Diva. 💅 Postcard from my collection, mailed 1916.

Black and white photo of a very fluffy silver tabby in a close up portrait. The cat looks like it’s posing, like it’s a professional on a modeling job.

Cats of Yore

Love that our vet has these posters framed in every exam room. Scratching is natural! There are many alternatives to declawing and no reason to do it unless it is medically necessary for the cat. 🐈‍⬛

Poster that reads Cats need to scratch and mark with their claws to:
• Stretch their body.
• Remove the worn layer of their nail.
• Maintain necessary claw motion used in hunting and climbing.
• Leave visible markers to establish their territory, especially if there is concern with other cats in the household or outdoors.
Best practices:
• Trim your cat's nails regularly.
• Provide a variety of scratchers (i.e. tall, horizontal, or angled; sisal rope, carpet, cardboard, or wood).
• Place scratchers near your cat's sleeping area; in front of their preferred, yet undesirable, scratching object (e.g. corner of couch).
• Ensure ample cat environmental enrichment and resources (i.e. litter boxes, sleeping areas, food & water bowls, and perches all in multiple locations).
• Do not use your fingers or toes, or the wiggling of hands or feet as a toy for play. This form of play can lead to biting or scratching, and as a cat grows they will accept it as an appropriate form of play. Instead, play can be stimulated with the use of interactive toys that mimic prey, such as a toy mouse that is pulled across a floor or feathers on a wand that is waved through the air.
Important to keep in mind:
• If your cat continues to scratch undesired objects, it may be due to stress, anxiety, attention seeking, or feeling unsafe in their environment.
• Look for any problems between other cats or household members, which might make your cat feel anxious, threatened, or territorial. Signs of conflict are subtle.
If your cats never groom one another, sleep or play together, intercat conflict is likely.
• Reward your cat's positive scratching immediately.
• Please speak with a veterinarian or behaviorist for individualized advice.

The American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP) opposes elective declawing (onychectomy) of cats.
Declawing entalls the amputation of a cat's third phalanx (P3), or third toe bone.

This is from a 1950s coloring book I have about the three little kittens who lost their mittens. I love the addition of this fabulous Auntie Katie character. There was no author or artist cited in the book!

A simple illustration of bold black lines on white paper of a longhaired cat on a fancy tasseled pillow, wearing a beaded bracelet on one foreleg, a necklace with heart pendant, and ferronnière (like a necklace that is draped across the forehead). Text at the bottom reads “The Three Little Kittens’ Auntie Katie”.

Watercolor painting of a shorthaired black cat sleeping peacefully, tucked under a light orange blanket. Very simple yet expressive ink wash style painting.
