August 10, 2011 By Joi

Free Shipping. Kitty Face Cat House-2 Round Beds & Cradle-Brown - by Munro  - 2832Brown

Okay, don’t even try to tell me you’ve seen a better looking cat tree/cat house because I’ll have to raise an eyebrow and give you a sarcastic and skeptical, “Oh. Have you now?”

The Kitty Face Cat House-2 Round Beds & Cradle-Brown – by Munro (with free shipping) is extra special – the sort of cat tree and house your pampered cat has come to expect.

Product Description:
Think you don’t have room for another cat? Think again! You and your cats will be glad to see the friendly face on this cat play house. This piece of cat furniture has two cradles, a round loft bed, and of course – the kitty face play tunnel. Cats love the loft bed – it gives them a high place to perch and snooze. You cat can jump from tunnel to cradle, or just stretch out and enjoy the view! Not only is this a terrific cat lounger, it also is a scratching post. A solid pine pole is wrapped in all-natural sisal rope, which provides an outlet for busy paws. Available in nine colors – Cream, Tan, Brown, Red, Navy Blue, Country Blue, Green, Gray, and Hunter Green. With such a range of colors, you’re sure to find one for even your most finicky of felines. And remember – not only do cats love having their own area, but a good scratching post will deter your cat from scratching your furniture! This item ships directly from the manufacturer. Product usually arrives in 4-10 business days, depending on destination, including order processing and shipping.

I’m just head over heels in love with this. Think of the years of fun your cat(s) will have with the and click through for more information!

Three Foot Tall Cat House for the Pampered Kitty!

June 9, 2011 By Joi

3 Foot Cat House

The 3 Foot Cat House, shown above, is a cat house to end all cat houses!

Literally 3 feet in height, it offers limitless fun and adventure for your feline kids.

This piece of quality furniture is perfect for your cats (and even small dogs, with the cat’s permission) to play in, on and around. Load with a sisal rope post, cat house and top cat perch. It’s sturdy, built to last, and even features a dangling toy to entertain any cat.

I can picture Alexa sleeping inside the house section, as well as using the scratching post part. Prissy would have chosen the very top level because she LOVED to get up high (in her younger days, that is!). She’d get a special kick out of getting on top of the refrigerator and surprising me when I walked into the kitchen. Alexa, on the other paw, isn’t that fascinated with heights but she does love to get inside boxes, cat houses, and other small places.

I’ve noticed that she’s especially fond of these spots right before a big storm. It’s as though she’s wired to instinctively seek shelter… even though she’s an inside cat!

To take a closer look at this gorgeous 3 Foot Cat House, just click the link. While on the website, look around at all of the other wonderful cat toys, cat furniture, scratching posts, and so on.

It’s never too early to do a little Christmas shopping. Your cat told me to point that out.

Beautiful Outdoor Cat House: The KatKabin

January 6, 2011 By Joi

If you’re familiar with me at all, you know that I have 5 cats. One (Alexa) is an indoor diva and the other four (Hannah, Bullet, Jelly Bean, and Queen Fatima) are outside cats.  Alexa – who was “here first” as she likes to remind the others – will not even consider allowing the others to get so much as one paw through the door.  Fortunately, these outside babies don’t seem to mind the arrangement.  No doubt if they did show interest in coming in out of the weather, I’d have to have a long, hard talk with little Miss Alexa.

We live outside the city limits, on a large piece of land.  There is actually an old barn, as well as a garage (my husband keeps the door cracked for them to come and go, then cleans it out when spring hits…. sigh, I love him).  When Bo and Svenn were alive, they absolutely loved the garage.  They could be found sleeping up in the loft even in the summer!  Bullet is also big on the garage and when the weather is particularly cold or stormy, off he goes.  Jelly Bean likes to go back and forth between the garage and the barn.

Odd that he’s the only one (of the many, many, many cats we’ve had over the years) to seek warmth and refuge in the barn.

HOWEVER, my little outside girls (Hannah and Fatima) will not head for the garage unless it’s storming or snow is on the ground.  No matter how cold it gets, they see no need to leave the carport.  I always make them a little tent in the corner – with many thick covers and blankets draped over a few lawn chairs.  When it isn’t too cold, all 4 cats can be found in their tent!  Yet I always wanted something more – another warm option for them….

…something like a little house.

Ironically enough, I had been thinking about this situation when I got an e-mail asking if I’d like a KatKabin to review for Cat-Pause.com.  I was thrilled to accept and watched for its delivery daily.

