Adorable Halloween Cat Mane (For Cats Who Wouldn’t Mind Wearing a Wig!)

By

Before going any further, obviously  if your cat has the type of temperament that would make him/her scared or embarrassed by a  Halloween costume, don’t even read the rest of this post! We have five indoor cats and only one of them would even think about allowing a cat Halloween costume on him. Two of the four girls would be scared it was going to eat them and the other two would be outraged that we’d even attempt such a thing!

Some cats tolerate the madness, others simply do not care for it. I would never ever (in a million years) suggest pushing a cat into something he/she doesn’t want to do. However, if you have a free spirit on your hand who’d enjoy it, go for it!

The adorable cat mane (Amazon link) pictured here is unbelievably cute. It comes in quite a few different colors, to match your own little wild animal.

Two of my grandkitties are beautiful black cats like the one pictured here. One of them (again, the boy) would be ALL for getting dolled up and having his picture taken. The girl would run and hide for days!

What is it about boy cats?? They’re almost always ready to party!

See cat mane (Amazon link) for a closer look. These are  absolutely adorable.

Gorgeous Outdoor Cat Condo (Cats Would LOVE This House!)

By

We have indoor cats and outdoor cats and love them all to distraction. The outside cats happen to come along after the indoor cats (all of which are adamant that no outsiders be brought in!), so they have resigned to living outside, claiming the patio and carport as their own.

Truth be told, they don’t have it bad at all – fresh air, plenty of sunshine, safe places to sleep, shelters to get in when it’s rainy or cold, and endless birds, squirrels, possums, and butterflies to keep them entertained. Our cats are pretty soft and lazy, so none of the aforementioned entertainment are in danger.

In addition to our cats (inside and outside), I feel, care for, love, AND name a colony of feral cats in the field next to our home. They have an old barn and even an unused shed to get into but my word would they love a house like the one shown here. I’d honestly like to get one for our carport AND one for my feral family of cats.

I’ll be totally honest here…. I think our inside cats would get as big of a kick out of this as the outside ones! In fact, if we had a basement or spare space, I’d absolutely get them one.

The Solid Wood Cat Condo (Amazon link) comes in natural (pictured) and in a great looking gray with white trim. They’re both gorgeous!

  • LARGE SOLID WOOD HOUSE: Constructed of fir wood with painting, this 2-floor cat house does no harm to you and your pets, and sturdy enough to hold up to 30kg/66lbs.

Inflatable Cat Halloween Decoration for the Yard: Look Out, Grandbabies, MiMi is Going ALL OUT!

By

This is amazing! We’ve been looking at a lot of different yard decorations for Halloween (nothing like having three grandbabies to make you want to go ALL OUT to amuse them!). This huge inflatable cat (Amazon link) has really caught my eye – as one would expect from a crazy cat lady, right?!

I can just see the little faces on our grandbabies (ages 1, soon to be 2, and 3… how wonderful is that?!) now. I think the middle baby (Jacoby) will want to climb on the cat and ride it!

This wonderful inflatable yard decoration actually lights up (and shakes!), which makes me love him even more.

Click through huge inflatable cat (Amazon link) to learn more about this great Halloween decoration – there are lots of other photos. I think you’re going to be as excited about this guy as I am.
