need some space. Get to a high place and perch there.

Scorpio10/23 – 11/21You are a cat of many colors. You are very good at blending in and going with the flow. Take a stand and be different. Try something new.

Aries 3/21 - 4/19 You are always getting into things. Things you shouldn’t be in. Be more cautious. Nine lives go fast when you’re careless and don’t watch out for what’s best for you.

Cancer 6/21 – 7/22They keep scolding you for bringing them small, dead animals. Take a break and bask in the sun. Maybe they’ll appreciate you more when they have mice running all over the place.

YouTube has been overrun by cat videos and no one is complaining. It’s the best sub-stitute for a cat of your own and is a whole lot cheaper too. Here’s a list of the best cat vid-eos for a day when you need a little cheering up.

“Maru the Cat” by mugumoguIf Maru is Mugumogu’s cat,

they’re the luckiest cat owner on the planet. I’m reduced to a pile of laughter every time that silly kitty gets a running start at a cereal box or takes the

leap of faith into a refrigerator box.

“Surprised Kitty” by rozzzaflyThis is by far one of the

most adorable cat videos I’ve ever seen. Who would have thought cats might be ticklish?

“Nyan Cat” by saraj00nIf you need to annoy any-

one, just find the 12-hour ver-sion of this video. Don’t ask me how an animated Pop-Tart cat became so famous — I honestly have no idea.

“I’m a Kitty Cat” by lyesmomAnother absurdly CATchy

song (see what I did there) that you won’t be able to get out of your head. “I’m a cat. I’m a Kitty Cat. And I meow, meow, meow. And I meow, meow, meow. I’m a cat.” You get the idea.

“They See Me Rollin’” by SamRS94

It’s a cat … riding a tortoise. Need I say more?

“Cat-Friend vs. Dog-Friend” by fatawesomefilms

This video is the most accu-rate depiction by humans I’ve ever seen of cats and dogs. I’ll take one of each please.

“Cat Jump Fail with Mu-sic: Sail by AWOLNATION” by Veronica Duff

This might not be as funny if the music weren’t so per-fectly timed. Regardless, it’s 30 seconds of pure anticipa-tion and four seconds of

absolute terror because this cat doesn’t quite have enough spring it’s leap.

“KITTEN in Hamster Ball stuck in middle” by lekilimark

That poor cat is stuck in the hamster ball and I just can’t help but cheer for it as it finds a way out. I would say it’s cruel to put a cat in a hamster ball, but that cat crawled in there all by itself so my laugh-ter is justified.

In a world where dogs double as secret agents and cats are trained ninjas with a fierce leader attempting to rule over the human race,

there is only one question: who will rise to the top and reign supreme?

In the 2001 action/adventure family comedy, ‘Cats & Dogs,’ unbeknownst to the humans, a war between cats and dogs quickly peaks when a dog named Buddy is ambushed and “catnapped” by an evil army of cats working under the white Persian cat menace, Mr. Tinkles.

Mr. Tinkles (voiced by Sean Hayes), along with his evil sidekick Calico (voiced by Jon Lovitz), plans to conquer the world by making all humans allergic to dogs through pre-venting Buddy’s owner, Profes-sor Brody (Jeff Goldblum), from creating a serum to cure dog allergies.

An adventure-seeking Beagle puppy named Lou (voiced by Tobey Maguire) gets adopted by the Brody family and gets caught in the crossfire as Buddy’s replacement to protect the Brody house and the serum from the cats.

Lou — with the help of an Anatolian Shepherd named Butch (voiced by Alec Baldwin), a Chinese Crested dog named Peek (voiced by Joe Panto-liano) and an English Sheepdog named Sam (voiced by Michael Clarke Duncan) — tries hard to succeed as a secret agent, and in being a friend to the young Scotty Brody (Alexander

Pollock).While the humans continue

through their busy lives, the cats make several attempts to capture the formula as their canine foes work endlessly to stop them.

Although this is a family-friendly comedy, even college students will find themselves entertained by the ongoing battle of which animal is supe-rior between cats and dogs.

