Ohhh, happy birthday to your sweet fur baby. In the comments, people are wishing YoYo a happy third birthday, with one person saying, “Happy birthday Yoyooo!! Lots of love and treats and snuggles!” Someone else added, “Go YoYo! It’s your birthday! Happy birthday YoYo!!!! Welcome to our legion of cats Lupita!!! Viva Los Gatos!!” Another fan replied, “Ohhh, happy birthday to your sweet fur baby.”
Before filming A quiet place: Day One, Oscar-winning actress and movie star Lupita Nyong’o was not a cat fan. In the sci-fi/horror film, Nyong’o’s character has a cat named Frodo who acts as her emotional support and accompanies her to New York when the aliens invade. To work with her feline co-star in the film, Nyong’o used exposure therapy, which involves releasing cats in her home in her presence to help her overcome her fear. It must have worked, considering she’s now the most loving cat mom ever.
It is always so much fun to celebrate a pet’s birthday, but maybe you want a less festive approach when celebrating your cat’s special day.

Of course, there are many cat owners who throw a huge birthday party for their cat’s big day, but since cats are more reserved than dogs, it might not be a bad idea to make the celebration a little smaller.
A birthday photoshoot like Nyong’o’s is a very cute idea and won’t freak out any cat.
It’s also fun to buy them some new toys at the pet supply store.
You can bake a special cat-friendly cake. You can find numerous recipes on the Internet.
One of the best ways to celebrate your cat’s birthday is to make a donation in their name to the shelter you adopted them from! Happy birthday to your very special fur baby!
