00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,620


2
00:00:03,620 --> 00:00:07,340
Live from the cat
cave in downtown God

3
00:00:07,340 --> 00:00:10,385
knows where next to the
washer and the dryer,

4
00:00:10,385 --> 00:00:13,520
it's Cat Mojo with
Jackson Galaxy.

5
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:23,340


6
00:00:23,340 --> 00:00:25,130
Welcome, welcome to Cat Mojo.

7
00:00:25,130 --> 00:00:28,115
I'm Jackson Galaxy
live from the cat cave.

8
00:00:28,115 --> 00:00:30,870
It is actually looking more like
a cave these days, isn't it?

9
00:00:30,870 --> 00:00:32,369
There's all kinds
of fun stuff here.

10
00:00:32,369 --> 00:00:33,820
I wanted to point this out.

11
00:00:33,820 --> 00:00:37,630
Diane Dial in Florida,
thank you, Diane,

12
00:00:37,630 --> 00:00:40,500
for sending this
picture, this painting,

13
00:00:40,500 --> 00:00:42,356
of my lovely cat Caroline.

14
00:00:42,356 --> 00:00:44,900
Don't you see the
resemblance, Caroline?

15
00:00:44,900 --> 00:00:49,100
It will become a permanent
fixture in the cat cave.

16
00:00:49,100 --> 00:00:52,080
Let's talk about Cat Mojo 101.

17
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:52,789
What is cat mojo?

18
00:00:52,789 --> 00:00:54,871
We've talked about this
before, but let's bring up

19
00:00:54,871 --> 00:00:56,470
that little dictionary
looking thing.

20
00:00:56,470 --> 00:00:59,990
It says cat mojo, what
motivates all cats.

21
00:00:59,990 --> 00:01:00,830
It's very simple.

22
00:01:00,830 --> 00:01:04,739
The fact is that it wasn't
until about 120 years ago

23
00:01:04,739 --> 00:01:09,040
that we permanently brought
cats into our houses.

24
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:14,640
And that means that they
live a very pure existence.

25
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,960
They still have it hardwired
in their brain to hunt.

26
00:01:17,960 --> 00:01:20,970
And that is the first
thing about cat mojo,

27
00:01:20,970 --> 00:01:22,630
hunt, catch, kill, eat.

28
00:01:22,630 --> 00:01:25,180
What's the second thing that's
so important about cat mojo?

29
00:01:25,180 --> 00:01:26,780
What motivates them?

30
00:01:26,780 --> 00:01:30,100
Well, with the hunting, and
the catching, and the killing,

31
00:01:30,100 --> 00:01:33,100
and the eating comes
the owning, right?

32
00:01:33,100 --> 00:01:35,170
It's all about ownership.

33
00:01:35,170 --> 00:01:38,122
Cats need to own
their territory.

34
00:01:38,122 --> 00:01:40,120
If they don't own
their territory,

35
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:44,810
bad things will happen
to them or to you.

36
00:01:44,810 --> 00:01:47,460
So first we have
the confident owner

37
00:01:47,460 --> 00:01:50,370
of territory, the one
who walks in chest

38
00:01:50,370 --> 00:01:52,350
held high, tail in
that backwards question

39
00:01:52,350 --> 00:01:55,290
mark, everything
relaxed, comes up to you,

40
00:01:55,290 --> 00:01:57,180
gives you a little
head butt, weaving

41
00:01:57,180 --> 00:02:00,250
in and out of your legs,
blinky eyes at you,

42
00:02:00,250 --> 00:02:01,775
that kind of thing,
very confident.

43
00:02:01,775 --> 00:02:02,920
Now, who is that cat?

44
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,580
If they were a person,
you would come in

45
00:02:05,580 --> 00:02:08,660
at a party, a cocktail
party, knocking at the door.

46
00:02:08,660 --> 00:02:10,699
They open the door
with a tray of mojitos.

47
00:02:10,699 --> 00:02:12,540
And would you like
one of these mojitos?

48
00:02:12,540 --> 00:02:14,500
Cucumber, a little bit
of cucumber in here,

49
00:02:14,500 --> 00:02:16,000
I thought you'd
like that very much.

50
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,584
Welcome to my house.

51
00:02:17,584 --> 00:02:18,750
Don't you love it very much?

52
00:02:18,750 --> 00:02:19,250
Come on.

53
00:02:19,250 --> 00:02:20,180
I'll give you a tour.

54
00:02:20,180 --> 00:02:23,000
Mojito cat, that's
who mojito cat is.

55
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,350
Number two, Napoleon
cat, aka the over-owner,

56
00:02:27,350 --> 00:02:28,500
who is that cat?

57
00:02:28,500 --> 00:02:31,170
The chest out, a little bit
of the ears forward glaring

58
00:02:31,170 --> 00:02:33,700
at you a little
bit, eyes zeroing

59
00:02:33,700 --> 00:02:35,575
in on you just a
little, going down

60
00:02:35,575 --> 00:02:38,490
in that offensive,
aggressive posture,

61
00:02:38,490 --> 00:02:42,060
perhaps laying down across
the doorway of the house

62
00:02:42,060 --> 00:02:43,560
to make sure you've
got to step over

63
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,680
that line, peeing on things.

