April 9-10, 2016: Bucharest, Romania: Olimpia cat show is the largest and most important event in the WCF system. It takes place annually, and on that weekend there may not be other WCF cat shows anywhere in the world. This year Olimpia was in our neighborhood, in Bucharest.

Le PETit WCF Meow Fest 1
December 14, 2014: a unique festival dedicated to cats took place in Belgrade – Meow Fest. Organizers from Felinology Club Le PETit invited visitors and exhibitors with following words: dear cat-lovers, please welcome to meow, purr, cuddle, to roar if needed, to learn and most of all – to have fun!
Meow Fest, Eda and winter
October 2014: meet Eda, a brave woman who deserves our respect! Eda now lives in a small town near Belgrade. She retreated from the big dirty city, swapped her apartment for a house with a yard, and made a shelter for temporary accommodation of dogs and cats. Dogs bark cheerfully, cats purr loudly, and this big family lives in joy and happiness. Shelters for animals are well thought out and equipped, everything is clean and tidy, and the animals are well cared for.
Most self-proclaimed animal welfare clubs are either inactive or serve as a cover for compulsive hoarding of animals. We have seen such cases – 20 animals in a one bedroom apartment, fleas, disease, angry neighbors, better not to talk…
Eda is an example of responsible animal care, an example that we want to promote and support in every way possible. For starters, at the Le Petit Meow Fest we will collect donations. We hope to raise enough money for another winter house for cats. Prepare a small contribution – winter is coming, cats must be tucked, brrr!
September 2014: Dear felinology friends, as you know, Le Petit Club has become the representative of WCF – World Cat Federation in Serbia. We are working on our first cat-show based on their rules. WCF cat-shows are different from TICA or FIFe shows – these are small festivals and have a number of programs for the general public: lectures, workshops, presentations, children entertainment and like, all of which require a good venue in the city center, a great effort on the organization and good sponsors.
Until then, on our website and Facebook we will present responsible and reputable catteries that are working according to felinology standards. In Serbia, irresponsible and unregistered breeders are a big problem. We are constantly contacted by people who want to purchase a breed cat but do not know where and how, and so we will work on education of cat-lovers and promote responsible breeding and ownership. Please visit our new page:
Yippie-yeah, finally I have whiskers 🙂
August 2014: Felinology Club Le PETit has more than 2000 followers on Facebook! Two thousand meows 🙂 Join us, if you have not already:
University of Science students at Le PETit
When you work with animals, you meet many wonderful people!
July 2104: Felinology Club Le PETit had a visit from two extraordinary girls – Tea and Nevena, students of the Belgrade University of Science. They organized colleagues at their university to collect aid for people and animals from flooded areas. During those tragic days the students were resourceful, committed, enthusiastic and full of empathy for all living beings afflicted by terrible floods, and they collected substantial aid that was immediately distributed to where it was needed. That is how we met, and then decided to continue working together.
Tea and Nevena helped us in our daily Le PETit activities – feeding baby kittens, combing and brushing long-haired guests, comforting cats missing their owners. It was wonderful to watch those girls communicating with delicate cat souls. Bravo and a big meow for Tea and Nevena 🙂
Safe!
May 22, 2014, flood refugee camp in Kosutnjak, Belgrade: kitten Flekica (Spot), safely tucked in volunteer Ana’s hood… taking care of animals too, because every life is important!
Help for cats and dogs rescued from flooded city of Obrenovac, that was collected at the Faculty of Chemistry, arrived in the good paws! Cat food, medicines and toys were taken to a refugee shelter in Košutnjak and animal shelter on Bežanija. Twenty cats and many, many dogs are taken care of, but the job is not done yet: all the lost or abandoned animals need to find a new home! We’ll try to organize animal adoption events, similar to our Meow Weekend at the Youth Center, when more than one hundred cats were adopted.
Cat Show with March 8th Motif
March 8-9, 2014: Belgrade TICA Cat Show
And this year’s TICA International Cat Show in Belgrade is over! We spent the whole day in the company of delicate or chunky, bushy or bald, colorful or black & white but altogether majestic creatures – cats. Cats of various breeds shone and strutted like real divas, but in this glamorous society everybody noticed the special glow of cats saved from the streets! Some call them domestic cats, others stray or street cats, TICA calls them household pets… you can call them whatever you want, but international judges from Sweden, Spain, Japan, Austria and France have noticed and commented on how beautiful our domestic cats are! Judges said they would never have guessed that these cats were born on the street!
And among them, the first among equals, was Le PETit tomcat Dado! He got compliments by judges, and applauses and cheers from visitors. Dado was in a great mood and was looking forward to each new judging. When he is in such a good mood, no one can resist his charm, and in the five rings Dado won four first places and one second! Bravo for Dado 🙂
The Great Spring Le PETit Meow Party
March 7, 2014: as the announcement of the upcoming spring, on every March we are having an International Cat Show in Belgrade. And that’s always a good opportunity for Le PETit Meow Party – a nice warm-up for the exhibition!

