National Hug Your Cat Day

On June 4th, the purr-fect opportunity presents itself for some snuggle time as National Hug Your Cat Day rolls around each year. Hugging may not be in the plans, depending on your feline critter's nature. However, like most animals, touch is a vital component of communication, and the same goes for the claw-ful kind.

Leaving aside the fact that you are fur-tunate enough to have a feline friend, any attention they give you could be a blessing. Some people never leave your side and cuddle often. Others never leave your side and cuddle often. Well, most cats have purr-sonality in spades, of course..

If your feline friend becomes hiss-terical as you try to hug him, you may have to settle for a boop. It's unfurr-tunate, but it is an option. Many that don't have any feline companionship may have to litter-only visit a neighbor or volunteer at a local shelter. Those paw-some critters need some love, too.

How to celebrate hugging your cat on a sunny day

You can't believe in Love on your furr-tunate kitty. If you're at it, make it a purr-manent part of your daily routine. Rather than buying one, adopt instead of buying one if you're considering getting a cat. Use #HugYourCatDay on social media to post some pawsome kitties with cat-ittude.