64
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,100
Yes, peeing, because
they don't trust

65
00:02:49,100 --> 00:02:51,400
their ownership
of the territory.

66
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,520
All whether they're
people or animals who

67
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,170
don't trust their
territory over-own, right?

68
00:02:58,170 --> 00:03:01,970
Hence Napoleon, or sort
of a gang mentality.

69
00:03:01,970 --> 00:03:03,930
You see the writing on the wall?

70
00:03:03,930 --> 00:03:05,190
I own this.

71
00:03:05,190 --> 00:03:06,740
Why does that come
out like that?

72
00:03:06,740 --> 00:03:08,050
Why you puff up like that?

73
00:03:08,050 --> 00:03:11,610
You do that, man, because
you are not confident

74
00:03:11,610 --> 00:03:13,540
that you own the joint.

75
00:03:13,540 --> 00:03:14,750
So you over-own.

76
00:03:14,750 --> 00:03:16,560
That is Napoleon Cat.

77
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,445
Number three, that
would be the wallflower.

78
00:03:20,445 --> 00:03:25,140
In cat world, the wallflower
literally hugs the wall.

79
00:03:25,140 --> 00:03:26,940
In the meantime, the
over-owner laying

80
00:03:26,940 --> 00:03:30,230
across the doorway, the mojito
cat just walking around,

81
00:03:30,230 --> 00:03:31,190
hey, how you doing?

82
00:03:31,190 --> 00:03:33,960
Then you've got The Wallflower
hanging back against the wall,

83
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,970
never walking across
the middle of the floor.

84
00:03:35,970 --> 00:03:36,969
That would never happen.

85
00:03:36,969 --> 00:03:40,140
In the meantime, they are
going, I don't own this.

86
00:03:40,140 --> 00:03:42,460
You, you, you're the owner?

87
00:03:42,460 --> 00:03:44,324
Fine, fine, I'm
not looking at you.

88
00:03:44,324 --> 00:03:44,990
I'm not looking.

89
00:03:44,990 --> 00:03:47,630
I'm just going to the
litter box over there.

90
00:03:47,630 --> 00:03:50,390
I'm just leaving, goodbye.

91
00:03:50,390 --> 00:03:51,810
That's the wallflower.

92
00:03:51,810 --> 00:03:54,870
Now, I want all cats
to be the mojito cat.

93
00:03:54,870 --> 00:03:56,450
That's what I strive for.

94
00:03:56,450 --> 00:03:59,560
If they are the over-owner,
if they are the wallflower,

95
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:00,700
we got problems.

96
00:04:00,700 --> 00:04:03,660
Cat Mojo 101, your
homework assignment

97
00:04:03,660 --> 00:04:06,200
is take a look at your cat.

98
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,600
Watch them walk into a room.

99
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,310
Watch them interact with
other cats and other humans.

100
00:04:10,310 --> 00:04:13,174
And figure out who they
are, who they resemble.

101
00:04:13,174 --> 00:04:14,590
If they're a
wallflower, we've got

102
00:04:14,590 --> 00:04:15,970
to bring them out a little bit.

103
00:04:15,970 --> 00:04:16,959
If they're an
over-owner, we've got

104
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:18,060
to bring them back a little bit.

105
00:04:18,060 --> 00:04:18,620
Why?

106
00:04:18,620 --> 00:04:21,970
Because we want everyone
to be the mojito cat.

107
00:04:21,970 --> 00:04:26,284
That is the quest, the
quest for the mojito cat.

108
00:04:26,284 --> 00:04:27,700
That's what we're
getting at here.

109
00:04:27,700 --> 00:04:29,030
But figure out who your cat is.

110
00:04:29,030 --> 00:04:31,940
Watch him walk around the
joint, because that's the thing.

111
00:04:31,940 --> 00:04:34,860
Do they display confident
ownership of territory?

112
00:04:34,860 --> 00:04:37,710
Are you encouraging your
cat to hunt, catch, kill,

113
00:04:37,710 --> 00:04:40,250
and eat through play
every single day?

114
00:04:40,250 --> 00:04:42,340
Are you feeling them a
bio-appropriate diet?

115
00:04:42,340 --> 00:04:44,180
Because that will
also feed in- ha ha

116
00:04:44,180 --> 00:04:48,670
no pun intended-- to that
healthy lifestyle of every cat.

117
00:04:48,670 --> 00:04:50,390
That's what you want
to be looking at.

118
00:04:50,390 --> 00:04:52,795
Until next time, do
take a look at all

119
00:04:52,795 --> 00:04:55,000

more information.

131

But, man, get that on your
calendar and do it now.

132
00:05:20,620 --> 00:05:21,990
Hey, I hope that helped.

133
00:05:21,990 --> 00:05:24,500
I hope you get the
concept of cat mojo

134
00:05:24,500 --> 00:05:27,240
even more so than before.

135
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:28,320
Take a look at your cats.

136
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,540
Remember every cat is an
individual, just like people

137
00:05:31,540 --> 00:05:35,700
and snowflakes, except there
is a place where we all start.

138
00:05:35,700 --> 00:05:38,450
And that's an important
thing to figure out, OK?

139
00:05:38,450 --> 00:05:44,400
Until next we meet, folks,
all light, all love, all mojo.

140
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:44,900
Love you.