Like many pet-oriented films, there is always the is-sue of cheesy dialogue and predictable plot twists with a few questionable special effects (talking pets being one of them), as well as the oh-so-familiar conclusion of uniting boy and dog, but the movie makes for light-hearted enter-taining night nonetheless.

‘Cats & Dogs’!was nomi-nated for the!Young Artist Award!for Best Family Fea-ture Film (Comedy) and Best Performance in a Feature Film — Leading Young Actor (Alexan-der Pollock).

The sequel,!‘Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore,’ was released the summer of 2010 with the return of actors Duncan, Pantoliano and Hayes in their roles as Sam, Peek and Mr. Tinkles. Nick Nolte and!Wallace Shawn!replace Baldwin!and!Lovitz!as Butch and Calico

Lou, now an adult dog, is voiced by!Neil Patrick Harris and joined by!James Mars-den,!Christina Applegate and!Bette Midler!as the voices of new characters named Diggs, Catherine and Kitty Galore.

A Crumbs Recipe Card

Just as with people food, store-bought cat food con-tains tons of chemicals and preservatives which makes it less nutritious. This may not be something cat owners think of, but you can in fact

make homemade cat food. But there are some foods to avoid when making a home-made meal for your felines. Don’t use onions, bacon, chocolate, pork, bones or raw eggs. Here’s a chunky chicken and rice mush recipe to make for your furry friend.

molly spencerrawr

Ingredients1. Hard boiled egg2. 1/2 lb ground chicken (beef is okay too)3. 1/4 cup brown rice4. 4 tsp olive oil5. 1 cup chicken stock

How toFirst, mash the boiled egg. Next, place all ingredients into a sauce pan and boil. When the stock is boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes or until the stock reduces, and watch for rice to absorb water and swell. Once stock reduces, remove cat food mixture from heat and allow it to cool completely. Throw all of the ingredients into a food processor or blender until they are mashed and mixed. Voila! Kitty din-din. And maybe dinner for you too. After all, it is people food.

In many countries, declawing cats is illegal, but in the U.S., it is still legal. Many people debate whether this process is humane or inhumane.

Choosing to declaw a cat is a big decision. Many people don’t under-stand just how big that decision really is. Declawing cats is remov-ing a bone from the paw. Cats have three bones in each finger just like a human and the claw is the third one on the end. By declawing a cat, that third bone is removed.

“I don’t think that declaws should be taken as lightly as some people take them,” said Melissa Kuhrt, a doctor of veterinary medicine. “People don’t know that we are amputating a toe.”

Another process that some people choose to do instead of declawing the cat is called a tenectomy. This is a process in which the tendon which allows the cat to extrude their claws is cut. This way, the cat can keep their claws but they can’t use them to damage anything.

On the subject of inhumane versus humane, a tenectomy is more inhumane than actually declaw-ing the cat, said Vera Milosh from Pets Are People Too. Because the cat still has its claws, it want to claw at things but it can’t. At least when the cats are declawed, they can still do the clawing motion but cause no damage. They just seem to get frustrated with the tenectomy.

Many people choose to declaw their cats for their own benefit. Whether it is for behavioral modi-fication or just to protect their furniture, people want it done. There is no health advantage for the cat to be declawed, which is why many people argue that it is inhumane. If the cat was born with deformed paws, then it is a medical procedure that has to be done for the cat to be more comfortable by a doctor’s suggestion.

Ultimately it is the doctor’s deci-sion to perform the procedure. Some will refuse to do the procedure no matter what the argument is, but at the Moscow Animal Clinic, Kuhrt will do it.

“We usually recommend do-

ing them before 6 months of age because we still have cartilage in there and there is less bone being damaged when we are doing the actual procedure,” Kuhrt said. “In the younger kitties they usually respond quickly and they rarely act like there has been a big procedure done.”

Other disadvantages to declawing cats include taking away their main way of self-defense, so it is impor-tant to keep them inside, Kuhrt said. Older cats may not be able to walk the same after the procedure and seem to never really be the same. It is also important to keep an eye on the paws after the procedure to make sure the paws are healing correctly because it is possible for abnormal nail growth, she said.

