The Maneki Neko (招き猫, literally "Beckoning Cat") or Lucky CatA common Japanese sculpture, often made of porcelain or ceramic, which is believed to bring good luck to the owner. The sculpture depicts a cat (traditionally a Japanese Bobtail) beckoning with an upright paw, and is usually displayed—many times at the entrance—in shops, restaurants, pachinko parlors, and other businesses. |

Kitties Rescued!
Jasper (aka LittleKit)
Jasper's story never fails to make me angry. Ladygyrl was calling the kittens in to dinner when we heard a forlorn "meow". She called again, and was answered by the same sad meow. We tracked the sound to a Maine Coon apparently abandoned in a nearby field. The matted grass revealed that the poor animal had been waiting patiently for it's owners to return. We checked with neighbors to find an owner. Finally we took him in, fed and watered him. He has adjusted well to the tabbitarium.
There are hundreds of
thousands of cats like Lennox. Homeless, hungry, injured and prey
for larger or more vicious animals. Won't you please help us assist
more cats to find a loving home?
Will you please donate to our rescue fund, which will enable us to assist more cats?
