Re: [Felvtalk] Singing to Cats
Diane Thanks for that. It might seem a bit "out there" but does strike a certain chord. Of course, I'm a northern Californian, so... But I do also feel compelled to sometimes tell the cats their own story and praise them for their accomplishments (my one cat, Miya, had a litter of kittens at the creek and didn't come in from the cold until all the kittens had found a home). I do thank my cats for their friendship...again, who knows, maybe I'm just talking to myself, but it makes me feel better and the cat certainly tolerates it! ~Bonnie - Original Message - From: "Diane Rosenfeldt" To: Sent: Thursday, December 30, 2010 3:54 PM Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Singing to Cats The listmom of my feral-cats list (she is Wiccan) feels strongly that cats love to be sung to, and to have their own special song.

Re: [Felvtalk] Singing to Cats
Same here, I sing to my feral kittens and they seem to love it. "Trapped" one in a snowstorm who was very ill and kept moving away, but fell asleep when I sang to him. When I got close, he'd wake and I'd stop, look away, start singing again when he relaxed and stoped looking at me. Finally got close enough to sing, let him nod off, scruff, drop in trap. I don't have a very good voice and could only remember Christmas songs at the time because I was so nervous for him, but it sure worked.

Lol! From me, there's "Look at That Baby Cat" (Stormy's original) and "She's a Little Boobinator"; for Will it's "Will, the Kitten Who's a Thrill." Miya Chan has a self-titled song. No song for Lucky...yet. Maybe something about "Mr. Big Stuff" or a "Stinky Bug."