Most times, Kuhrt recommends not declawing the older cats, but when it is the only saving fac-tor from going to the shelter, she would rather declaw the cat for the owner than see the cat be put in the shelter.

Milosh said it is a natural thing for cats to claw at things. That is how they shed their nails.

There are many alternatives to declawing cats or having a tenec-tomy done. Scratching posts are most common, but there are a lot of different options. Cats like different things and it constantly changes so it is up to the owner to keep up with cats’ needs. Another option is Soft Paws. Soft Paws are a cover for the claws that are super glued onto the claw. They have to be reapplied every four to six weeks but can be great alternative for owners who are willing to keep up with them. Some cats won’t stay still long enough for the application of the soft paws, but the Moscow Animal Clinic will apply them on request.

Declawing a cat is a big decision that will affect the cat for the rest of its life. A consultation with the doc-tor is done before the procedure so that the owner knows exactly what is being done and what it will do to the cat. The debate whether it is in-humane or humane will go on and is really up to each individual person.

There are times when sassy is mistaken for being grumpy or cranky. This occurs most often with our favorite Inter-net star Tardar

Sauce, more commonly known as Grumpy Cat.

Tardar Sauce is one of the most misunderstood cats, but she possesses a philosophy myself and others share.

Tardar Sauce isn’t grumpy, she’s brutally honest. When she doesn’t like something, she says “No.”

Yes, her face may mislead oth-ers, but tone of voice can do the same thing. Sar-casm is often hard to detect in those of us who practice it often.

She doesn’t let people get away with saying stupid things or being ignorant in general. Such as this motivational gem.

“I’m sorry that I offended you when I called you stupid. I honestly thought you knew.”

Her take on staying healthy is extraordinary.

“Your face uses more muscles to frown than smile. What can I say, I’m addicted to fitness.”

Grumpy Cat has an ap-proach to people that I find inspiring.

“I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.”

And, “I thought I couldn’t be more disappointed, you proved me wrong.”

Some might think her ap-proach to insincere kindness is over the top.

Such as this response, “Have a nice day? Don’t tell me what to do!”

But I think she’s just being honest with herself, something everyone could do more often.

The same can be said about her feelings toward different types of people.

“There are two kinds of people in this world and I don’t like them.”

Last but not least in the Grumpy Cat phrase fun-bank,

“My blood type is be negative.”

Aside from her approach to life, there are a few other things Tardar Sauce and I share.

As revealed in her video to the internet world, she loves Star-bucks Coffee Cake. I love Starbucks.

She doesn’t like pictures taken of her-self. I avoid them like the plague, unless there is a Thizz face to be made, a grill to be had or a photo-

bomb to execute. A mentality she clearly shares.

Perhaps the most important similarity between Grumpy Cat and myself is our love of sleep.

“The worst thing after wak-ing up? Everything until I go to bed again.”

She may be offensive to those who don’t understand her, but living life the way Grumpy Cat does — carefree, honest and with a daily dose of Starbucks — is a philosophy I can get behind. As should everyone else.

This is the time of year the Humane Society of the Palouse sees a lot of kittens.

“We have two litters of bottle babies right now and a pregnant momma,” Don Nick-les from the humane society said.

The number of cats the humane society takes in is a somewhat flexible number be-cause it’s easier to alter a cage to fit two cats than it would be for two dogs.

“This time of year our num-bers will jump because we get litters of kittens,” Trina Pickett from the HSOP said. “We’ll have one week where we get a dozen cats in and one week where we only get one.”

Pickett said the most cats the HSOP has ever had one time was more than 120 felines.

“That’s really overpopulated for us,” she said. “We usually try to stay under about 80.”

Nickles said the cats move out of the shelter much faster than dogs because most people can only have cats where they live.

It’s harder for people to get dogs from the humane society because of age, breed and behavior, he said.

“People tend to turn in the unruly dogs with no manners,” he said.

