Did You Know

The world's wealthiest cat inherited ____ from its owner.

(scroll to the bottom to find the answer!)

If your cat is yowling for breakfast an hour early (or late), don’t take it personally—daylight saving time isn’t on their radar. Unlike humans, cats don’t run on clocks. Their internal schedule is based on light, hunger, and routine, which means our twice-a-year time shifts make zero sense to them.

Cats have circadian rhythms that tell them when it’s time to wake up, eat, and sleep. When we change the clocks, they don’t reset overnight. They’ll still expect breakfast at the same time their stomach tells them, even if the clock says otherwise.

To help your cat adjust, try shifting their schedule gradually. Moving meals, playtime, and bedtime by 10–15 minutes each day can make the transition smoother. Keeping a consistent daily routine also helps them settle into the new rhythm.

Some cats adapt quickly, while others take a few days to accept the change. Either way, don’t be surprised if you get an early morning wake-up call—your cat’s just doing what feels right!

We love writing about cats at the Daily Purr — and now we’re bringing that same care to the daily news.

After noticing that the news we read is often biased, political, and unnecessarily negative, we set out to change that.

That's why we created Revel News, a daily newsletter that delivers national and world news with balance and thoughtfulness. Who writes it? Us! The same cat-loving team behind Daily Purr. We’re unbiased—except, of course, when it comes to cats. (We have a kitty story almost every day!)

We’d love for you to give us a try and would be grateful for your feedback on how to improve it.

Some cats have an attitude that demands royal treatment, and Maccha is one of them. Known for her sassy personality and commanding presence, this feline recently received the ultimate honor—a custom oil painting capturing her regal essence.

The portrait was created by Depicteur, a company that transforms photos into stunning artwork. Inspired by Maccha’s confident demeanor, the artists decided she deserved a masterpiece worthy of a queen. The result? A royal-style painting that captures her elegance—though Maccha herself seemed unimpressed.

Like any true ruler, Maccha likely cares more about treats than art. But her owners love the painting, and fans agree—it’s the perfect tribute to a cat who rules her home with an iron paw. Whether she acknowledges it or not, Maccha now has a portrait as majestic as she is.
