World’s Best Cat Litter™ has launched a new charity that will donate much-needed cat litter to animal shelters. And all you have to do is vote!

Using Facebook, fans of World’s Best Cat Litter™ can vote daily to donate pounds of litter to shelters and organizations devoted to helping our cat communities.

For the next 45 days, visit our Facebook page and vote for one of these three deserving organizations:

The Washington Animal Rescue League

The Washington Humane Society

Alley Cat Allies in partnership with Friends of the Fairfax County Animal Shelter

Vote early and vote often. (You can vote once daily.) Once you become a fan, we’ll donate a tenth of a pound of World’s Best Cat Litter™ for every vote you register. At the end of the voting period, the litter will be distributed proportionally to the total vote count.

Not a fan yet? Become a fan and we’ll donate a whole pound. In fact, we already added a pound for every current fan. That is nearly 2,000 pounds of pet-safe, all-natural litter.

And tell your friends. To make this a true success for these fine organizations, we need the help of the World’s Best Cat Litter™ faithful to recruit voting and doting fans. The more people you can get to become a fan, the more pounds of cat litter we will donate.

In other words, if you take care of the many, the pounds will take care of themselves!

Vote for change (of litter).

Consult with your veterinarian for the best way to control fleas for your cat and your environment. But the best way to control fleas is to prevent them. And the best way to prevent fleas is pure diligence:

• Vacuum carpets, rugs, drapes and upholstered furniture often
• Mow the lawn regularly; fleas and ticks love high grass
• Spend some quality time and groom your cat routinely
• And if you find fleas, give kitty a soapy bath (no matter how much she protests) and remove fleas with a fine-toothed metal comb

There is plenty of advice on the web about natural flea control—from serving your cat a bit of brewer’s yeast to making your own herbal flea collars … from scratch!

And certainly, there are many chemical solutions, such as pesticide-based flea collars. But we have to wonder about flea collars that include “NOT FOR USE ON HUMANS” warnings on the packaging, which is most of them. If they aren’t safe enough to wear as a “Live Flea Free” bracelet, are they really safe for our whiskered wee ones?

But maybe those warning are there simply because the thought of us wearing flea collars as bracelets offends our cats’ sense of feline fashion. After all, a tabby doesn’t look too shabby in a hat. … And we hear a cat’s pajamas are, well, the cat’s meow.

But before we slide into a whole new digression of cats in clothes, we’ll leave you with what may be the cutest thing you’ll see all day: kittens on a slide.

Meow for now,

National Pet Week was jointly founded in 1981 by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the Auxiliary to the AVMA to promote responsible pet ownership, celebrate the human-animal bond and promote public awareness of veterinary medicine.

The theme for 2010 is “Pets and People—Healthy Together,” encouraging exercise for people and pets alike. (Did you know that 57% of cats in the United States are overweight, according to the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention?)

So how do you get a cat to exercise more than her right to sleep? Vetinfo.com has some good tips.

And, as always, share your secrets right here. We love hearing from you any week of the year!