In the HSOP there are roughly 12 cages in the front room that hold cats of all different shapes, sizes and tem-peraments. In the back, where employees are, even more cats reside. Then there are two rooms completely dedicated to cats. The two rooms are con-nected by a large, outdoor kitty porch. And of course there

are the kitties who are lucky enough to roam freely around the shelter.

“Cats that roam have been here long enough to make their own rules,” Pickett said. “Cats usually win around here.”

Nickles said if he had to pick a favorite, his would be a long-haired orange tabby with a sweet personality named Tig. Nickles said he likes Tig because he reminds him of a cat he has at home.

Pickett’s favorite cat, if she had to choose, is Suzie, a long-haired black cat who sat in the front in her own large cage. When the HSOP found Suzie, she was skinny, losing hair and sick. She eventually was nursed back to health, but soon after became sick again. This was when Pickett decided to foster Suzie herself. She nursed Suzie back to health once again, and believe it or not, Suzie had became ill … again. This time with a serious eye infection. After fostering her for three months, Pickett was finally able to bring the somewhat blind but healthy Suzie back to the shelter.

“We kind of have a history,” Pickett said.

As college students we have enough responsibilities. For me, it’s taking classes, work-ing a part-time job and spending more time on the student newspaper than I should.

But no matter how busy I get there’s al-ways one thing I have time for — spending time with my cat Ser-ena. My two-and-a-half year old Turkish Angora has lived with me for more than a year now, and was my mother’s birthday gift to me after my first semester at the University of Idaho.

As any cat owner should feel, to me she’s the coolest cat in the world. Her person-

ality is never boring, she’s personable, she loves to play and of course she’s lovable.

Her breed is rare, athletic, curious, very social with humans and very intelligent for a cat. She loves to poke her nose into whatever I’m doing, as if she gets jealous or upset that I’d do anything without her when I’m home. If I’m on my laptop she’ll

lay on the keyboard. “That’s cool, Serena. It’s not

like I’m trying to be produc-tive or anything,” I tell her.

I can’t even play video games without her nudging herself onto my lap and paw-ing at the controller.

I put up with it because it’s adorable. Besides, it brings up tons of photo opportuni-ties. I’d estimate I have more than 100 pictures of her on my phone … or my Facebook page.

I can’t really help it, since every day with Serena is an adventure. She’s always trying to explore and discover. Like me, she hates being bored, which is why we probably get along so well.

Even getting her to Mos-cow was an adventure. She staunchly refused to stay in the makeshift cat-carrier I had, instead breaking herself out of cat-jail and crawling into the trunk where she calmly hung out during the five-hour trek from Seattle.

From there she made herself at home at my apart-ment, which I’ve lived in and will continue to live in for my entire time in Moscow. It took her all of five minutes to explore every square-inch of my place — she takes the cat curiosity cliché to a dif-ferent level.

She loves to try to be an outside cat, even though I don’t let her. Of course she’s stubborn, and my attempts don’t stop her. Many a time I’ve come home to an empty house and gone outside to look for her. She’ll eventually find her way home if I don’t find her, in which case she’ll put on her princess hat and act like she didn’t do any-

thing wrong. All in all she’s made my

time as an Idaho student all the more fulfilling. There’s nothing like coming home from a stressful day of school or work to see her run up and start obnoxiously meowing. I still like to tell myself it’s be-cause she misses me, but most of the time it means she’s hungry (sometimes I think she eats more pounds of food per day than I do).

And sometimes it’s a nice hangover remedy to wake up to fuzz and purrs in your face.

Maybe one day you’ll have a cat as awesome as mine.

The Internet is obsessed with cats. This fact was clearly illustrated when Google built a neural network that was able to learn what the concept of a cat was from Internet images without it being previously programmed into the machine.

“A lot of cute pet videos are also really popular, but they are not quite as popular as cats. Part of that is an addiction thing. People get mentally ad-dicted to stuff and on the Inter-net you will never know what that will be. At the moment it is cats,” University of Idaho senior Sharayah Wilcock said.

