Am I cleaning out cat litter boxes or a barn?

Cleaning the litter boxes in a multi cat household isn’t for the faint of heart, or one who is accustomed to living in the city with all of its civilized charm. If you don’t have the down home, generations-honed discipline of a farmer to perform daily, laborious, and inevitably bile-rising duties, then I strongly suggest [...]

Happy Mommy Cat Day!

Happy Mother’s Day to all of you Mommies! And, a Happy Mommy Cat Day to all of your mommy kitties! Reina is my one mommy cat in the HOP clowder. And she is a very sweet mommy cat. Even though her kittens will be seven years old in July, she’s still a good mommy. Well, [...]

Cats And Virgos Love The Status Quo

At times when all of the cats are napping, and the house is quiet, I’ll look around my house and question why I’m so attracted to cats.

Since December of last year, it seems that my cats might be the victims of an owner suffering from this psychiatric disease; the illnesses, the endless vet visits, and the all-too-frequent posts about the cat’s physical turmoil do suggest that I [...]

First Night Apart. Ever.

Last weekend, Ariel took a turn for the worse. The change in her was quick. The difference in her is like night and day. She has become listless and has vomited up a bit of blood. Our vet is truly puzzled since none of the tests he has performed have come up positive for anything. [...]

It’s Only a Cat

“It’s only a cat.” Have you ever had an insensitive person say this to you after your cat has died? I have. And, I think it’s the worst sentiment that’s ever been expressed to my face. Well, it comes in at number two. The worst sentence ever uttered to me was when I had lost [...]
