If We Humans could only be half as energized & energetic as Cali The Calico. How 1 Cool Urban Feline keeps her Senior fit as a Fiddle. CALiNASTiCS® works.



Cali planning her Daily Run.


ASK’s AUTHORED NOTE:

 
My Comment was far too detailed to fit into the ever-too-brief LinkedIn Dialog Box & since CATXercising with CALi is what We do and are known for in our Hood & online, besides the Fact that She is ONE OF THE ONLY CATS in Roger’s Park (a Chicago Neighborhood) who walks on a Leash like her Dog Buddies & Encounterparts do), I decided to BLOG this in its Entirety to encourage others to BE MORE LIKE CALi.  I know I’m constantly learning from her. That’s why I have deemed her as a #suPURR_Species. My Love Affair with CATS spans over 60 years & CALi is indeed My #suPURR_Star

#October_21_2018:  1 Month into Autumn: 2018

I take all my Pointers from CALi_My_Calico. Every Day We walk down 6 flights of steps (14 per landing) to get to our Outback.  She is on her leash, of course, as the building We live in demands that for our Pet CATS & DOGS, but I continuously watch & learn from her even in the Wee Hours of the Morning. She is a Teacher of the Highest Grade without saying a Word. On those Steps, She paces herself. She stops at Landings; if necessary, She will stop in the Middle of a flight & pause - PAWSe, that is - to wash a Leg or comb thru her Tail Hairs.

When preening on a Step, I put my hand out so that she does not lose her Balance as she is on a rather narrow Step.  She makes it down each flight and then marks the adjacent wall before she swings around the corner to continue down one more level.  On the main floor she waits again; til the coast is clear.  I then open the big Exit Door and we're in the lobby at which time she walks a bit of a distance; rolls around on the floor & then proceeds, walking thru 3 Doorways.  

Once Outdoors, she RUNS - on her beautiful little "chubby" Legs all the way 2 the back of the Property; past the Garage with 2 lines of Vehicles; under the wrought iron fence to the OUTBACK where the bunnies, rabbits, birds, wild mice & squirrels are. Roam is now the BuzzWord to use. IF she is really invigorated, energized or energetic she will then RUN 1/2 a block on the grass and thru the trees to the middle of the LOT.  Many early Mornings when there is dew on the Lawn she does not hesitate to do the same.  Although I really do not want MY CAT's FEET to get cold; this is something (an Activity) she yearns for and I feel her Outings help her cope mentally & spiritually as an Inner City CAT - of which so many are confined to Apartment Living.

With these Nature Outings performed ~ PURRformed several Times a Day (if the weather is not brutal), She then gets 2 B the NATURE CAT she was meant to be. I know her Travails here really needs to be filmed as it makes for a great TV Commercial on #CATXercising with your PET. 


OR a SuperBowl (can you say: suPURR Bowl Commercial?) 

How Humans (Seniors - People over 50) stay FIT with their PETS: Life in the 2018s...revving up for our #DECADE_OF_THE_CAT_FELiNE featuring Cali's 366 all original CAT HOLIDATES. It’s a gratifying Feeling to know that you both are PURRticipating in Physical & Mental Activities that prolong (our) Lives so that your Beloved Pet CAT has many more than the typical 9 Lives and that Nature provides that every Day of the given Year. Join the Newest PET Trend yet: CALiNASTiCS®.

FURTHERMORE:  With so many Seniors being retired, they are able to spend MORE 


Quality Time with their Pets; 

thus allowing "The Animal" more Companionship and "Happy Times ahead" than if The CAT or DOG had to wait for his/her Master to get home from Work, day-in and day-out.  Robbed of 40+ Hours a Week (not counting Transportation Time), many PETS lead extremely lonely and sedentary Lives which is a Heartbreak, plain and simple.  This is not how Animals should be treated and to me, is a Form of Animal Abuse.

Energizing & Energetic are only 2 Words in Cali's Vocabulary.   We have 25 more Alpha Letters to explore...

