Cats Holidays

A cat in Bryn Mawr celebrates International Cat Day by taking a nap.

Considering you're already on the internet, do you even need a reason to look at cat pictures? 

In case you do, here's one: August 8 is International Cat Day. 

It's been a crazy couple of weeks for Philadelphians and the Delaware Valley as a whole. The city is essentially shutting down for Pope Francis' visit. Pennsylvania's Attorney General and a U.S. Congressman from Philadelphia have been indicted. We're still a month away from the upcoming Eagles season, but training camp is in full swing.

So, to provide some distraction and celebrate the holiday, here are some pictures of local felines:
