2026 FatCatArt Calendar

❤️ Thank you for the kind words for Chili Bruce; he's as right as rain now.❤️

Ooh, I love FatCatArt!

Am an art historian at heart, and cannot get enough of classic artwork improved by the artist's cats.

Look at my previous FatCatArt posts:

Tyger

Always so exciting to get my FatCatArt 2024 Calendar!

This year, youngster Tyger Blake takes on a larger role, and he's just too cute. 
Visit FatCatArt:

The artist, Sveta Petrova, is very gifted.

 And here's the weirdest part; I've just seen the 'overpainted' versions of several of these artworks!
Irises
Vincent Van Gogh
The Met, New York
The Lovers
René Magritte
MoMA, New York
The Dream
Henri Rousseau
MoMA, New York

2023 Fat Cat Art Calendar

So excited to get this in the mail,

Artist Svetlana Petrova has the incredible talent to improve artwork with her beautiful, photogenic cats Celestial Zarathustra, Tyger, and David Bowie.

David Bowie as pussy willow fluffs!

Look!
Celestial Zarathustra was playing in Vincent van Gogh's 1888 "Artist's Chair"...

...and I was standing in front of the unimproved version just a few days ago at the "Van Gogh in America" exhibition at the Detroit Institute of Arts!

Farewell, Zarathustra

With great sadness, we report:

Zarathustra

the big ginger cat featured on FatCatArt.ru's art,

has left his mortal body and his spirit has flown to the stars.

2022 FatCatArt Calendar

Here are a few pitiful images from my poor-excuse-for-a-camera phone.

To me, each piece is supremely beautiful because of Zarathustra, the big ginger cat, and his wee brofur DB (David Bowie).

I adore these images, and revel in every new one that is revealed.

2021 FatCatArt Calendar!

YAY!
My 2021 Fat Cat Art Calendar arrived!





I simply ADORE this art, and continue to be amazed by the gorgeous images of famous art, improved by Zarathustra the big ginger mancat!

I've also found dear friends via Fat Cat Art's Facebook page, for which I am incredibly thankful.
You know who you are *wink*!

Too sad.

September 1: Ginger Cat Appreciation Day!

Right now, Eastside Cats has no ginger cats in residence.

Hopefully, one (or two...) will choose us someday!

However, in honor of this special day, dear friends have loaned us images of their beloved orange cats, and I have a bevy to show you!

First up: Eric and Angel Sparky (who left us in January), who live with ET in British Columbia, Canada:



The next video is Rufus, who lives in Detroit, Michigan with his cat mom CE, and the rest of his clowder:



This gorgeous threesome live in Florida, with P&M:

Rusty
Skittles
Mango
And, no Ginger Cat Day celebration would be complete without...

Zarathustra, from Russia!

Two-zday

Da Boyz chase each other around the house, then climb up and commence the whapping!

🙀😼🙀

Today is World Spay Day!

Image used with permission from FatCatArt.ru
Look at Zarathustra (ginger cat) and DB (white cat)...so cute!

From the Humane Society Veterinary Medical Association website here: 

"Launched in 1995, World Spay Day is an annual campaign that aims to encourage people to save animal lives by spaying and neutering companion animals and feral cats. World Spay Day itself is celebrated annually on the fourth Tuesday in February."

Here, in Pet Blogland, we are all already on board.
Yet, we can still influence others, by talking with neighbors, chatting up the people standing in line with you to get coffee, or while shopping for pet food at the store.

This is how I discuss my anti-declaw stance, as well as spay and neuter topics, and taking your pet to the vet instead of asking questions on social media!
(Note my grinding teeth...)

When will we have a political candidate who espouses free or low cost vet care to everyone?
If anyone shows up with that platform, no matter what party affiliation, they will get my full support!

2020 FatCatArt Calendar!

I absolutely ADORE Svetlana Petrova's art, featuring Zarathustra, a large ginger mancat.
The 2020 Calendar that I ordered arrived; here are some highlights...

Disclosure: I received no compensation for this post.  Sveta, Zarathustra, and DB have become dear friends of mine via the worldwide interwebs, but I'll only post items that I feel are interesting to you, my readers.

2019 FatCatArt Calendar

You all know that I'm in LURV with my kitties (especially The PO'M!), but there is one big ginger boy that I am totally infatuated with...

Zarathustra!
In Russia!

So, the minute that I saw that FatCatArt had their 2019 Calendar available, well, I logged onto the website and bought one!  Zarathustra graces the pages of this most excellent calendar, and I am one happy camper!

Notice Z's brofur DB (David Bowie) in the bottom corner





Trust me, am planning a trip to St. Petersburg, 'cause I'd love to meet Z, DB and Sveta (artist and cat mom) in purrson!
