Would you believe that…<br />

1. ... it is important to include fat in your cat’s diet? Cats are unable to make the nutrient<br />

on their own, unlike dogs or humans.<br />

2. …cats are America’s preferred choice for pets , with 88 millions living in the<br />

home compared to 74 million dogs? That is a lot of meowing!<br />

3. … there are more than 70 breeds for cats, meaning there’s more than tabby, black, and<br />

Siamese cats?<br />

4. … cats cannot taste sweetness? Scientific American<br />

Website stated due to the lack of the 247 basic pairs of the amino acid that make up<br />

the DNA of the Tas 1r2 gene (protein), cats cannot taste sweetness the same way humans<br />

do.<br />

5. …recent study found that if you neuter your male cat, you<br />

would increase his life by up to<br />

62%?<br />

6. … cats chase their prey with a level head? Humans and dogs bob their heads<br />

up and down.<br />

7. … cats rub against people and it’s not just because of affection? This is their way<br />

of marking their territory, made possible by their scent glands all over their face and<br />

on their paws and tail.<br />

8. … cats hate water because their fur doesn’t insulate well with water? Best not to give<br />

them a<br />

bath as it will be a challenge.<br />

9. … cats’ jaws do not work the same way as a human jaw does? Because their jaws do<br />

not move<br />

sideways, they cannot eat a large food item<br />

.<br />

10. … cats are sensitive to vibration? They can detect an earthquake 10 to<br />

15 minutes before<br />

humans can. This is very useful if you live in earthquake-prone areas.<br />

Why People Fear Black<br />

Cats<br />

The CFA (Cat Fancier's Association) recognizes<br />

22 cat breeds that can have solid black coats.<br />

One of the most famous is the Bombay Breed,<br />

which is a solid black coat, golden eyes<br />

(yellow irises).<br />

In general, cats have weak color vision. They<br />

do compensate it with an acute sense of<br />

smell. Their claws help their balance,<br />

therefore; it is not recommended to declaw<br />

them.<br />

Due to their agility, movement, and flexibility<br />

cats have earned the phrase of having nine<br />

lives. Fishermen believe having a black cat<br />

will ensure a safe passage home.<br />

It is said. "If you see a black cat walking your<br />

way, good luck will come to you."<br />

Here is how it plays out:<br />

Europe<br />

Black cats are good luck.<br />

Fishermen use them for safe passage.<br />

Women used them for protection.<br />

<strong>October</strong> 27th celebrates "Cat Day" by the Cat's<br />

Protection in<br />

the United Kingdom of Great Britain and<br />

Norther Ireland.<br />

United States<br />

Black cats are bad luck.<br />

Black cats are associated with witchcraft.<br />

Many believe seeing a black cat evil will surely<br />

come your way.<br />

The good news is, only 10% of the US.<br />

population believe black cats are evil, versus<br />

the 90% who believes they are lucky charms.<br />

Just the same, some shelters will suspend or<br />

limit the adoptions of black cats around<br />

Halloween for the fear the cats will be<br />

tortured or used as a "living decoration for<br />

their display".<br />

In The News...................<br />

Harambe The Gorilla<br />

On May 31st, <strong>2016</strong>, Cincinnati Zoo Officials had to make the<br />

hardest decision to kill their beloved 17 years old Harambe The<br />

Gorilla, in order to save a young, frighten 4-year-old. Who had<br />

fallen mysteriously from the spectator fence and landed in the<br />

gorilla's natural habitat.<br />

Tons of videos have captured the events to that gruesome day.<br />

Millions of people have spoken in reference to the event that<br />

leads to Harambe's death. Many feel it was a hasty decision,and<br />

his death was unjustified.<br />

Other feel it was the right call, but the Mother needed to be<br />

charged with negligence on her part. Instead, law enforcement<br />

officials exonerated her. Nevertheless, an endangered species<br />

was sacrificed to save the life of a child. An animal was killed to<br />

save a human. In the end, it was a terrible accident,and a parent's<br />

worst nightmare... a tragedy that will be engraved in everyone's<br />

life for years to come.<br />

A Florida Company has reached a<br />

milestone in developing the first<br />

synthetic dog.<br />

This revolutionary concept will help<br />

veterinarian's practice more<br />

effectively their trade instead of the<br />

traditional gruesome method of<br />

using live dogs that were scheduled<br />

to be euthanized.<br />

Synthetic Dog Helping Veterinarian<br />

Yulin Dog Festival<br />

The Yulin Dog Meat Festival is a tradition<br />

that has been going on for 400 hundred<br />

years. In the 90’s, our culture became<br />

aware of this horrendous festival, all in<br />

thanks to the Internet.<br />

Again in June the festival will begin once<br />

more. It is held in the providence of Yulin,<br />

China and fourteen other towns in Asia.<br />

Thousands of dogs and cats, will suffer the<br />

pain of being beaten, mutilated, skined<br />

alive, and cooked alive(with the pretense;<br />

the meat will be more tender...) An<br />

horrendously display of brutality.<br />

Dogs and cats will be taken from homes<br />

and villages or have been simply<br />

harvesting for this yearly event.<br />

WHO IS MAX?<br />

by Ana Rui<br />

Hello Readers,<br />

Welcome to <strong>Max</strong> <strong>And</strong> <strong>Friends</strong>-The Magazine.<br />

Since our introduction of <strong>Max</strong> <strong>And</strong> <strong>Friends</strong> in<br />

September <strong>2016</strong>, we have received tons of letters<br />

asking;<br />

Who is <strong>Max</strong>?<br />

How old is he?<br />

What is his breed?<br />

How did he get selected to be our star model?<br />

Does he has a girlfriend?<br />

What is his favorite color?<br />

Well, you get the picture........<br />

So instead of answering all the letters individually,<br />

we decided to do a bio for <strong>Max</strong>.<br />

<strong>Max</strong>'s Bio<br />

<strong>Max</strong> is an American Boxer. He is 24 month old.<br />

Born on May 12, making him a Taurus. He<br />

loves car rides, enjoys a good crispy french<br />

fries. He loves to lounge in the couch and play<br />

with his favorite toys. One of his favorite toys<br />

is a piece of wood. (see picture)<br />

likes.<br />

Unfortunately, <strong>Max</strong> at the present moment is<br />

single. So ladies, if you are interested, he<br />

welcomes you to drop him an email. If you like,<br />

he will send you an autographed picture,<br />

thanking you for purchasing his magazine.<br />

(All our proceed, will be donate but not limited<br />

to these organizations - PETA, World Life Fund,<br />

ASPCA, etc.)<br />

If you have an organization and would like for<br />

us to check it out, please email us with the<br />

name.<br />

<strong>Max</strong> got elected to be our star model by default.<br />

<strong>Max</strong> is sort of a celebrity at his youngest (human)<br />

sister's Christian School. We felt this would be a<br />

perfect opportunity to help other animals that are<br />

not as fortunate as <strong>Max</strong>.<br />

The idea was presented, and we all came on board.<br />

So there you have it.<br />

Thank you, and welcome again to <strong>Max</strong> <strong>And</strong><br />

<strong>Friends</strong>.<br />

His favorite color, as far as can tell is purple.<br />

Why, we do not know, but that is the color he