At the meeting with the new city secretary for Municipal Affairs, we stated numerous problems in communication between NGOs and authorities. We agreed that it is the mutual desire of both parties to overcome the problems and find a solution through constant dialogue and cooperation.
Meow! As the meeting took place in the first days of the New Year we want to believe that this meetings is the dawn of better days, in which citizens and city institutions work in synergy for prosperity of animals in Belgrade.

Le PETit Public Counseling
October 4th 2013, World Animal Day: we co-organized a public Counseling on responsible ownership. Vets and felinologists provided expert advice on pet care. This was a great opportunity for all current and future owners to get free advice on breeding, nutrition and education of their pets.
World Animal Day, October 4th, was established in 1931. in Florence at the World Congress of Animal Friends. Its commemoration promotes animal protection and care for their well-being. This year, many associations in Serbia will organize various events to remind of link between people, animals and nature, the necessity of regulation and punishment of individuals whose behavior endangers the whole society.
The Story of Tomcat Mita
September 4, 2013: today Facebook page lepetit.rs had more than 30.000 visitors!
B92.net: „The story of tomcat Mita first appeared on Felinology Club Le PETit’s Facebook page. Short but effective story has sparked a lot of interest, lots of favorable comments, and then instantly spread to many pages of cat lovers. In just one day, tomcat Mita had tens of thousands views, „likes“ and „shares“. The story is about a familiar dilemma faced by all pet owners, prospective parents…“
Bon aPETit: Cat Nutrition Seminar
September 7, 2013: starting this autumn, in cooperation with Club Leila, we will organize regular meetings of cat owners and lovers! In the posh club atmosphere we will discuss hot topics – cat nutrition, care and training.
To begin with, we asked Le PETit cat-food guru, DVM Snežana Praštalo, to give us a lecture on new concepts of cat nutrition. In particular, we will concentrate on Schesir holistic cat-food concept. Snežana will teach us to read food package labels with understanding, and to recognize symptoms of cat malnutrition.
Pet Party – Pet Pageant
July 2013: Pet Party at Delta City shopping mall. The party is over, and we can’t wait for the next one! We had a great time, and our cats and dogs enjoyed it even more. Le PETit protégé, tomcat Mića has won (as we expected) and got valuable and delicious awards. And our kitten Lolica has found great owners and a happy home!
The Best of Show cat was awarded with something that really suits cat’s aristocrat nature and refined taste: a five day stay at the premium Le PETit Cat Hotel, with all-inclusive service and fitness program. In addition, the winner will enjoy Natural Trainer food and Biogance pet cosmetics!
The most beautiful and most crowded stand was Le PETit stand, of course! We had many guests and an opportunity to meet our virtual friends from Facebook. We thank all pets, owners or future owners, and we are looking forward to see you all at the next Pet Party!
Pet Friendly Belgrade – Pets Welcome
June 2013: our “Pet Friendly Belgrade” campaign is well-received and attracts much media attention! All major newspapers and internet portals have published the story, and many national TV’s have covered the event. We had city representatives at the promotion and they promised full support. Our friends with pets are informing us that now they are welcomed in many more shops, restaurants and bars. Pets welcome – for nicer and more humane Belgrade!

