Look at the world though the wonderment of a cat’s perspective. It’s an awe-inspiring beautiful place that we should be thankful for each and every day.

Our earth is a beautiful entity that sustains our very being – it’s a precious gift to live in such an incredible world and I feel the same about cats that grace this earth – they are a precious gift that bring joy, love, and companionship into our lives. So for Earth Day, I thought it would be appropriate to share some ways that we can recycle stuff to make practical things for not just our own cats, but cats in shelters that could use our love and support.  Read more

Happy 8th Birthday to my darling Zoey – my gorgeous Bengal girl and feline love of my life!

But a mere minute ago (or so it seems), I was on my way home with the feline love of my life sitting inches away from me in her well-appointed cat carrier, claws frantically trying to find a way out and screaming at the top of her lungs like a large and ferocious wildcat of the jungle to be freed from her prison.

Once again – exciting news in the world of pet blogging! Nominations are open for the 2016 BlogPaws Pet Blogging Nose-to-Nose Social Media Awards. This is exciting for a variety of reasons, most of which is quality and striving for personal excellence for those of us that blog on a regular basis.

March 29 is Declaw Awareness Day – Please take a moment to read and share the facts on declawing.

Cats are declawed for a variety of reasons – primarily to prevent them from sharpening their claws on furniture and household items. What many people might not realize is that declawing is actually an invasive procedure that involves the amputation of each of the ten front toes of the cat’s paws (something that would be equivalent to us losing the entire tip of every finger at the first knuckle) and can cause serious, lifelong changes to the cat.

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
