Cat shelters and rescue organizations do valuable work in rescuing cats and finding them new homes.
As much as we would like, the world is not perfect and not all cats are safe and well taken care of. Their owners may become allergic or die. They may run away or be stolen. Nature catastrophies may separate them from their families. Too many people don't neuter their cats and so litter after litter of cats are born to miserable conditions.
If you have a big heart and would want to help such cat shelters, check out these pages. You might give them a donation of funds or your time. You might even find you perfect cat friend through them.
A rescued cat is not necessarily young, but that does not mean it would not be a perfect member to your family. Often the older cats are calmer than the very young ones - and there are situations when you might appreciate that.
And if you are looking for a young kitten, most likely you will find a cat mommy with a litter in these shelters. Just remember that when the cat becomes old enough, have it spayed. You would not want to add to the problem, would you? Also a spayed cat will not wander as far from home (if you let your cat out) and is not as prone to accidents and fights.
And maybe you could consider helping the shelters in their constant need for space? You could take cats to your home until they find their permanent home. (Just be warned: you probably won't want to give the cat away once it has come to your home).
Their work should be encouraged and helped, and this is why I wish to bring out this side of the cat world also. The world may not be perfect, but every little action to help is worth doing. It's the little things that matter...

This book travels with the King Tut - Treasures of the Golden Pharaoh exhibition on his world tour of ten cities from March 2018 onwards |
Tutankhamun: In My Own Hieroglyphs tells the story, for older children, of the life and afterlife of the famous young pharaoh in his own words. Tutankhamun tells us about the trouble he got into as a child in Akhenaten's palace in the new city of Akhetaten, and how he became a boy pharaoh. As we learn, his life changed a lot when he died as a teenager, and long years of boredom started in his tomb with only his pet monkey Fingers and his treasure for company. He did meet some of the Egyptian gods, of course, and had fun scaring off tomb robbers, but it was mostly rather dull. Then one day, some new and strange people, including a Mr. Howard Carter, arrived and began to take all the treasures out of his royal tomb. Fortunately, through the eyes of his beautiful golden mask, Tutankhamun, could have fun again traveling around the world |