Le PETit represents Serbia in WCF
April 2013: we received an official confirmation that our furry Le PETit Club, after a looong application process, is admitted in the World Cat Federation! Meow!
WCF – World Cat Federation is a international federation of felinologists, breeders and cat lovers, based in Germany. WCF brings together more than 370 organizations and clubs from Europe, the U.S. and the world. In the Parliament of Europe in Strasbourg, WCF is authorized to participate in the assessment process, in proposing and passing legislation related to the protection and welfare of animals.
WCF recognizes and respects the domestic cat. It is very important for us – all our cats are “European Shorthair” and deserve a lot of recognition and respect! On photos are our new colleagues: the application process was handled by WCF Vice-president, Tatyana Chernova of Lithuania, and our mentor will be Secretary General of the WCF himself – Andreas Möbius, a living legend and a urban myth among cat lovers!
March 2013: The 5th and 6th The International Cat Association cat shows took place on March 9 and 10, 2013, at the Belgrade Fair. Organizer: Felinology Club Felis Serbica.
The Le PETit’s stand was continuously crowded. The stand was named “Dear Le PETit” and we tirelessly gave visitors advice on cat adopting, feeding or training. Our cats Dado and Ziggy were a hit, because they were completely relaxed and wandered around the exhibition freely.
Cat (and) people
January 2013: Meow Forum at the Belgrade Youth Center.
After the great success of the first Le PETit Meow Weekend at the Belgrade Youth Center, we invite you to meow again! Come to purr with us, to cuddle and discuss felinology and cats. At the present time, such as it is, why it is necessary to socialize with cats? We believe that cats are training us, and teaching us tolerance, patience, understanding of individuality, respect for the freedom, acceptance of diversity, rejecting the prejudices … all the things which people around us often fail to do! Let’s take a cat for a pet and a friend, hang out with them and we will be better people – cat people!
Cure – neuter – reintegrate
November 2012: vaccination, neutering and microchipping stray cats in municipality of Zvezdara.
Le PETit is on the edge of the Zvezdara forest, and around our building there are dozens of stray cats we care of. They are our “freelancers!” We follow the “cure – neuter – reintegrate” concept, we try to monitor and control the cat population here, so we regularly neuter cats at the Veterinary Institution of Belgrade. Cats are vaccinated, neutered and chipped. On this occasion only, the value of veterinary services was more than 300 euros. We thank our City Council and Veterinary Institution for the donation!
World Animal Day
October 2012: celebration in the Knez Mihajlova Street, and a forum at the Belgrade Youth Center.
Dear animal lovers, Thursday is World Animal Day – please join us in the Knez Mihajlova Street from 12 to 2 pm, and then at the Belgrade Youth Center at 7 pm. Together we are strong – at the Meow Weekend, we promoted the responsible ownership and found homes for more than 100 cats, and this Thursday, at a forum in Belgrade Youth Center, we will discuss that dreaded phrase that we hear often – “there are more important problems than animals!”
Le PETit Meow Weekend
September 2012: two-day cat festival at the Belgrade Youth Center.
Two days of meowing, cuddling, adopting, learning, laughter and fun! The most important event during these two days will be public cat adoption. Felinologists and vets will be present all the time, all cats will be professionally inspected, and Veterinary Institution of Belgrade will donate vaccines and micro-chips. Adopted kittens will get valuable gifts from our sponsors – delicious food for a successful start!
On the lectures and in direct contact with the vets, visitors will have the opportunity to learn everything on cat care, nutrition and training, and psychologists and psychotherapists will explain why it is important for every family to have a very special pet – a cat!
We have prepared many other surprises: workshops for children in collaboration with the American Corner, cartoons for kids, live presentation of exotic cat breeds, exhibitions of cat art and photography, collections with hundreds of everyday objects with cat motifs…
International Homeless Animals’ Day
August 2012: event at the Knez Mihajlova Street.
The marking of Homeless Animals Day was great. On that Saturday evening, Knez Mihailova Street was very crowded and many people have approached our info-desks where we informed them on the animal welfare issues. The stars of this event were our tiny furry assistant – a charming kitten Gara, and one very commited young activist – little girl Iskra (Sparkle). In the photo: Iskra and Gara, acting together!
Even Bigger Adoption Day
May 2012: cats and dogs adoption event
Belgrade Youth Center is the first city institution that opened its doors to stray dogs and cats, in order to raise awareness on animal welfare issues. On our first Adoption Day event we promoted animal adopting as a matter of prestige and trend, and adoption of crossbreed pets or animals with disabilities as a politically correct thing. Our second Adoption Day event, now called Even Bigger Adoption Day, was very successful – we discussed many responsible ownership topics, and found homes for 43 animals!
Le PETit Zoky – the winner!
March 2012: The 2nd The International Cat Association cat show took place on March 17 and 18, 2012, at the Belgrade Fair. Organizer: Felinology Club Felis Serbica.

Garden of Good Hope
September 2010: adoption event at the Belgrade Zoo.
We thank our friends at the Belgrade Zoo for allowing us to offer homeless cats for adoption. Unfortunately, no cat found a home. The children were charmed by our kittens, but their parents were hard-hearted. We hope we will have better luck next time!