I'm happy to say that The Media has given me Four (4) other one-of-a-kind Titles of Distinction since August of 1997.  And, I am using my "CELEBRiTY" to shine a LiGHT on CAT Welfare with Cali as My GUiDE.

Cali loves to walk across the newly fallen Leaves
in our Outback which is "out back."
This is where - IN NATURE - where She really gets to be
THE CAT
She was meant to be.
We Humans should never deny that to our Loving Pet Cats & Dogs.


Cali & Me:
At the End of a few vigorous & rigorous Workouts every Day,
We hunker down & take a CatNap together.
Fresh Air does that to us
whether you are covered in Fur or Flesh.

Cali, you look so adorable looking outside planning out your day of fun. Our kitties love to also play in the leaves outback. They love to run and slide on them. Hope you have a great snuggle time after a long workout day. Thanks for the share.

Thank you for your Post, World of Animals. Cal-Gal is the most adorable CAT in the World who I have ever MET. Of course, I am PURRejudiced. She melts my heart all the time. She is doing it now. But Pictures are deceiving, WoA. Since I've known her & it will be 2 years on Nov. 5, 2016, within our 1st 9 months together, she moved 6 times. Talk about adapting. I moved 6 times in 5 years and didn't realize I (nor she) were such Gypsies til we found out (ONCE AGAIN) in late Sept (a few weeks ago) that our bldg. is being sold. That is all outlined hereon another BLOG called:

THE BIG STORY BEHIND URBAN DECAY: UNVEILING ANIMAL CRUELTY IN THE 21ST CENTURY. When our precious and prized Pet Cats & Dogs are tossed by The Wayside.
https://tinyurl.com/ybhyxwvv

The BIG Problem is: When you are 50+, many times your Pet is a service pet as well as companion (if a spouse dies/divorce, etc) and with Pet Rents and no affordable Housing in Chicago, these precious Pets are set free and/or sent to a shelter where they are euthanized.

Well, Cali & I wont stand for that! We and 100s of others are heading to City Hall on Wed to present our Senior Housing Bill of Rights to make sure SENIORS & their Pets stay together for however long We can.

Yes, she does take a Sweet Picture, but there's so much going on in her Life, she really needs to have 9 or more of those Lives in which to solve them all...

Thank you for writing! We appreciate your Thoughts.

Sincerely,
Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith - aka: Cali's Human.

Thank you for the reply. We will talk soon. Great to meet you and we love your blog.

Dear World of Animals:
As if there's any other!
How sweet of you to write again!
Pleasure is all mine. Went to your Website & had meant to write back from there, but guess what: Life got in the Way; my Way. At my age, you'd think I would have it all together. No wonder Miss Cali has 9. She knows exactly what to do! And, today, as we both know: It's #CATurday so it's time to spoil her all the more! She "broke" into my BF's closet where she goes for quietude. We had a hanger closing the door & a big box propped up against it; I heard a huge noise - in which she had knocked the hanger off the 2 "handles & leaped over the box to her "Quiet Place." How can U tell her NO then. I know I can't! Time to dash over to the Store to get groceries & back home. Working on Cali's Calendar which is such a FUN project. It will contact 366 all-original CAT Holidates under the Auspices of: 2019-2029 designated as The Decade of The Cat ~Feline which has been on my drawing board since 1997. Which reminds me: Did U happen to download or attend Royal Canin's 50th Year Anniversary Party in Paris, France on Wednesday?

Called:

THE FUTURE OF ANiMAL RELATIONSHIP CONFERENCE

https://royalcanin.fcst.tv/50years

You can watch it on the above URL. Totally mesmerizing. I'm hooked up to them on LinkedIn and the conversations are still continuing, PURRobably for the next 50 years. I hope so as the Topics were write-on-target. You certainly could add lots to the Conversation, Doctors Alison, Dominic, Rachael, Jeffrey & Friends. FYI, they are part of Mars Petcare. Again, thank you for being so nice & friendly & above all else, HELPING to take care of our lovely PETS!

Have a suPURR Weekend!

Cheers,
Adrienne & Cali
