The Cat Ladder addresses this need in a way that’s creative, functional, and beautiful – and their ladders work in spaces ranging from a small apartment to a large home.Continue Reading

Review: Morning in This Broken World

I’ve been a huge fan of Katrina Kittle ever since I first read The Blessings of the Animals, a beautifully written and plotted relationship drama with wonderful, multi-dimensional characters, both human and furry. I’ve since read all of Katrina’s books, and they’re all equally wonderful. Her new release, Morning in This Broken World, is not technically a cat book, but it does feature a lovable cat named Ox. Katrina is a consummate animal lover and mom to Annie, shown above, and a sweet Beagle named Serena.Continue Reading
Choosing Safe Cosmetics is Good for You and Your Cat
Using safe cosmetics without hazardous chemicals is not just better for you, it’s also better for your cats. Not only does your skin come in contact with those products, but so do your cat’s fur, paws, and mouth – and some of the chemicals used in conventional cosmetics can be harmful to both humans and cats.Continue Reading

Sunday Quotes: Worrying
Of all the habits I’ve been trying to break over the course of my life, worry seems to be the most difficult to eradicate, and lately, it’s gotten a little out of control again. I’m not fond of thunderstorms (maybe I was a cat in a prior life?) and I find myself getting anxious when the forecast calls for storms. And half the time, the storms never even materialize, reminding me over and over how useless worrying truly is.Continue Reading
Help the Maui Humane Society Help Pets Lost or Injured in the Fires
I can’t even wrap my mind around the devastation on parts of Maui. I think we’ve become somewhat numb to the constant coverage of disasters as they’re becoming ever more frequent thanks to the climate crisis, but there’s something about this one that is particularly shocking. I hope and pray that at least some pets survived, and they will need help. The Maui Humane Society is on the ground trying to save as many pets as they can.Continue Reading
Emergency Preparedness for Cats
Natural disasters are becoming more frequent. Wildfires, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, blizzards: any of these may force you to leave your home on short notice. Evacuating is often easier for dogs, and some may even consider it a fun adventure; simply clip on a leash and a dog will follow you anywhere.

It’s therefore crucial to have a cat-friendly emergency plan in place in the event you ever have to leave your home in a hurry. Continue Reading
