Cairo's Scratching Post

By Cairo Nov 14th 2011

Hey pet people! It's your new favorite cat, Cairo. You may recognize me as that beautiful feline lounging about PawNation. My whiskered face may also be familiar, because I have been in the spotlight for quite a few cat years, but a real lady never divulges her age.

I am a Los Angeles kitty with an exquisite taste for the high life and the exotic look of an Egyptian Mau. It takes a lot to keep up both, but somehow I've managed. Throughout the years, I have hob-knobbed with Hollywood's most famous animals and actors. Not to brag, but I co-starred in a certain Sharon Stone film and Keyboard Cat played my last Halloween party -- he came dressed as Liberace. What a hoot.

Anywho, enough about me (well, there can't really ever be enough...) and more about my lovely new scratching pad, PawNation. I am just delighted to get to know all of my guests as you paw about the site. But please be careful. I don't want to get the place re-feng-shuied.

If you are looking for some places to prowl, may I recommend the Cats Hub? It is home to everything you need to know about us felines and plenty of pictures and videos that are just plain furry fun. My good friend Matilda, The Algonquin Hotel Cat, has a column about her luxurious life there as well. Please make sure to drop by and say "Ciao" for me.

Is a good purr what you want? Then you have to visit the Cute & Funny Hub to find all kinds of content that will get your tails twitching. I mean how can you turn down cats with mustaches? I know they're my weakness. Me-Ow. One final recommendation: give your own critters some love and enter them into the "Who's Cutest?" game. I am not allowed to enter due to certain -- ahem -- biases, but it is a simply marvelous way to show off your Humphrey Bocats and Kitty Gabors.

And don't worry my dears, this will not be the last time you'll be hearing from me. I will always be around on Twitter, Facebook and this column to give you a head butt in the right direction. But now I must take a break, my paws are cramping and my masseuse is due any second.

Mewfully yours,

Cairo
