DediCATion to Spokes-cat Murrli

There’s always a cat in a dedication. And this is my dedication to a feline friend who I took the first steps on social media with. Fank mew, sweetie.

Murrli crossed the rainbow bridge on 15 January 2019. She remains the feline face of the Meow Factor, which is now continued in her memory.

Any blog dealing with cats needs its own cat representative. And this is where I come in: Murrli Katzenberger, the spokes-cat and the face for The Meow Factor and I own Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

My official name is Murrli Katzenberger. At least, that is who I am online. Actually, I do not care about names, and as long as I get my food, I will turn up at “Mieze” or simply “Katze”, too.

In my offline life, I like the outdoors and enjoy hunting for mice, rats, insects, and the odd bat.

Spokes-cat, front cat, or cat testimonial? Actually, I am all and more: I am a cat, and “most formidable and dangerous predator” would be more appropriate anyway.
