My name is Laurie Buckley and I am the admin of For Your Cat. Although I am a lover of all animals, cats hold an extra place within my heart. And so I dedicate this site to all cats, to their health and happiness and to their ‘people’.

Hi Laurie,
I have just been on both your blogs and since you write about all things cats,I thought you might be interested in the RSPCA’s ‘Give Animals a Voice’ campaign that I am currently working on that focuses on pet obesity.
RPSCA have teamed up with the maker of ‘Simon’s Cat’ and created a video called ‘Fed up’. This video illustrates food-begging behaviour that is typical to dogs (and cats!) and the issue of pet obesity. The video, which launched yesterday, has already been viewed over 143, 000 times!
The video can be watched at http://www.giveanimalsavoice.org.uk. There is also an embeddable link available on the site if you wished to put it on your blog. Though this animation has a light side to it, it still carries a very serious message, and we are really keen for this to be highlighted.
Pet obesity is a growing concern, and RSPCA want to raise awareness and get people to start thinking and talking about this issue. Especially during Christmas, is giving your pets treats under the dining table a nice or cruel thing to do? Do we actually know when our pets are overweight? And what do we do to combat this problem?
RSPCA’s resident celebrity Vet, Joe Inglis is available to answer any questions that you or your readers may have. Please let me know if you would like some information; we have loads of images, case studies, vox pops and even interview opportunities with Jo Inglis.
I hope this is of interest to you and I look forward to hearing back from you.
All the best,
Jayne
