All for the Love of Cats

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
All for the Love of Cats is a collection of stories, poems and interesting facts about America’s most popular pet the house cat. It was written in the 87th year of my life. I am a retired person who never really retired. My life began in April of the year 1935. A time when America suffered from a great depression. I was born in Mount Vernon, New York into a family that was poor. My mother and father married very soon after graduating from high school with no skills to qualify them for good jobs. So, my farther made a merger salary and my mother stayed home with me. His jobs came and went. Before I was five, we moved from Mount Vernon to Cos Cob Connecticut to Riverside, to Roatan, to Old Greenwich. I spent the war years there and at my age ten we moved to a small town in upstate New York named Sempronius where we ran a chicken farm. It was there that I met my first cat and I have loved cats ever since. I left there in 1953, tried a semester of college, flunked out and joined the Navy in Key West, Florida and I didn’t have contact with another cat until I married my wife Kay in 1962 and we bought a copper-eyed Persian cat named Buzzy. Buzzy lived with us for nineteen years and after he died, we didn’t have another cat until the nineteen eighties when a white short-hair cat named Marco Polo came to our summer home in Cashiers, North Carolina. Marco soon had a small Maine Coon female for a friend and soon the stray started coming to our door and by the time we retired in 1993 we had anywhere from six to ten cats sharing our home. But it wasn’t until 1995 when we moved from Clearwater, Florida to Cashiers, North Carolina and found that that town and all the other towns around us had a serious problem with stray and abandoned cats and we began helping to save as many of them as we could and any other plans we had for our retirement were gone with the wind and we spent all of our years of retirement operating a no-kill shelter and adoption center and we worked harder than I did a college professor and Kay as a school social worker harder than we had ever worked before. When you operate a cat shelter you don’t work nine to five, you work seven-twenty-four- three sixty-five because cats work those same hours and they may need assistance at any time of the day or night. This book tells the story of our life since we though we retired in 1993. All the stories are true, I wrote the poems and put together the facts about cats and how they became pets and companions that enriched our lives. The idea for a cat museum had been in our minds since we learned that there were none in America and we began buying items for a museum. But it wasn’t until 2017 that we were able to open a small cat museum in one room of a local antique mall and we learned that cat people did, indeed, want to visit a cat museum and people from all over the world have come to visit. I hope I live forever, but my wife died at age 87 so it is unlikely I will live forever and when I do I hope all the people who love cats will come together and help the museum live on after me with donations to the cause. Information of how you can help can be found on the last few pages on this book. Please buy a copy, learn more about your cats and help the museum to live on into the future to educate and entertain cat lovers in the near and far future.

The Mystery of the Egyptian Mummified Kittens
Author: Dr. Harold Walter Sims Jr.
Publisher: Fulton Books, Inc.
ISBN: 1637100299
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 165
Book Description
A Story of a Feline Whistleblower in 33 BC Egypt The Mystery of the Egyptian Mummified Kittens spins a cat tale that takes place in ancient Egypt. Hebony, the protagonist, is a cat that is going on a mission that will take him to places to do things that no other cat has ever done before. Chosen by goddesses and trained from birth by his mother and siblings at the age of four months, he begins an odyssey that, if successful, will save the lives of kittens that might be sacrificed and made into little cat mummies to be sold to people who wish to gain favor with the cat goddess Bastet. But his training to get him into shape for such a mission is augmented by words from his mother who is very concerned about the destruction the people have done and are still doing to a land that all forms of life depend on for their survival. So at times, besides keeping on course with his primary mission, Hebony learns more about the people, their self-destructive natures, their love for war and competition, and their total disregard for any other inhabitants they must share the little land that is known. Follow Hebony as he climbs sandy dunes; trespasses on the land of the priests; jumps into fast-moving chariots; goes to the fair city of Alexandra and finds his first love; attends a chariot race and meets Grosso, a cat who becomes his mentor and foster father. And when he thinks his mission is over, he learns more about the mystery from a retired Egyptian priest who lives in an old fisherman's cabin deep in the woods. When he finally returns home to report his findings, he is arrested and returned to Alexandria where he is and tried by a kangaroo court, convicted of treason, and sentenced to death by mummification. But with a little help from his friends and a nest full of mice, he escapes and lives to tell his tale. Hebony is no ordinary cat. But this story isn't just about a brave little kitten. It is a story that will motivate readers to follow Hebony's example and live their life as he did with a purpose and the determination to reach their goals and make the world a better place than they'd found it. It's something we all need to do.

Cat Fanciers' Almanac
That's Enough, Folks
Author: Henry T. Sampson
Publisher: Rlpg/Galleys
ISBN:
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
An authoritative and valuable resource for students and scholars of film animation and African-American history, film buffs, and casual readers. It is the first and only book to detail the history of black images in animated cartoons. Using advertisements, quotes from producers, newspaper reviews, and other sources, Sampson traces stereotypical black images through their transition from the first newspaper comic strips in the late 1890s, to their inclusion in the first silent theatrical cartoons, through the peak of their popularity in 1930s musical cartoons, to their gradual decline in the 1960s. He provides detailed storylines with dialogue, revealing the extensive use of negative caricatures of African Americans. Sampson devotes chapters to cartoon series starring black characters; cartoons burlesquing life on the old slave plantation with "happy" slaves Uncle Tom and Topsy; depictions of the African safari that include the white hunter, his devoted servant, and bloodthirsty black cannibals; and cartoons featuring the music and the widely popular entertainment style of famous 1930s black stars including Cab Calloway, Louis Armstrong, and Fats Waller. That's Enough Folks includes many rare, previously unpublished illustrations and original animation stills and an appendix listing cartoon titles with black characters along with brief descriptions of gags in these cartoons.
