I’m not a football fan. I may watch part of the game for the commercials, but that’s about it. However, since I believe that there are spiritual lessons in everything, I spent some time thinking about whether there might be any spiritual lessons from football and the Big Game today.Continue Reading

It’s probably a safe bet that most of us have bought a cat bed, only to find that our cats either don’t like it at all, or only like it for a brief period of time.

This post is sponsored by Sleepyod
Does your cat love her cat carrier? If you’re like the majority of cat parents, your answer will be “no.” Most cats are leery of the carrier, especially if trips to the vet are the only time they need to be in it.

Evolution of a Lap Cat
I think it’s safe to say that most of us want our cats to cuddle with us, let us hold them, and sit on our lap. But just because a cat is not a lap cat doesn’t mean that she’s not affectionate. Cats show affection in any number of ways, through purring, head butting, cheek rubbing or grooming us. And then there’s the slow “I love you” blink, guaranteed to melt your heart.Continue Reading

In Heavenly Headbutts: Reflections of Hope about Cats and Eternity, Allia Zobel Nolan offers photos, scripture, quotes, affirmations and anecdotes that support her belief that we will see our cats again in the afterlife.Continue Reading
