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!

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

Channel your creative side for a chance to win a trip to BlogPaws!

I am a proud BlogPaws 2016 Conference Ambassador and am being compensated for my assistance in promoting the BlogPaws Conference. But I can assure you with every cat hair fiber of my being I would adore BlogPaws to the moon and back regardless of whether or not I was an ambassador and all opinions shared in this blog are mine.

BlogPaws, BlogPaws, BlogPaws. It’s something you’re going to hear me talking about a lot in the months ahead as we get closer to the 2016 conference that will be held this year at the gorgeous Sheraton Wild Horse Pass Resort & Spa on June 23 – 25. But when it comes to the BlogPaws or Bust Contest that’s just been unveiled, I’m not just going to talk about it, I’m going to dust off my cat ears and shout about it! Read more

It’s great when male and female cats get along, but it’s even better if they are spayed and neutered!

While Valentine’s Day is typically thought of in terms of red roses, hearts, chocolates, and romantic forays between lovers, I think of it in not only those terms, but  in terms of responsibility. Honestly, what better gift of love than helping to ensure cat overpopulation does not continue to escalate by practicing responsible spay/neuter? Maybe then, shelters and rescues that are overflowing with cats and kittens would have a better chance of having them all adopted into loving furever homes. Read more

Happy 7th Birthday to three of my favorite felines – Rolz, Mia, and Peanut

I remember the day like it was yesterday – Zoey was pregnant and nearly bursting at the seams. She came into my bedroom early on the morning of February 12, 2009, to wake me up to let me know she wanted me to be with her. It was still pitch dark and I grabbed my robe to follow her into the living room where I curled up with her on the couch. Her silky body was toasty warm and she tucked herself into the crook of my belly, purring up a loud storm. Read more
