Peter Wolf of Vox Felina becomes voice for FixNation
 Vox Felina
FixNation is also thrilled to welcome and announce new Board Member, Peter Wolf, author of the blog Vox Felina.  Vox Felina translates in latin to "The Cats Voice" and in his blog, Peter addresses as he puts it, "correspondence, news reports, [and] commentary focused on a range of issues related to "the plight" of feral cats in general, and trap-neuter-return (TNR) in particular."

Peter is a wealth of information and knowledge on issues related to feral cats, and his unique and forward-thinking perspective on such matters will help lead FixNation and our advocacy efforts forward. 

If you haven't already subscribed to Vox Felina, we recommend that bookmark it and add it to your reading list today!


 
Interesting cat fact: Meows around the world

The sound a cat makes is unique and is rendered onomatopoeically as "meow" or similar variants ("miaow", "miau" etc.) in most European languages as well as Mandarin Chinese. Japanese has it as "nyaa" or "nyan"; Korean as "yaong" or "nyaong". In Arabic the sound is transcribed as "mowa'a".
