In grandeur so magnificent you stand, More dignified in splendor than a lion; I muse on pyramids, and on Orion, And endless empires lost in realms of sand. An empress gazing over all her land, And of the Sphynx himself a sacred scion, You render glorious anything you lie on, And turn an armchair into […]

Of course, kitties can eat cat food, mice, little birdies, and insects. Apart from those feline’s natural diets, our fur babies do love to try human foods out of curiosity while we are eating. They will not stop meowing until we let them chomp a piece. We also share easily in most cases. For that […]

Going away and leaving your beloved cats (and other pets!) can be stressful. You could put them into pet boarding, but might then worry about how they’re coping in a strange environment. Another option is to ask a friend or neighbour to pop in and feed them, but how often will they come in? Will […]

Donner’s Nocturnal (Mis)Adventure Some cats really love to explore the area around where they live and often bring back little souvenirs for their owners. If you’re lucky, it could just be discarded toy or slipper presented as a trophy won after a night of prowling around the neighbourhood. If you’re not so lucky it might […]

My cats’ choice of mind-altering substances: catnip – definitely silver vine – not bad valerian – wowwwwww-w-w-w-w … Valerian? Nope, it isn’t a planet in Star Trek, but a plant.

Standard sizing for collars doesn’t tend to cater for big beauties such as Maine Coons, British Shorthairs, Savannah Cats, Ragdolls and other naturally plus size felines, let alone offer them in luxury styles to please the pampurred puss.
