Cat Breed of the Month: The Balinese

Appearance: The Balinese, also known as a Javenese, has a semi-longhair silky coat, he also comes in several ditinctive printed colors. The Balinese is a direct member of the Siamese and is basically a long-haired version of the Siamese. It has a long, lean body and blue, almond shaped eyed with a rounded body type and a apple shaped head.

History: This beautiful cat originated in the United States. A long-haired Siamese was first registered in 1928 in the UK, but they only began to breed themin the US in the 1950s. These long-haird Siamese cats were recognized as an official breed in 1961. The breed was named the Balinese because the breeder was reminded of Balinese temple dancers whenever she saw her cats.

Traits and Temprament: The Balinese is described as demanding, affectionate, playful, and energetic, similar to his Siamese cousin.This cat has a highly inquistive nature and needs lots of feline and human company.

Grooming: Since the Balinese only has a one layer coat of fur, it doesn't need as much management and grooming as other longhaired cats. Weekly brushing is good for much cats and wouldn't hurt you Balinese, it may even help your cat, there would be less hairballs and less chance of matting.

Health Related Issues: As of yet there are no known health related issues concerning the Balinese.Like all cats, the Balinese should get regular vet check ups.

Cat School Supplies

I have been noticing a lot lately, how much cat school stuff I have. I mean there is so much of it, most people just stare at it in amazement and wonder how I got all of it. It is really easy, especially for a person with cat sensors who can detect a cat and cat related items in a 30 mile radius, to find cat stuff. Plus I get a lot of neat stuff from my friends who have cat stuff they don't know what to do with. Even my biology teacher gives me cat stuff ( or at least plans on once she finds it). Whenever my friends see a cat or something cat related they always tell me about and say that the thought of me when they saw it. Even my theatre teacher commented that she never hears my name used in as entence without cat in it! Here are some pictures an comments of my cat schol stuff:

First off is my cat bag. What type of bag is it?

A PENCIL POUCH OF EPICNESS! It is super cool! I love it a lot.
It has two sides to it! I got it from a friend who bought it at some Asian festival! My geography teacher pinched the cat's head during class... is that a good or bad thing?
This is my daily planner! I got it at Half Price Books for $3!

Here it is on the inside, which reminds me I have a math packet to finish for tomorrow...

My yellow English cat folder.

My pink cat homework folder.

And last but not least my cat binder for theatre!


That's all my cat school stuff, but that doesn't include some odd cat stuff I bring to school everyonce and a while (cat magazines, pencils, small stuffed animals, etc.)

Question of the Day!
Do you have any cat school supplies?
