Cats: 101 Review

 I have a cat named Que Sera.  She is about a year old.  She is a love.  I also collect cats.  Cat figurines, glasswear, knick-knacks etc.  I think this qualifies me as a cat lover.  I just think they are so pretty.  So funny and mysterious.  Since I work ful time and Que Sera is often left alone, I switch on a TV to the Animal Planet and turn the volume down on my way out the door.  I don't think the cat watches this, mind you, but I feel better thinking I left her with entertainment.

 One evening when I came home, I sat petting Que Sera while absently watching whatever show that was on Animal Planet at that time.  I saw a commercial for a show called Cats: 101.  It said it was a new series about cat breeds, their origins, habits, health and how well they would work in certain families.  I immediately set up a series recording for the show and then turned the channel and went to take a shower.

 The first episode of Cats: 101 I caught was about three different cat breeds.  I was told the name of each breed, their health concerns, grooming needs, activity levels and how they would be in different family settings.  This was done through chats with animal experts such as veterinarians, cat owners and breeders as well as cute video clips of each breed as both kittens and cats.  They even make charts showing the degree of each item touched upon.  I really liked it.

 I have since seen two other episodes and they each had different cat breeds.  There are so many things I didn't know about them.  Cats :101 is informative as well as entertaining.  I even saw a breed that looked sort of like Que Sera, though not exactly.

 Cats:101 airs Saturdays at 8p.m. edt on Animal Planet.  I will continue to watch and see if I finally see my own cat's breed.
