Respect the Cat – All Day, Every Day!

Ways to show your cat you respect them for Respect Your Cat Day

You know you respect me… How is it possible not to, afterall, I’m a cat…

Zoey here. Here we go again with another one of those human invented days on behalf of us kitties. Respect Your Cat Day. *Sigh* While we do appreciate the thought, do I really need to point out the obvious? You know, like everyday should be Respect Your Cat Day, or Hug Your Cat Day, or Love Your Cat Day, or Appreciate Your Cat Day. Let’s face it. Since you’re reading this blog, I know you’re a cat lover. And I also know you know there is no room for debate. Us cats rule not only the world, but we rule your hearts, your bed, your furniture, and just about every and anything else you can think of. Of course you respect us, how could you not? Read more

National Poison Prevention Week – Tips to Keep Your Cat Safe for Easter and Spring Cleaning

Chocolate bunnies and cellophane grass can hurt a cat if ingested

An Easter basket might seem harmless enough, but to a cat it is lurking with dangerous foods and items that could harm them.

With Easter only a few days away many of us will be celebrating the holiday. Many of us will also be gearing up for some spring cleaning as the weather starts to warm up and so it seemed appropriate to share a post on behalf of National Poison Prevention Week (March 20 – 26). We certainly don’t want to think a celebration or some cleaning could harm our kitties, but the truth is, cats are naturally curious and many common items inside and outside of our house can be toxic to them (and dogs and other animals as well). Without knowing what these items are, or what the symptoms can be, it could result in a serious illness or even death to our beloved pet if we don’t react accordingly. Read more

Happy St. Catrick’s Day to our Cat Loving Friends!

I think Jazmine makes the purr-fect red-headed lass for St. Catrick’s Day, don’t you? It’s unlikely she actually has Irish roots, but she’s the kind of cat that’s always ready for a celebration!! Just like all my kitties, she’s been blessed with the luck of a warm, safe, and loving home with everything she could ever want or desire (except possibly more chicken).

In that spirit, I wish you all blessings and purrs today and may the luck of the Irish be with you too!

Celebrate Reading with Cats Wearing Hats for Dr. Seuss’s Read Across America Day!

Dr. Seuss Read Across America Day is a great way to teach children about the joys of reading.

Cats, hats, books, reading, and Dr. Seuss – it truly doesn’t get much better and that’s why today is one of my favorite days! Click image to enlarge.

When it comes to me and my life, a cat on my lap will more than suffice.

A cat on my lap with a good book to read, I can tell you honestly that’s all I really need.

A cat on my lap for me to pet, I really would be absolutely set!

Perhaps a cup of espresso too, if you wouldn’t mind, thank you.

And while you’re at it, if it’s not too much trouble, could you rush it and make it a double?

That’s all for now, my leg is asleep, the cat won’t move and I don’t dare make a peep… Read more
