10 Ways to Make Your Cat Smile
1. Like a genie in a bottle, you gotta rub her the right way. Namely, the spots she can’t reach herself. My cats look like the picture of ecstasy when their rubbed under the chin, around their cheeks and at the base of their tails………….
Beloved Older Cats
The diva above is our much, much, much beloved Prissy. She’ll be 18 in September - and, yes, I know how old that is in human years but won’t allow myself to think about it……
Svenn’s Dramatic Moment with a Racoon
The cat is above all things, a dramatist……Svenn most certainly lives up to…
Svenn and Alexa Picture
Svenn and Alexa have been buddying up alot lately. Thankfully Alexa’s “fixed” or we’d have Svenn kitties all over the place. (He fancies himself a ladies man.) For some reason Bo has decided he has little use for Svenn, so he hisses at him whenever he lays eyes on him - even if it’s half a mile away. Methinks Svenn just annoys Bo for some reason. Adam has no problem with Svenn….but then again Adam’s so laid back he doesn’t have a problem with anything or anyone - unless they got between him and food!

Dog (and Cat) Days of Summer
I love living in an area of the country (Kentucky) where we have four distinct seasons. Each one has its own traits and characteristics that make it special. And just when I think I can say which of the four is my favorite (like autumn with all its apple cider, pumpkins, and falling leaves), I remember something amazing about another season (like spring with its lemonade, daffodils, and budding leaves). Or summer with grilling out, St. Louis Cardinal’s baseball, and gladiolas…. Or, winter with its hot chocolate, Christmas music, and NFL!….