When the KatKabin arrived, Alexa and I anxiously opened the box.  The KatKabin was bigger and even prettier than I had hoped for!  They sent me a beautiful hot pink version and Alexa couldn’ t take her eyes off of it.  I put it on the ground – without the little removable door on the front – to see if she’d go in.  She’s kind of an odd duck about things like that, so I was skeptical.  However, she marched right in, turned around and laid down on the soft little pad it comes with!

Unfortunately for her, I had the KatKabin in mind for the outside kids – after all, she has a heated home with warm couches and warm beds!  I hauled the beautiful little KatKabin outside for the fearless foursome to inspect.  It was a chilly day but not cold enough to send the boys off to the barn or garage.  Jelly Bean was the first one to try out the KatKabin.  He actually took up residence for about an hour before the others got a shot at it!  Bullet’s snide, mocking looks (imagine, a tough guy cat lounging in a hot pink cabin) didn’t faze him. He just went to sleep in his comfortable surroundings.

The minute Jelly Bean left the KatKabin (nature called), Queen Fatima (a very small, adorable, fragile gray cat – she’s the spitting image of her feral cat mom, Ming Li) went in. Since we lost Ming Li (I loved that little eccentric cat!), Queen Fatima looks at Hannah as her mother – something that Hannah endures with great humor.  The fact that she separated from Hannah long enough to try out the KatKabin kind of caught us all off guard.

Over the course of the day, all of the cats took turns with the KatKabin. At one point, Fatima and Hannah were in there at once. Fatima looked blissfully happy but Hannah looked like she could use a big old helping of “ME time.”

Even on the coldest days, when I stick my hand into the KatKabin, I’m amazed at how much warmer it is in there.  The cat’s body heat sort of creates a little sauna. When the weather isn’t overly cold (we’ve actually enjoyed some really nice weather for over a week), I take off the little removable clear door.  My cats love to sit in their KatKabin and watch birds, one another, me…..  Bullet actually tends to lie in it toward the front with his little arms sort of sticking out – it reminds me of a dog in a dog house.  A comparison he doesn’t appreciate.

The Perfect Cat Bed for the Outdoor Pampered Cat

December 6, 2008 By Joi

KatKabin Outdoor Cat House - Racing Green

I can’t tell you how much I want this KatKabin Outdoor Cat House in Racing Green for Bo. Svenn prefers sleeping in the loft in our garage – and why not, he has straw all around him and is safe from all the demons he’s convinced are looking from him. (My boy’s beautiful, but he’s the living definition of “high strung.”)

Bo doesn’t want to miss out on a single thing, so he doesn’t like hiding away in the garage. He wants to be in on everything that goes on. If someone comes in the house, he wants to say “Hi.” If someone goes out of the house, he wants to “Bye.” His sociable disposition isn’t anything to worry about when the weather’s warm. I have an area on the carport that’s all his – he has a little plastic igloo (up on a shelf) he loves to curl up in. There are also several chairs he prefers.

But when the weather’s cool, I worry that he doesn’t stay warm enough. I put some straw and a baby blanket in his plastic igloo and covered it with a blanket. When I put my arm in there, I’m amazed at how warm it actually feels. He loves it in there.

I really love this KatKabin Outdoor Cat House, though. It gorgeous!

From the Manufacturer:
The feline equivalent of a kennel, the KatKabin is an innovative and exciting new product that has already proved to be a big hit with cats. The KatKabin is a light, tubular outdoor shelter that will appeal to the most discerning cats – whether an independent tabby or an aristocratic pedigree.

The KatKabin can be placed in the garden, on the patio or balcony, ensuring that pets do not have to wander far from home to find comfort and security. This is important when so many cats are lost or stolen every week. When outside and unable to return to their homes, cats often sleep under cars or get inside sheds and empty buildings, sometimes getting trapped with no access to food or water.

Guaranteed for five years, the KatKabin is finished with a special, non-chemical material that will not fade in sunlight. It will stand securely on any surface and is supplied with a front doorflap.

The new range of funky finishes includes exiting metallic colours that change as they catch the light – available in mellow green/yellow autumn shades and sparkling blue/red. These new finishes expand the existing colour options of Cobalt Blue, Starlet Red, Racing Green and Chocolate Brown.

