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

August 9, 2021 By Joi

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.

Cat Dad Gift Ideas for Father’s Day!

May 29, 2021 By Joi

We all know that some children are covered with hair and some are covered with skin. Some (eventually) walk on two legs, others walk, run, and scamper on four. Some have whiskers, some do not.
Some will go to school, learn to drive, and start dating… while others save you the heartbreak and heartache of such things!

Make no mistake about it, though, our children are OUR children and we love them with all that’s within us.

The following is a roundup of gift ideas for cat dads. I apologize that I never got a gift roundup done for cat moms – I cracked some ribs and bruised others right before Mother’s Day and have, since then, simply been trying to find ways to move and sit that didn’t hurt. Even breathing hurts!

Fortunately, the pain is far better now and I can at least get this roundup done. Each link is an Amazon link (where I do almost all of my online shopping).

THE Best Cat Litter Box Scoop (Trust Me, I’ve Tried them All!)

March 15, 2021 By Joi

The Best Cat Litter Scoop

The Best Cat Litter Scoop!

The DuraScoop Metal Cat Litter Scoop (Amazon link), pictured here, is the most recent “favorite thing” I’m recommending to everyone I know… well, to all the ones I know with cats that is!

I am the not-necessarily proud owner of a very irritable right elbow. I honestly don’t know if it would be called arthritis, tennis elbow, bursitis, or some term I’ve never even heard of. I do know why it’s as temperamental as it is, however. You see, I played softball all summer every summer from the time I was 8 to the time I was 18. What’s more, I played (mostly) third base and I also pitched.

When I made a throw from my position at third base to first base, I would almost always throw side-arm. It was instinctive for me because that’s how the ball would get over there the fastest and throwing runners out was a natural high for me. My dad (who was also my coach for several years) always told me that I was going to hurt my arm. Basically he begged me (and worked relentlessly with me) to throw it over the top of my shoulder. I could do it and the ball got to its destination. Heck, in practice as well as in our back yard, I was an “over the top” throwing magician!

And then…. well… then came game-time and you guessed it… I would go right back to my old ways because it got there faster.  I gave my poor dad that same answer each and every time he asked me why I did it.

It gets there faster!

So, it turns out he was right. The damage done to my elbow finally caught up with me and each time it hurts, I glance Heaven-ward and say, “You were right… but… it did get there faster.”

I can almost FEEL him rolling his eyes!

If you have a bad elbow, wrist, or hand, you’ll be glad to know I have found the perfect litter scoop. Heck, even if your body parts are generally in a great mood, you’ll still love this scoop. Why? It does all the work for you!

(Continued Below…)

Best Cat Litter Scoop

DuraScoop: The Best Litter Scoop You Can Buy

The handle is absolutely brilliant – it fits your hand beautifully and is easily the most comfortable cat litter scoop I’ve ever used.

Product Description:

  • The ONLY end-to-end all-aluminum litter scoop on Amazon, patented design.
  • Solid metal handle with comfortable molded rubber coating. Don’t accept inferior partially-plastic substitutes.
  • Jumbo size yet amazingly light in the hand.
  • Ergonomically balanced with center of gravity toward user’s wrist.
  • Mirror finish, not plated, coated or painted – will not rub off! Corrosion resistant – will not rust.
  • Multi-cat tested for over 15 years and counting. Designed and sold in the USA.

I’m the primary litter box scooper in my family. It isn’t that no one else would do it, I simply prefer to do it, myself, because I’m one of those annoying people who’s convinced they do everything the “right” way and someone else might just come up short. I don’t at all mind the chore – caring for my furry babies is enjoyable for me, even when it comes to the litter boxes.

The only problem is that it would often cause my elbow to hurt – especially if it happened to be flaring up at the time.

Last year, my youngest daughter bought the litter scoop you see here for me and it changed the whole game. I once bragged about it to my husband by saying that this particular scoop does all the work for me – all I have to do is show up!

I’ve used it faithfully for many months, now, and it still looks brand new. That’s when you know something was made exceptionally well.

