Celebrity and Society Moms Who Love Their Cats

Happy International Cat Day!

Being a furparent imparts a lot of lessons but even more so, being a cat mom. Unlike dogs whose moods are a lot more obvious, cats are quite subtle in their expressions. The way they curl up near us, purr on us when they know you’re feeling bad, sit on our keyboards when we’re working — they are the kings and queens of the house and International Cat Day commemorates those memories.
