THE AMAZING ACRO-CATS CELEBRATE THEIR MEOWY CHRISTMAS SHOW!
Saturday, December 12 & Sunday, December 13, 2009
doors open at 11am until 5pm with shows at 12pm and 3pm both days.

The Amazing Acro-Cats will be celebrating Christmas (or Catmas) by jumping through wreaths, rolling an ornament, pushing a sleigh and performing an array of other seasonal tricks.

There will also be a special appearance by The Rock-Cats playing seasonal carol selections such as A Cat in a Manger, Catnip Roasting on an Open Fire and God Rest Ye Merry Kittens.

These special performances have a holiday twist on what has already proven to be a fun-filled and one-of-a-kind show for audiences and cat lovers of all ages.

Watch these not so ordinary Santas Kittens disprove the notion that cats cant be trained, as they perform a variety of Christmas themed tricks.

These festive felines all live with Ms. Martin, owner of Amazing Animals by Samantha.

The little Kat Kringles spend their days playing and training in rooms converted from a humans habitat into a cat playground of props, perches and platforms.

Most of the Acro-Cat Performers are former shelter kitties Samantha has adopted and clicker trained.

PLEASE COME OUT TO HELP THESE KITTIES FIND HOMES FOR THE HOLIDAYS!

A show that doesn’t fit into any other cat-egory…The Midwest’s only trained domestic cat show!

Our fantastic felines will amuse and amaze your guests as they ride skateboards, ring bells, roll barrels, walk the high wire, climb ropes, push a shopping cart, jump through hoops, and even run a cat-size agility course.

To arrange for an appearance of Samantha’s Amazing AcroCats and The RockCats or for more information, please call 773-391-3357 or email us at contact@amazinganimals.biz.

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

http://www.purina.com http://www.kittenchow.com Bringing a new kitten home can be stressful for your existing pets as well as for your new kitten. With proper introductions, you can get your kitten and existing pets off on the right foot.

Hi! Im veterinarian and Purina Cat Chow Mentor Doctor Karen Sueda. Bringing a kitten home is a fantastic adventure for everyone, but it can be a little stressful on existing pets and your new kitten. With careful, controlled introductions, we can get your kitten and your existing pets off on the right foot. If you already have an existing cat or dog, theyll probably exhibit a combination of curiosity and defensiveness toward the new kitten. Dont worry. This is a normal reaction to the strange new playmate youve just brought home. At first, make your introductions through a closed door. Sounds funny, but theyre getting to know each other through smell and sound. This helps your new kitten to adjust without becoming overwhelmed, and helps the other pets begin to process theres a new addition. Once theyve had a little time to sniff each other out, you can begin to make the introductions carefully and with supervision. Have a few kibbles on hand to reinforce that this relationship is a good thing. It may help to keep your dog on leash and have another person present to assist you with the introduction. Ask your dog to sit, lie down, or stay to keep her attention focused on you rather than the new kitten. This will allow her to explore while getting used to the sight of your canine companion. Provide your kitten with a private area away from your dog so she feels safe. This may be a separate room or cat tree. I discuss introducing kittens to resident cats in another video, but to reiterate: make the introduction slowly, use treats and play to reward calm interaction and provide multiple litterboxes, food, and water dishes to reduce competition. And regardless of whether you are introducing your kitten to a dog or cat, dont leave them together unattended until you are certain they can tolerate each other. Thanks for watching! And remember that giving your kitten lots of love and affection will help build the foundation for your happy, healthy life together.

Intense Kitten Combat Coordination Training Ftw!™

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

Edgar, the Fiend, undertaking a brutal paw-eye-coordination training session Ftw!™ {Kitten playing with a 1″ (inch), rolled-up piece of toilet paper which is attached to a clear piece of boondoggle that was tied to the rafters of the second bunk looming above.}

My favorite part is 0:40- 1:00. Sometime after that he gets bored and diverts his attention elsewhere.
