My Cat My Therapy is a cat blog I run for people who live with cats, miss cats, or simply cannot stop watching them. My name is Farid Rouaissy. I started this site, I write the posts, and I decide what goes up. If something is on this page, it came through me.
I care about cats as individuals. A dumped stray, a rescue still learning the litter box, a cat who kneads your arm at 3 a.m. Each one is somebody. That is the thread through everything I publish.
About My Cat My Therapy: what you will find here
Rescue and recovery. Many posts follow cats who were hurt, abandoned, or overlooked, and the people who stepped in. Some of those stories are hard. I still publish them. The cat who lived through that day deserves a full account, including what came after. Recovery is slow and often unfinished. I try to leave that in.
Why cats do what they do. Scratching the sofa. Hiding under the bed. Knocking a glass off the table. I write about ordinary cat behavior in plain language, so you can respond to the animal in front of you. I am not a veterinarian. If something looks medical, take the cat to a vet who can actually examine them.
Honest care and product notes. Food, litter, toys, everyday gear. When I mention a product, I say what it is useful for and where it falls short. Product posts are a minority here. Most of the site is stories and behavior.
How I write
Every article on My Cat My Therapy is original. I do not copy other blogs or spin someone else’s post with a new headline. When I use research, I cite it so you can read the source yourself. When a story starts from a public video, a rescue update, or a news report, I treat that as reporting. I do not write it as if I was in the room unless I was.
I treat cats as someones. When their names are known, I use them. I do not use cats as props for a punchline or a product shot.
I do not publish a reader’s story, photo, or private message without permission. If you tell me something and you do not want it on the site, it stays off the site.
If I get a fact wrong, I correct the post.
The community is on Facebook
Most readers of My Cat My Therapy are on Facebook. That is where comments, shares, and the day-to-day conversation actually happen.
I read what people say. I cannot reply to every comment. I do try to keep the page a decent room to be in.
Affiliate links, said plainly
Some posts contain Amazon affiliate links. If you buy through one of those links, I may earn a small commission. The price you pay does not change.
I only recommend things I would actually use, or that I believe are a fair option for the problem the post is about. If I would not put it in a house with a cat I care about, it does not belong in the post.

Thanks for being here
That is the site. A cat blog, written by one person, for people who take cats seriously. If a post helps you understand your cat a little better, or makes you more patient with a rescue who is still learning to trust, then it did its job.
Thanks for reading.
