Thanks for the chance. This is just the cutest cat coloring book series. For some reason, I am unable to confirm my entry by the link sent to me via email.

What harms any one of us, harms all of us. Not surprisingly, this also applies with respect to the fact that what can save any one of us is also the route to saving all of us. Cats and all animals deserve our love, appreciation and respect as treasured allies in our mutual goal of living our best lives together in health and happiness.

Re: Stray Cats Protected Under Felony Animal Cruelty Law

CJ — Wed, 25 Feb 2026 15:35:21 -0000

It is refreshing to see admirable legal decisions being made by judges supporting ethical, just, humane treatment of the most vulnerable among us. May this case set an invaluable precedent that is emulated far and wide. Civilized societies will be strengthened when this happens. Until then, our communities are progressively weakened when cruelty is allowed to go unchallenged and perpetrators are not subject to appropriate accountability.

I think all states should have this law. Being a feeder to several stray cats, it breaks my heart when I hear of someone abusing a stray animal.

Re: Conservation by Bullet: South Africa’s Trophy Hunting

Maria Appleby — Mon, 09 Feb 2026 19:05:46 -0000

Thank you for this article. While I feel surprise, sadness, and anger-------and I suspect many others do as well--------knowing and sharing the truth is important, no matter how painful. I shared your blog, and also the article from Daily Maverick. They did superb work on this. So many species of living creatures, big and small, land and sea, are critically endangered. Many of those could quickly disappear forever without immediate intervention. It's not just trophy hunters, it's also apathy born of disconnection, anxiety, and a feeling of powerlessness, that contribute to this terrible situation. Jane Goodall often spoke about this, stating that the greatest danger to our future is not just apathy, but the combination of apathy, indifference, and a lack of understanding. Educating others, like you do, is part of the solution and I appreciate your work.

This is heartbreaking no matter what their reasons are. No life should be taken like this.

How humans treat animals speaks volumes about their character. The truth about what is going on matters. Thank you for shining a light on the disinformation being used in an attempt to falsely legitimize what otherwise would be subject to widespread condemnation and calls for accountability. Being a Voice for the most vulnerable among us is the first step toward reaching the tipping point needed to successfully demand the changes required before it is too late. By our actions, humans have the power to prevent or cause the extinction of other species. It is our choice to prioritize and collectively act on behalf of what we value, appreciate and hold most dear.

Re: African Lions Losing Ground

Wildlife does not pose any threat to humans. In fact, they wish to have nothing to do with us. They are naturally elusive and their presence serves the best interests of our environment and balances our ecosystems to the betterment of all life forms. It is crucial that humans appreciate this truth and change our behaviors before it is too late. We are the ones whose destructive activities are rapidly destroying this planet and depleting so many of nature's invaluable resources that are needed to sustain it. Biodiversity is essential. The truth is balance requires fewer humans and a resurgence of the other species that we are threatening with extinction. I pray that happens.

This is sad. I had no idea it was happening. I hope they can change some laws so lions can be protected better.

A meow is music to my ears. I am going to google the sounds of the jaguars.

Re: Cats And Mental Health. Emotional Benefits of Cats

Maria Appleby — Mon, 05 Jan 2026 12:08:59 -0000

I would not be here if it weren't for my cats. There was a time when they were the only thing that gave me purpose, and a reason to stay alive. While I also sought appropriate care for myself, and am doing well now, my beloved cats remain an integral part of my positive mental and physical health goals. I really appreciated your blog about this. It's spot on. Thank you. 🐈🐈‍⬛🙂❤️

Animals offer an inherent bonding opportunity like no other. Recognition and appreciation of this invaluable benefit have the potential to go a long way toward improving the quality of life for all living beings who share our planet. Thank you for sharing the insights highlighted in this article. Education regarding these truths is so important, especially during these turbulent times...

Re: African Lions Have Distinct Roars

Maria Appleby — Mon, 29 Dec 2025 20:04:33 -0000

I learn so much from many of your articles. Thank you for your thorough research, and also for your writing style. You make things easy for the average reader to understand. The only thing that I knew about the roar of a lion is that a roar (especially from a fully grown adult male lion) can carry for miles. I'm amazed that because of new technology, individual lions can now be identified by how they roar. How cool is that? The more humankind can see wildlife as individual, sentient beings, deserving of respect and life...the better it will be for all of us. Thank you for today's education! 🦁❤️

If humans focus on truly listening and then take action with an understanding, caring and compassionate response, the voices of the animals provide our greatest hope for inspiring the desperately needed change that can create a brighter future for all living beings who call our planet home. If we are willing, they can lead us back to the kinder, gentler, more peaceful and supportive existence we all deserve.

Dear Joanne, I did notice I wasn’t getting Triple T emails much anymore but didn’t know why. Thank you for the update. I love everything I got from you over the years and found you to be most pleasant to work with. All the best to you, Paul and the fur babies with this new chapter of your lives! 😻 Pamella
