The Community Cat Chronicles 2: New kittens on the block by Lachlan Madsen,Eleanor Nilsson Pdf
Theodora Tuxedo wasn’t the only feline to arrive and stay with Eugene’s family at Block 223. Firstborn, a son Satu (also a tuxedo but in white mess dress), would plop out with a mewl into Stepdad’s pyjama pants one early Sunday morning, with tortoiseshell Dua and calico Tiga to follow. There’s a lot to learn if you’re a kitten: how to use your whiskers, how to know when a rat is a rat (and when it isn’t) and how to accept the tail you’ve been born with. Loving her life now as an indoor cat, shunning her past life as a stray, Theodora can’t understand the kittens’ eagerness to venture back “outdoors” into the community. Along with Theodora’s (and Zigzag’s) unexpected offspring, The Community Cat Chronicles 2 – New Kittens on the Block delightfully shares imagined stories of real residents, both two legged and four, around the housing estates of Avenue 1.
The Community Cat Chronicles 3 by Lachlan J. Madsen,Eleanor Nilsson Pdf
Satu, Dua and Tiga have spent their entire kittenhood together on Avenue 1 but their mother, Theodora Tuxedo, toughened from an early life on the streets, is anxious for them to each find their own way in the world, worried they’ve become too pampered as ‘house’ cats. The siblings have become part of the community and can’t understand the hurry (or need) to leave, since they’ve made dear friends with neighbourhood felines and various other species. As they quickly approach the time they become officially ‘cats’ and no longer kittens, their human family also worry the chances of finding them forever homes will diminish. Based on genuine experiences and observations of real cats and "two leggeds", The Community Cat Chronicles 3 are the continuing stories of Avenue 1.
This is a heartwarming story told by Abby, a veteran stray cat who insists "We are not strays, we are community cats Just as humans are citizens of their countries, we are citizens of the communities we live in "It brings to life the many stray cats who live in almost every community giving each cat featured in this book a face, a heart, feelings, thoughts and the same fears and happiness of the humans who can make their lives a blessing or a curse.Abby, the macho yellow male cat walks us through his very colorful adventures and experiences as he and his siblings and friends live each day to the fullest of their nine lives, never knowing whether they will be alive at the end of the day There is never a dull moment and some harrowing matching of wits with those who hate their very existence and believe that community cats should neither be seen nor heard The lead star of this witty community cat drama is Abby, strong, arrogant and adventurous, he is the boss and what he says goes Then there is Choc, his brother, good natured, sanguine and a perfect gentleman who is wise and calm beyond his cat years It has even been said that a woman would choose Abby for a lover and Choc for a solid dependable husband There is Calico, Abby's friend and "crush," pretty, precocious with a temper to match and her direct antithesis, Sister, a surly, snarling aging matriarch of the neighboring cluster of community cats whom Abby calls "the ugliest and meanest feline that ever existed." Each cat is a vibrant character of its own that you will mostly love as they share their lives with you. There is this rhetoric that every creature is created for a purpose so what on earth are community cats created for? Perhaps to bring out the compassion and better qualities in humans manifested here in the much loved "feeders" who feed and care for them, giving of their time and money to make the lives of these less fortunate creatures of God, tolerable The story ends with this haunting rhetoric, "life will go on till our lease on earth runs out. I think I still have many good years left and I absolutely refuse to think what old age and dying on the streets might be like. I have no thoughts about the future because living life to the fullest this week is more important than next week "
It all started when a rat ran over her husband's foot and author, Dr. Anne E. Beall, began a journey into the world of feral cats. The Bealls had experienced rat problems for a long time. Then, a neighbor told them about a program called Cats at Work where one could get feral cats that would take care of the rat problem. In Community Cats, she tells how she and her husband entered the world of feral cats when they signed up for the Chicago Cats at Work program with Tree House Humane Society. Tree House practices TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return), and they trapped, neutered, and relocated a feral cat colony to Beall's home. She narrates what she learned about the unique world of feral cats and about the people who are involved with feral cats and who advocate for them. Community Cats shares the story of what initially began as a creative solution to a rat problem and became a journey that led her to reach out to others in the feral-cat world. Beall interviewed other colony caretakers and leaders in the TNR movement and learned about how feral cats live, how they relate to one another, and how they relate to their caretakers. She also conducted survey research on American's attitudes toward stray cats, TNR programs, and spaying/neutering. Beall learned that feral cat programs have a huge impact on the caretakers of the colonies, on the neighbors, on the community, and on the cats themselves and details those findings in Community Cats.

A Pity Party Is Still a Party by Chelsea Harvey Garner Pdf
Most of us try to avoid feeling sad, but in this candid, comical, and deeply-felt book, therapist Chelsea Harvey Garner doesn’t just argue that the future will be brighter if we learn to enjoy the unenjoyable and support each other when the vibes aren’t so good, she also shows us how. What if all the advice we’ve received about “looking on the bright side” is wrong? What if sadness is actually the key to happiness, and can even be . . . fun? Garner is here to make that case. In this feel-good guide to feeling bad, she claims it’s not enough for us to tolerate hard feelings. We need to embrace them. We need to let them show by crying with others. Often. In public. Playful, at times irreverent, but always sincere, Garner is the grown-up Miss Frizzle for the therapy generation. She believes that if we want to build a world where mental health is the norm, we have to lean into connection and count on each other, even—and perhaps especially—at our worst. Through anecdotes about her own hardships and insights gained in her clinical practice, Garner illuminates the power (and embarrassment) of opening up. Featuring solo exercises, group activities, and journal prompts alongside personal essays, she invites us to see emotions in a new light and engage with them in a healthier way. A Pity Party is Still a Party helps us find the silver lining, but only after we’ve played in the rain.