It’s beautiful to look at and I’m crazy about the handle. It’s so perfectly comfortable! The metal scoop makes it 100 times easier to scoop than the plastic ones. It’s just amazing the difference this beautiful,  well-made, ingenious litter scoop makes.

I’ve noticed something else – my elbow hasn’t hurt in a very, very long time. While I’m not even remotely saying that this scoop will cure anyone’s ailments, I am saying this – apparently cleaning litter boxes didn’t just aggravate my elbow… it may have been the very thing causing the flare ups. With four (inside) cats and three litter boxes, I’d say that would have been a very real possibility.

If you don’t have any elbow or even wrist issues, I highly recommend the DuraScoop Metal Cat Litter Scoop (Amazon link) because it’s the best cat litter scoop on the market. If you DO have an elbow or wrist issue, I downright beg you to give this amazing scoop a try.

It might just change your whole game, too!

Ridiculously Cute Cat Face Storage Basket

November 15, 2020 By Joi

Here’s another one of those gift ideas for cat lovers that I want for myself as well as other cat lovers in my family!

This large, adorable Woven Rope Storage Basket (Amazon link) would be perfect for laundry, towels, linens, toys, clothes… you name it. While it could find a million and one uses around the house, I think I like the idea of it being a toy bin as much as anything.

And what a cute one, at that!

This cutie comes in beige (pictured on the right), black, brown, and gray. I love that the cats ears are designed to be handles as well as ears. So cute!

  • Dimensions: 15.7″ L×13″ W×13.4″ H
  • Washable: Best way to clean the rope basket is spot wash with warm water and dry in the sun or near a radiator. Stubborn stains can be removed with a little baking soda paste and warm water. Hot water will shrink the cotton
  • Material: 100% ECO cotton with no bad chemical smell, it is good for you and your family health. Please put your things in the woven rope basket with an easy mind.

Take a closer look at the Woven Rope Storage Basket (Amazon link) – you’re going to love all the colors.

Beautiful Photo Frame for Cat Lovers (Perfect Gift Idea!)

November 3, 2020 By Joi

I am in love with this beautiful photo frame for cat lovers (Amazon link). Not only is it a gorgeous gift idea… it speaks the absolute truth!

The eye-catching 12 x 8 Inch Cat Lover Picture Frame comes with choices for displaying – it includes a string to hang on the wall or you can simply stand it on any flat surface.

The well-made quality picture frame takes a 6 x 4 inch photo, making it a breeze to personalize for a great gift for any cat lover. If you have a photo of the cat lover in question, you could even have it placed in the frame before you gift it to them.

Either photo of the cat they love or one of them holding the cat.. either would be perfect and very appreciated.

See photo frame for cat lovers (Amazon link) for more information. This one is really, really lovely.

Face Masks for Cat Lovers at Christmas!

November 1, 2020 By Joi

I’m sure, like me, you’re wearing your mask like a smart, compassionate person. After all, we cat lovers are the best humans! I just saw these wonderfully fun, colorful, festive Christmas Masks on Amazon and had to come blog about them.

Not only are they ideal for wearing to help slow the spread of Covid, they can assuredly help keep you safer from other winter ugliness like colds.

But something extra occurred to me as I was looking at the different masks… what a wonderful keepsake this would make. Granted, most of us will be ready to fling all reminders of the Coronavirus once it’s a thing of the past (though, let’s face it, this isn’t in the very near future) – but how wonderful would this mask be in future Christmases… a reminder to be very, very thankful for all we once pretty much took for granted… healthy, family get-togethers, and normalcy.

I miss normalcy so much!

These beautiful, washable and reusable Christmas masks for cat lovers (Amazon link) are available on Amazon. They’re perfect for early Christmas gifts as well as for wearing, yourself.

Hmmm, my cold-natured self just thought of how wonderful these will be at helping to keep the mouth and nose warm! Each winter, my asthma makes it necessary to always wear a scarf around my face (breathing the cold air is just begging for trouble)… these could even help with that.

I’m seriously just falling more and more in love with these masks the more I think about them.

  • Soft & Skin-friendly: This design conforms to the face, fully fits the face, high-quality fabric is light and soft, skin-friendly. 

Take a closer look at these beautiful Christmas masks for cat lovers (Amazon link).
