Hey readers,
I think today is the purr-fect day to answer a cat question. Why? Because it’s Answer Your Cat’s Question Day, of course!

This question is from chickaDEE reader, Albert.
Question: “Why does my cat, Tommy, always sit under my chair and sleep there?”
Answer:
Some cats simply like sleeping in places that are out of sight because it makes them feel safe. Another possible reason Tommy relaxes under your chair is to be close to you! Sleeping in this spot may be your feline’s way of saying “Hey, I love you a lot!”
I hope that answers your question, Albert!
Remember to send your pet questions to chickadeeblog@owlkids.com. You may just see it answered in chickaDEE’s Pet Patrol one day!

Little Penguins
Happy Penguin Awareness Day! Did you know that there are 18 species of penguins? Unfortunately, 13 types of these birds are endangered in some way. Penguins rely on the world’s oceans to hunt for their favourite food, fish. It is important to keep oceans and beaches clean so our penguin friends can stay happy and healthy.
Now it’s time to meet one of my favourite penguins! Little Penguins, also known as Fairy Penguins, live in Australia. As you might have guessed from their name, Little Penguins are the smallest penguins in the world. Little Penguins hang out for most of the day in the ocean searching for food. At night, they come out of the water and waddle back to their homes in the sand dunes. To learn more about these loveable birds, click HERE.
Before I go, here’s a funny penguin joke!
Q: What do penguins like to eat?
A:: Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrritos!
Hilarious!
