Gorgeous Gray Cat Bed (LOVE THIS!)

September 16, 2019 By Joi

I have recently become infatuated with the color gray (grey.. whichever spelling you prefer!). There’s just something kind of “ritzy” and sophisticated about it. Furniture, walls, towels,dishes… you name it, I suddenly want it to be gray!

So you can imagine my goggle-eyed reaction when I saw this handsome Gray and White Cat Bed/House on Amazon earlier. I had one cat in my lap and one on my computer desk and I told them both, “This one’s going into the cart!”

They acted like they cared, but since it didn’t involve tuna, their reaction was very low-key.

Cat Tree Haven: Great Gift Idea that Might Save Your Christmas Tree

September 12, 2019 By Joi

One of our cats recently had kittens so, needless to say, we’re already thinking about how “interesting” Christmas will be this year. The gifts, bows, gift tags, ornaments, candy canes, and shiny decorations throughout the house are going to be fascinating enough for these little balls of energy, but I have a feeling the Christmas tree might prove to be a nightmare.

How do you keep a tree standing when three little toddlers with fur are intent on bringing it down?!

When I saw this amazing Cat Haven Condo on Amazon earlier, I was struck with an idea… diversion! I mean it often works for children who walk on two legs, why not children who walk… make that RUN… on four?!

Cat condo designed for cats up to 32 pounds in weight. Easy to assemble cat furniture, less than 15 minutes, no tools required.
Cat tree house intended for indoor use, fits great in any room.
Cat tower perfect for jumping, scratching, climbing, and relaxing.
Made from pressed wood, carpet and artificial leaves, great for cats’ innate instinct of hiding within nature. Made in USA and Imported.
Square base, 24 inches covered with artificial turf and 3 carpeted perches 22, 22 and 18 inches in diameter.

Double-Decker Cat Tree and Tree House

August 17, 2017 By Joi

The great-looking FurHaven Double-Decker Cat Tree pictured above is everything I love about a cat tree – it’s beautiful, provides plenty of fascinating things to keep a cat’s interest, and (best of all) is extra sturdy and safe.

The tower is covered with soft, plush fabric and two cat houses (or rooms?) are featured. Kind of like an upstairs and a downstairs.

Posts covered with sisal rope for scratching and scratch training – making it a cat tree, 2 cat houses, and multiple scratching posts all in one!
Spring ball wand toy, hanging ball, and hanging mouse toy – all of us cat parents know what hits these are with inquisitive cats.

See FurHaven Double-Decker Cat Tree for more information. This one’s just extra special

Gorgeous Red and White Outdoor Cat Condo

May 25, 2017 By Joi

The beautiful red outdoor cat condo pictured above is probably the next thing I order from Amazon. I just absolutely love it! It’s so cute I think I’d want it in my yard even if I didn’t have outside cats.

Heck, if I could find the right spot, I’d want one for our inside cats as well.

Weatherproof cat/small dog house for outdoor use.
Fit large cats or small dogs. Inner dimension of the house:27.5″Lx17.5″Wx20″H
Easy to assemble with pre-drilled holes.
Bottom floor can be removed for easier cleaning,top roof cannot be opened.
Ideal shelter for outdoor cats or small dogs.

One of our outdoor cats (a beautiful orange cat named “Rita Hayworth”) loves to hang out on our back deck – in a different spot from the other outside cats. I’m thinking she’d love this crib!

This adorable little home would be ideal for feral cats, too. They’d greatly appreciate the wonderful place to stay dry and safe.

How to Keep Outside Cats Warm this Winter

September 23, 2012 By Joi

While we have one inside cat (Alexa the Diva), we also have two beloved outside cats (Hannah and Queen Fatima). Needless to say, when cold weather hits, thoughts of keeping our outside little girls warm are in the front of our collective minds. We live outside the city limits with a garage and an abandoned barn beside us. Fatima is wonderful about heading off to the garage (which we keep cracked for them to get in and out of) or even the barn, but Hannah?

She always seems afraid that she’s going to miss something and doesn’t leave the carport until snow, ice, hail, or a tornado force her into the garage. Even then, as soon as the coast is clear, she’s back to her favorite spot by the back door!

If Alexa weren’t so set in her ways, the solution would be obvious – bring them inside. But, alas, Alexa claims “First come, first served” rights and there you have it. She who must be obeyed…. must be obeyed.