Cats have affected human culture through the Internet and even human history. Cats were first domesticated by humans during the Neolithic Revolution approximately

12,000 years ago. “I think that there is a

certain amount of truth in the joke that cats domesticated us because one of the things that everyone says about a cat is that they are very indepen-dent. Cats tend to be indepen-dent, as a result that you don’t tend to see a lot of the spec-trum that cats are wonderful and cats are horrible as seen in dogs,” Ellen Kittell, an associ-ate professor of the History Department said.

Cats fall on a whole spectrum of being gods as in the case of the Egyptian god Bastet. In ancient Egypt, Bastet was worshiped as a goddess of protection against diseases and is also referred to as the Eye of Ra.

Kittell said like many Egyptian gods and goddesses, Bastet was part human and part animal, with the head of a

cat and the body of a woman. Cats also take on godlike quali-ties due to the belief and say-ing that cats have nine lives.

“That’s one of those hard things we can’t pinpoint an origin,” Kittell said. “The fact that it is in the culture when we begin to write things down suggests that it is an idea that number one: was widespread, and number two: was in the oral tradition. The fact that we have visual representations of cats as gods may be a sugges-tion that we have an issue of reincarnation. But I think it’s recognized by human cul-ture and civilization that cats seem to survive evidences or instances that would claim the lives of others, hence we get the situation where cats have nine lives.”

Rats had an important role in the Black Death, or bu-bonic plague, the most deadly

disease outbreak in western history. Kittell said the bubonic plague had a 60 percent fatal-ity rate and that the plague outbreak was prefaced by a period of famine. The plague’s origins can surprisingly be traced back to cats.

“In the early part of the century in Europe, in certain places they thought the fam-ines were brought on by bad weather so they started blam-ing cats, so they killed them off. And then the rats come because the bubonic plague is associated with the flea….be-cause it infects a flea that lives only on rats.” Kittell said.

Since many cats were killed, the rat population exploded across many parts of Europe and spread the Black Death. Cats were further associated with one of the first workers revolts in history.

Kittell said that in the early

1730s a rich printing shop own-er had several apprentices and several cats. After a while, the apprentices got angry that the printing shop owner, whose duty it was to feed and clothe the apprentices, was feeding the apprentices spoiled meat while the cats were getting fresh meat.

One apprentice was fed up with being overworked and underfed so he rounded up all of the cats, put them on trial, and hanged them all.

On the Internet, cats have many trends, from Nyan Cat to Grumpy Cat, which have worldwide recognition. But alas, often cats do not receive proper recognition for their historical achievements as well as their adorable achieve-ments.

Why do cats like catnip?Catnip is an herb located in the

mint family that when crushed re-leases a chemical called nepetalactone. When the chemical is released, the cat will tend to roll in the catnip, smell it and occasionally — cats will eat it. Once the kitty has come in contact with the nepetalactone, the cat acts as if it’s on some sort of hallucinogen. Catnip is not harmful to cats even though it may impair them temporar-ily. Some cats won’t want anything to do with catnip.

What do you call a group of cats?We all know a group of kittens is

called a litter. But then what do you

call a group of adult cats? A clowder. A male cat (when neutered) is called a “gib,” if not fixed, he is called a “tom.” And female cats are called “molly.”

Are cats colorblind? Through years of research, it has

been discovered that cats have both rods and cones in their eyes. After neurologists wired cats’ brains using electrodes in order to find out if a cat’s brain can in fact distinguish between different shades of color — the conclu-sion was cats are not colorblind.

What happens when you cut a cat’s whiskers?

It’s true, whiskers on cats are es-sentially a fifth sensory organ. Damaging a cat’s whiskers will cause it discomfort as well as disorientation and confu-sion. Whiskers aren’t just regular hairs

on a cats face. They are located deep within the follicle, being surrounded by a muscle tissue sensitive to nerves and sensory cells. The purpose of whiskers is to serve as an “environmental scanning system.” Whiskers are so sensitive that a cat does not actually have to touch an object with whiskers to know it’s there.
