Our Favorite Father’s Day Cat Men

These are my favorite cat men. Who are yours?

Happy Father’s Day (a little early) to cat dads everywhere. Find your Cat Dad style and our free cards here.

I’m lucky my husband Joe is cat man. You might even say a crazy cat man. He’s been crazy about cats forever, not by wearing a t-shirt that says “Cat Man”but by doing the heavy lifting. That means lugging cat food and litter, mixing supplement concoctions into cat food, keep the pantry stocked with treats, cleaning cat fountain filters, cleaning the litter, building and fixing cat things and catering to our cats’ every whim 24/7.

How dedicated a cat man is he? His favorite mask these days has a cat on it. I mean I don’t even wear a cat mask but Joe loves it.

Joe has two adult children but loves our cats equally (sometimes more).

The original cat dad was my dad, Walter who loved cats more than ever in his senior years. There is no doubt my love of cats and all animals stems from my family. It influenced my choice of boyfriends. Anyone who didn’t like cats didn’t get far.

This photo was taken the year he died in 1995. Even this pic has a cat in it.  Das’s birthday was June 15th which would fall close to Father’s Day for a double celebration.  I like to think he’s petting a big furry cat or two in heaven.

Happy Father’s Day and remember your fur kids are children too!

Love and purrs,

Layla

  5. The Hubby is an excellent cat dad; he does all of the cat food bowl washing, and loves to supply them all with catnip! When I lay in bed, been lazy on weekend mornings, I can hear The Hubby chatting up Da Boyz, and it’s hilarious.

  9. That is a great mask! Happy Father’s Day to Joe.
    Re your comment on my last post:
    Kitty Yumbum was not Eric and Flynn’s mum. She was pining when the last of our fur family of 10 had gone to the Bridge. We were going to get an older rescue cat for company for her but then heard that tiny Eric and Flynn were in danger from a marauding tom cat, so we got them instead and very glad we did.

  10. You are fortunate to have such a helpful husband to help with the fur children. Was that first picture of Joe and Merlin? Your dad will enjoy the company of all your felines and any of his waiting for him at the bridge..what a better reunion could one dad want when he leaves this Earth and enters another to be with his cats again.Bless all of them this Fathers Day.
    I would love to have a cat mask like his,even though I can’t make out the message.

    1. Thanks Elaine, I really am lucky. He does most of the kitty work. I think you’re referring to the pic in the subscriber newsletter? That’s Joe and Merlin. At the top of this post is a recent photo of Joe with Odin. The mask says join the revolution. It’s a gift from Catalyst Cat Litter and not for sale.
