...According to the National survey, 80% of cats suffer
misunderstanding from humans: "Every time I try to have a serious talk with him, he simply gives me food" - this was the most common opinion among cats who took the survey...
...August 8 is International Cat Day - a day to celebrate one of
man's most common and ancient pets. They have even been worshiped as gods (we
see you, Egypt.) Well, it is not surprising, Cats are one of the coolest
beings on the planet: they are independent, inquisitive, adventurous, have an
amazing physiognomy, and the power to heal by themselves... And - cats and
plants always go together!..
...Nowadays, cats seem to be one of the pop icons in modern society - we
have about half of a billion among us. And, since 2002, thanks to the
International Fund for Animal Welfare cats have their own holiday!..

PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Month: Sonya growing indoors
Sonya, the Co-Author of our columnist Alex Butova, this year can't wait for the Spring to begin. Sonya is a

spite of her beautiful fluffy coat. Together with Alex, she grows tropical
flowers in their apartment in Riga, Latvia. The countdown to True Spring has just
begun, and Sonya promises warm weather to start by hers and Alex's birthday
on March 16.

PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Month: Moishe, the Google Intern with a Sweet Tooth
Just a few months ago we introduced our new Little Purrrson Jim II that we got as a "toy" for intellectual
Google the Cat, to cheer him up after he lost his friend Jim I... Jim II, the fluffy goofball, grew up in no time and in his turn,
requested entertainment, since Google bored him with his technical lectures... So
we got a toy for Jim-the-toy... and he turned out to be - another
mini-Google!
Moishe is very busy young individual, spending his day solving math
equations and discovering laws of physics... Google appreciates the new generation's input. Jim II is simply glued to the little guy. He follows Moishe everywhere, including boring seminars by Google. Jim loves his new little brother with all his heart!
Moishe's favorite things are - gravity experiments, reading scientific manuscripts, and eating JAM for breakfast! No toast required.

PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Abu, the Quiet Fighter
The Story of Abu, a brother of poor little Raja, is also challenging, but has a happy ending!
...Abu started out a quiet reserved little man. From the beginning you would find him in the
quarantine room snuggled under his thick blanket sleeping. Abu did not like to ask for help but was grateful when you gave it. We tried to help him use a toilet while his
leg was casted and getting into the letterbox was a challenge for him... However, he was too orthodox in his views to believe he needed help...
...Abu was the worse off of the two found kittens. Dr didn't sugar coat the
outlook. He gave him a thirty percent chance of walking again. The morning after the first medication, I woke up
like a kid on Christmas morning... Dressing quickly, I went to the kitten's room to see if there was any change... Abu was still laying down, not getting up on his
own. As I looked over his little body, I made my way to his swollen little wrist to see if there was any change...

PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: Story of Raja, Part 2
Everybody was touched by the tragic story of Raja - the kitten Kristi rescued from the tough street
challanges and gave her a chance for Life...
Today we continue this story. And although it is a sad one, there will be a
happy ending, and there will be always lessons we learn from the experience
of taking care of our loved once.
Raja taught us to never let our disabilities define what we can and can't
do. She taught us that every live creature deserves to know what love, a warm
home, and a family means. She taught us resilience, determination and
perseverance. Sometimes goodbye is not always an end, but a possible new beginning
with new lessons learned...

PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Cat of the Day: the mischievous Jim the Second
In May 2020 we celebrated 16th birthday of Jim the Founder - the Cat who established
TopTropicals. It broke our hearts when this Old and Wise Purrrson peacefully passed away
this August :(( We want to believe that he is now in Cat Paradise... but we
miss him terribly - both humans and PeopleCats. Google the Cat lost his appetite and went into a deep depression after
he lost his best buddy... To get him distracted from his separation stress,
we decided that Google needs... a Project.
Here he is. Jim the Second. About a month ago we found him in a Human
Society shelter. He was a tiny fur ball size of a palm of a hand. But he proudly
carries his Godfather's name, for a reason - he likes to EAT - just as much as
Jim the First. He eats 3 times more than Google, and he talks a lot. And of
course, he pulls everyone's tail, and kicks everything that is kickable...
The Veteran Google complains that young generation of PeopleCats nowadays
are nothing but trouble... but they've become friends anyway! Google feels
much happier now. He just took Jim Jr to his first walk outside to the lake and
showed him some fishing techniques...
Bon voyage Little Jim, you soon will master it all! As Mr Booster claims, Orange Cats Bring Happiness!

PeopleCats of TopTropicals. Story of Raja: Love at First Sight and Survivor Spirit
The story below about Little Raja is heart breaking and yet teaches us
many lessons of life. Since the first columns about Raja and her brother Abu were published in our Blog, we
have been getting many letters from gardeners-slash-cat-lovers asking
questions about those heroic kitties... what have they been through and what happened
after?.. So we asked Kristi to tell us the whole story in full. Here it is,
the Raja's lessons of Life... Part 1...
