International Cat Day International Cat Day is a full 24 hours of recognition and veneration of one of humanitys oldest and most beloved pets. The festivities were put together for the first time in 2002 by IFAW, the International Fund for Animal Welfare, among other animal rights groups, to celebrate the most popular pet on the planet. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/international-cat-day/Happiness Happens Day Founded in 1999 under the name of Admit Youre Happy Day by the Secret Society of Happy People, Happiness Happens Day aims to spread the joy of being happy, and to persuade people to look on the brighter side of life. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/happiness-happens-day/
