Around October 2014, my husband and I adopted an adorable gray and white kitten we named Arya. Around the same time, I started working from home as a writer. Sure, my timing could have been better.

With ten cats in the house, I should have plenty of opportunities to photograph them, but sadly that isn’t always the case. Only two rooms face south and get enough natural light for my taste, but then I’m stuck with the other problems of harsh sun and strong shadows. Very rarely do we get what […]

I was a college student when I met him. We were in sage country, near the town of Moses Lake. My Mom and I went on a walk one sunny afternoon, at a wilderness area. It was a beautiful day. The red-winged blackbirds were warbling in the cattails surrounding a little stream. We’d eaten at […]

So, unexpectedly and even having many other toys to choose from, Vitali’s favorite thing is a feather… I guess these felines have their personal way to choose what is the best toy! And what about your cats? Which one is their favorite toy? It’s the classic fake mouse, a feather, or a completely unusual one? […]

Who says that plants and cats can’t go well together? If you love cats and gardening, then worry no more, because you can have them both.

Many pets become ill or are injured and there is no National Health Service them, so an emergency visit to a veterinary practice with a sick or injured pet could be quite expensive and for this reason vets and nurses recommend […]
