We just finished setting up the Band of Cats page on facebook. With almost 700 million people we figured there must be a few Cat lovers on the site that would ‘Like’ our page, enjoy our pictures and find our blog helpful, plus the more cats the better.

Band of Cats on Twitter

In the age of social media we’ve just added a social tool to the site called Friend Connect. We though it would be a great way to connect with the hundreds of people who visit the Band of Cats each day.

There are a few other tools that we’ll add soon that allow you to make comments and share them with others. We’ll have fun with what we have so far and continue to grow from there!

The Animal Consciousness Foundation says China wants to kill cats to look good for the Olympics. Animal welfare groups are protesting the animal death camps for cats on the edge of the city in Beijing. Cats are being left to die in one of the most inhuman acts I’ve ever heard of. People are killing cats in the street from fear of a government campaign warning of the diseases cats carry. Cat are being hauled off in cages to meat markets.

How can something like this be happening in our day and age? Hearing about all those poor cats being killed in such inhumane ways is unbelievably unsettling. These cats have just as much right to live as any other creature on this planet. These disgusting acts are incomprehensible! This has to stop. Voice your outrage.

You can find out what you can do in this article from the Animal Consciousness Foundation.

This article about the Beijing death camps for cats has more information and shows the grim reality of the situation.

Stay tuned this fall for The Band of Cats TV show! It’s the most exciting thing that has ever happened to us!!

We weren’t allowed to say anything until now just incase the proposal was rejected. But we got the green light and then some. Everyone who saw the pilot said it was nice to see a new and fresh direction for television programming.

We’ve been working together with a production company to produce a pilot for the show. The general idea was a show about the adventures and interactions between cats and their owners in a multiple cat home.  It turned out better than we thought and certainly played an important part in getting the attention of two major networks. Of course it also helped having an uncle in the business.

We can’t mention the production company or the networks involved since it’s still too early. We may be able to put the pilot online here soon, but we don’t want to jepordise anything, so we’re only telling everyone about the show for now.

I just hope Spooky, Dax, Jasmine and Jade don’t get anymore ‘big headed’ over this. At least not anymore then they already are. 😉

Stay-tuned for more news coming soon! Same Cat time. Same Cat Channel!

April Fools!
This would have been great if were true. It was fun while it lasted. I guess its back to reruns of Top Cat until fame does decide to come our way.

Let us know about your Cat April Fool’s jokes in the comments!