Don’t worry about Miss Hannah, though. I have become quite the accomplished tent builder for my adorable little girl. Last winter was ridiculously mild here in Kentucky, so my Abdul the Tent-maker skills served Hannah well. However, I’ve heard that this winter is supposed to be a really bad one, so I’m trying to step up my game.

One of the things I’ve found so far is the Slumber Pet Thermal Cat Mat – Color Gray (shown above). This thermal mat is available in gray, blue, or beige.

Thermal Cat Bed Features:

Thermal cat mat keeps cats warm and comfortable without the use of electricity
This cozy mat features a lightweight core that actually reflects pet’s own body heat back to the animal
Provides soothing comfort to cats, kittens, aging pets, nursing females, or animals recovering from illness or injury
Machine-washable pad features a leopard-print motif that reverses to solid black berber fleece and it includes a hangtag
Measures 22-inch length by 18 1/2-inch width

I also found the K&H Outdoor Kitty House, Heated (pictured on the left – click through for different… much larger… views). This Outdoor Heated Kitty House is made with 600 denier nylon and features a vinyl backing that makes it waterproof.

Your cat’s own warm little house comes with and accommodates a Lectro Soft Outdoor Heated Kitty Bed that uses only 20-watts. The roof hangs over the 2 doors to keep cats warm, safe and dry. Easy to assemble with velcro walls and a zippered roof.

My favorite part (aside from the whole keeping cats warm and dry part) is this: There’s a back door! Two exits mean your cat can’t be trapped by another cat, a dog that likes to play too tough, or skunk that wants to snuggle.

Outdoor Heated Cat House Features:

Perfect for any outdoor cat
Waterproof for use anywhere outdoors
Two exits so pet can not be trapped by predators
No tools needed to assemble
MET Listed and 1-year warranty

If you’re like us, you probably have outside cats as well as inside cats. Keeping outside cats warm during the winter is always something we put a lot of thought and effort into. We’re lucky enough to have a garage, but for the most part, our outside cats STILL prefer the car port… or as they more appropriately call it, home.

Fortunately, great cat loving companies continue to outdo one another when it comes to keeping cats warm. Products like the Outdoor Heated Cat Camper with Heated Pad, shown here, help keep our babies warm while giving us more peace of mind.

Outoor Cat House Keeps Outdoor Cats Warm and Dry

November 10, 2011 By Joi

What’s the best way to keep outdoor cats warm and dry during winter months (and safe and cozy year round)? With their own cat house, of course! The great looking The new and improved Kitty Tube. Fully insulated outdoor cat house., shown here, is the perfect solution.

Winters here in Kentucky can be pretty intense, so keeping our outside cats warm and dry is always a concern. It is of no concern to our inside cat, Alexa, so she has yet to extend them an invitation to join us inside.

The past few days have been not only cool, but extremely windy. This great looking insulated cat house would have been IDEAL. Hannah hates the wind as much as most cats hate rain. The problem with Hannah is one a lot of cat parents run into, she wants to be close to the spot(s) she’s most familiar with. In her case, it’s the carport. Her favorite outdoor furniture is there, her dishes are there, and (naturally) that’s where she sees her family the most.

When it gets cooler (and windy), I carry her out to the garage and show her around – trying to entice her into sleeping in there. My husband keeps the door open just enough for them to come and go as they please. Queen Fatima and Jelly Bean love the garage. They head for the loft and sleep for hours on end.

Then there’s Hannah. Yesterday I kept looking out and seeing her hovering by the steps, cursing the wind. It called for drastic action, so I fashioned a tent over a few outdoor chairs and placed her a blanket on the ground inside her tent. She practically ran inside. Naturally, this earned her some of her favorite cat treats.

This ingenious cat house would be the answer to our problems. Read and see for yourself how great it sounds!

Product Features

The Kitty Tube provides an economical, safe, and secure home for up to 3 cats. The Kitty Tube’s unique door design will also protect your cat from predators.
The Kitty Tube includes a custom, machine washable pet bed on top of the fully insulated floor. The floor, walls, and roof are all insulated with a high quality, high R value insulation. The Kitty Tube will stay cool in the summer, and is ultra warm in the winter. (Style of the custom pet bed may vary.)
The built in lifting handles can be adjusted to supply full flow through ventilation for the summer, and can be closed to retain heat in the winter.
The Kitty Tube is made from 100% post consumer content, consisting of recylced milk and detergent bottles. The Kitty Tube is an extremely green product, and proudly made in the USA.
