October is black cat awareness month. I’ve owned two black cats in the last few years. We had the late great Shadow and now we have Smokey. I don’t get why black cats have such a stigma to them. They are like other cats they can be crazy or goofy. They are loving Yes, there may be that odd black

As a cat owner of over 20 years, I’ve tried several litters. I’ve always gone back to clumping litter. I know it can be messy and dusty but it’s what works best for my cats. I’ve switched brands over the years buying what’s on sale or what has the best odor control. That being said I also try to find

On Tuesday, August 8th I had to say goodbye to my sassy orange Tabby. Sophie lived a good life but over the last few weeks, she’d been declining. Cats don’t always let on how they feel so it’s hard to tell when they are really sick. Sophie had been doing okay for a bit but last week we noticed that

Let’s face it no one ever said having a pet would be low-cost. That being said I found that buying a Litter Genie would be more cost-effective than having to use a ton of small bags every time I cleaned out the litter box.
