No sign of the female human… Let’s just get this blog post going without her!

The female human has been so distracted lately that not even DaBird or a laser dot pen could get her attention so we took matters into our own paws and have decided to blog without her this weekend… As if she’d even notice… We’re on her beloved computer right now and she doesn’t even realize it…

Hmmm, so what shall we meow about? Clearly we’re not going to bore you with a long and rambling post like she normally does… Give us a few minutes and I’m sure we’ll come up with something… Read more

As my series for the Hill’s Science Diet company comes to a close, if there is anything I have learned is that there is a huge variety of food options available for our cats and a wide opinion of what best to feed them. In my house, my cats are proverbial creatures of habit and that includes both the food they eat and the time they want it. Their schedule is so internally structured by them that I could set an alarm to their eating needs. 6:30 am is breakfast, 6:00 pm is dinner, and 9:00 pm is snack time. Food is both a means of sustenance to them as well as a strong component to the feline-human bond we share. Read more

When it comes to feeding options for our cats, not only can the choices available be dizzying, but the opinions as to what brand or type of food to feed them dizzying as well and conversations can often reach pitch levels that rival a political debate.

And so it begins… The “Real Men Love Cats” t-shirt as seen worn by Jackson Galaxy of My Cat From Hell. Photo courtesy of Kate Benjamin of Hauspanther.

Before I begin, lets just cut to the chase. I adore Toni Nicholson of RCTees, the t-shirt company forever immortalized by Jackson Galaxy of My Cat From Hell wearing the iconic “Real Men Love Cats” t-shirt. While there is no doubt she is a warm, loving, compassionate, and generous human being, especially when it comes to helping animal causes related to adoption, spay & neuter, and helping misplaced pets in disaster relief efforts, it is her wit and razor sharp comedic timing that keeps me coming back for more.

Sigh… sorry… When I told Peanut she could announce the winners of the Scaredy Cut Pet Home Grooming Kit, I forgot just how overly exuberant she can be, so I apologize if she yelled too loudly in anyone’s ears!!

Anyhow, without further ado, Peanut is thrilled to tell Vivian, Carma Poodale, and Susan Rizzo that they are the three lucky winners of a home grooming kit for their pet(s). While the drawing was random, Peanut said she still wanted to share the comments they left to try and win the prize because she thought it would be fun! And I have to admit, even though it means more typing and effort for me, I agree, so here you go! Read more
