Welcome To The Cat-A-Log

Is this the largest collection of cat stories you have ever seen?

Cat-a-log is a catalogue of information about cats – the domestic variety! Starting from the Purr ‘n’ Fur website, which ran for 15 years or so but is no longer kept up to date, the aim is to give any current information on the cats featured there –  but a whole lot more as well:  adventurous cats, cats around town, cats with special needs, notable cat rescues, memorials to cats, and much more … any and all of our feline friends who have been in the news and even some who haven’t.

To start with, you’ll find Pot-purri, with famous cats, cats in fables, a selection of people who are or were cat fans, a gallery of British pub signs featuring cats, and a collection of short items of interest in ‘Fragments’ and ‘Mini fragments’.  Further sections will follow in due course. If you use our information elsewhere, we’d appreciate a credit to Cat-a-log.

Note: Where all page headings are in violet, those pages derive from the Purr ‘n’ Fur site. Where the main page or and/or section headings are green, those pages or information are new. Cat-a-log is a huge and still growing collection of remarkable cats, extraordinary people, curious history, folklore, art, literature and delightful oddities.

Some of the stories you may have heard before like Bob the Street Cat. Others may be new to you.

Take your time. Wander where your curiosity leads (you should be okay if you are human) and lose yourself in our collection – like a cat behind a sofa – and come back out when you are ready.

Discover. Explore. Fall in love.

Your complete catalogue of cats, all in one place.

One search opens the door to a world of whiskers, wonder and wonderfully unexpected discoveries.

Working Cats

They probably work harder than we do. But we are working as fast we can and hope to have this category ready for you soon.

Don’t you just love the glare?

Stay a Little Longer

As you know, cats have a way of making life more fun. One look, one leap, one soft purr, and the day can feel a bit more kind. That same joy runs all the way through Cat-a-log. Dip into true tales, odd lore, rare art, old maps, celebrity cat lovers, and much more. You can pop in for five mins or lose an hour with a grin on your face. We will do our best to keep this updated and maybe some new gems will join the site as time goes by. So do call back now and then. We will keep the cat tales, you bring the tea and the keen mind. There is much more yet to find.
