The aim is to help educate people
e.g. potential cat owners and new
kitten owners that don’t know much
about cats, and those that would
love to learn more about cats, by
sharing cat stories, medical advice
and tips from vets, and also to share
cat show news and results with cat
show enthusiasts.
Readers are encouraged to submit
stories about their cats, photographs
and letters and questions are
welcome at any time.
Each issue will feature a specific
breed of cat and Happy Ending
stories.
Welcome to the very first
issue of Kittycat Magazine.
Cats ... I can speak about cats all
day long! My cat friends can too!
Some call me the Crazy Cat Lady and
they probably wouldn’t be wrong.
I’m owned by gorgeous Balinese
cats, I’ve been a cat sitter for
the last 7 years and enjoy cat
photography. My cats are my
children, they are part of my family,
I love them to bits and will do
anything and everything I can to
make sure they are healthy, happy
and safe. When Retha Scholtz,
Founder of Kittycat, approached me
about launching an online magazine
for Kittycat, it seemed like the
perfectly natural thing to do.
Kittycat Magazine is a bi-monthly
online magazine for like minded
people that are passionate about
cats. All cats!
Our first issue features the beautiful
Balinese. There are lots of tips for
new owners adding a kitten to the
family as well as warnings about
kitten scams that are doing the
rounds at the moment.
