Mom is Red,

I Marvelous am Blue! 

In Honor of the one and only Derby, The first Tock-Tober was to celebrate Derby’s Birthday Oct 20, and was announced in 2009. 

When Derby flew over the rainbow Ducky took over the job and although he too is no longer with us his Tock-Tober spirit lives on with Dobby!

October 16, National Feral Cat Day

Global Cat Day is on October 16 annually. National Feral Cat Day, as a critical part of Global Cat Day, falls on the same date. Both were created by Alley Cat Allies and are observed by millions of people every year.

Global Cat Day is a day to embrace the global truth that Cats Are Community. This powerful statement is recognition that cats have lived alongside us for thousands of years, have a rightful place in our communities, and are beings with inherent value who deserve to be protected.

Cats are our family, our friends, and our neighbors, whether they are community cats who live outdoors among us or companion cats who live indoors with us. Our unique relationships with them span thousands of years and cross every border.

Every neighborhood, village, town, city, and country worldwide must have policies and programs that protect cats as community members. That is the thought leadership and change Global Cat Day is all about.
