Its FRIDAY!! I am sorry posting has been late and light the last couple of weeks. Bad blogger I am! I have a few things in the works, including some how to videos on making cat trees (how to wrap the carpet, supplies, etc). I have completed most of the filming, hope to finish the [...]
When I announced to my husband a few weeks ago that I was going to build another cat tree, it was met with the usual playful grumble of “why do we need more cat stuff” (not necessarily that word), and maybe a note about not losing any fingers in the power tools. Since I tend [...]
Just wanted to drop an update on Dexter before the weekend. He has been on anti-inflammatory/pain meds for 2 weeks now. Right away on the meds he became his normal social talkative self again. Following me around, snooping for food, and always there for a meow in case someone wants to give him attention. On [...]
Well, after some arguing and redesigning things where needed, the tree finally be complete. (I think I freecycled their last tree a year ago, so its been long overdue) I am pretty sure they like it. The design worked perfect for Dexter and Cosmo who can both make it to the top (even with Dexter’s [...]
We are currently running a senior home for pets. 2 of our 3 dogs are 12 and up and both of them have various arthritic problems we are managing (and the non senior dog has seizures). Cosmo is almost 17 yrs old, Dexter just turned 14, and Bayou is probably pushing 12-13 yrs. Unfortunately Dexter [...]
After our cricket trials the other day, I decided to try something less, shall we say, living. The bug torture factor and the cleanliness of crickets did not win mom over on that whole idea. I picked up a Nano HEXBUG for about $5 dollars at the local store. Here is how that adventure went: [...]
SO, in the never ending quest to enrich my feline’s lives, I finally bought bugs for them. I decided to experiment with a few interesting options and new toys, the first being crickets (ugh). I am not super squeamish about bugs, but putting crickets purposely in my bathtub just seemed, well….wrong. But seeing as I [...]
I had a few funny clips from the weekend I put together for a Quick Clip Round Up. Even with lots of time outside on the porch in their portable pen and some crickets to play with in the tub (video of that soon), Mia always has plenty of energy for games in the evening. [...]
Busy Day + Cold Evening = Forced Feline Bonding by the Fire Dexter was not overly amused that I put a blanket out rather then divided beds to give him a bengal buffer zone. Might be the last fire of the season, Spring is here and so far no crazy spring snow storms like we [...]
I am hoping if I keep posting snow pics maybe folks will stop moving to Colorado…maybe?! The weather folks predicted snow flurries for that morning. I would like to penalize the weather man to come plow the 8 plus inches off my driveway I had to shovel as penance. Dexter is giving me the grump [...]