Developed to withstand extremes of temperature and guaranteed for five years, the KatKabin is made from the strongest materials and is finished with a special, non-chemical material that will not fade in sunlight. In addition, the KatKabin has a special polystyrene floor that adds extra insulation, keeping the cat warm in the coldest weather. The KatKabin will stand securely on any type of ground. It comes with an optional clip-on front door.

It has holes for air ventilation and the round shape assists the air to circulate inside. Warm air is not trapped at the top as in other shapes but circulates easily around. The KatKabin measures 26.4 x 19.2 inches high to the top of the ears. It weighs 13lbs and is supplied in a strong outer carton with handles for easy transportation. To wash, just slide off the two cat-shaped ends and remove the flooring. Rinse with hot water and a mild detergent such as washing-up liquid. Dry thoroughly and replace the ends, replacing the flooring.

This lovely deep green KatKabin will look good in any yard, large or small, town or country. Optional Winter Warmer can be inserted into all KatKabins. This is a washable interior body covering for cold Winter days and nights to keep your cat warm and very cosy.

Optional Kat Duvet is the perfect luxurious accessory for your KatKabin. Especially designed for the purpose, it sits snugly inside the KatKabin making it even cosier for your pets. The cover can be quickly and easily removed. It can be machine-washed hot, to kill dust mites and other insects. When not in use inside your KatKabin, it makes the perfect, soft bed for your pet indoors.

Bo has convinced me – he has to have this wonderful KatKabin Outdoor Cat House – Racing Green!

Sleek and Gorgeous Cat House for the Most Pampered Cats in the Neighborhood

October 29, 2008 By Joi

Two Tier Cat House - Cradle & Tunnel -Country Blue
Every cat in my family wants one of these. It’s the Two Tier Cat House – Cradle & Tunnel -Country Blue

Not only is it gorgeous (which I approve of for apearance’s sake), but it’d give the adventurous streak in any cat a real workout.

From the website:
Perfect for play or for a nap – this Two Level cat house features a cradle and a tunnel. This cat furniture is great for single or multiple cats. Your cat can snooze in cradle, or frolic through the tunnel. Not only is this a terrific cat lounger, it also is a scratching post. A solid pine pole is wrapped in all-natural sisal rope, which provides an outlet for busy paws. Available in nine colors – Cream, Tan, Brown, Red, Navy Blue, Country Blue, Green, Gray, and Hunter Green. With such a range of colors, you’re sure to find one for even your most finicky of felines. And remember – not only do cats love having their own area, but a good scratching post will deter your cat from scratching your furniture! This item ships directly from the manufacturer. Product usually arrives in 14-21 business days, depending on destination, including order processing and shipping.

My 4 are sold!

***P.S. For those of you following Miss Prissy’s health – she’s still kicking! As you know, she lost her sight earlier this year, but she gets around remarkably well (for an antique baby). I keep her safe and secure in a private area all her own when we’re sleeping or away from home. Alexa (who is much, much, much younger than Prissy’s 20 years) still doesn’t “get” that Prissy doesn’t play. In fact, Alexa wouldn’t think twice about stalking her and rolling her.

Can’t let that happen, given the weight difference, Alexa would crush poor little Prissy.

As a matter of fact, Prissy’s pacing right now which pretty much means she’s ready for supper. Stat!

Adorable Cat House!

August 29, 2008 By Joi

Cat House - 21 in. x 15 in. x 21 in.
I can’t even tell you how much I love this little
Cat House
. It’s 21 in. x 15 in. x 21 in. and ready to move in.

From the Website:

You’ve heard of a dog house, now how about a carpeted, cozy indoor house for your favorite feline? This carpeted house is purrfect for your lovable cat, and the larger size is great if your pet wants to bring along some feline friends for a house party.

The only thing is, we’d need a duplex because Prissy would absolutely love it – but there’s NO WAY Alexa wouldn’t crawl in right on top of her.

That, I’m afraid wouldn’t go over terribly well. Poor little Prissy’s nerves aren’t what they used to be. Sometimes she’ll hiss at Alexa just for breathing her air. I’ve told her that’s unreasonable and borderlines on the “B” word but she just kind of huffs at me.

What I’m thinking is that we should buy one, then we can use my husband can use it as a guide for us him to make a similar one.

I’ll run it by him later. He’ll think I’m terribly brilliant batty.

Have an amazing Labor day weekend with your cat! – Joi

We also feed and care for feral cats. Some honor us by following us home and allowing us to give them a forever home and to, more importantly, be their forever family.
