Cat Seat and Cradle Lounger for the Pampered Cat

March 9, 2009 By Joi

Seat and Cradle Cat Lounger

My girl Alexa has really had a tough time of it since she broke her leg. It’s healed now (thanks be to an animal loving God) and she rips and roars like never before, but I find myself desperately just wanting her to be still. I’m SO scared of her getting hurt again.

She loves to look out windows and I’ve been looking for something sturdy (emphasis on sturdy) for her to perch on in the dining room. The windows here offer the best view of our bird feeders, her favorite viewing pleasure.

The Seat and Cradle Cat Lounger (above) looks perfect.

From the Website:
The Seat and Cradle Cat Lounger is perfect for your pampered kitty (that’s Alexa!). Features include:
*3″ posts for them to race up & down on.
*3/8″ sisal rope included.
*16″ round seat with 5″ tall cozy sides
*20″ long cradle.
*Plywood base.
*Contrasting paw prints.
* Approx. 22″ x 22″ x 36″
*Beige carpet (shade may vary)

How Pampered Cats Roll

February 7, 2009 By Joi

My entire family (which includes myself, my husband, three human daughters, one cat daughter, and two cat sons) want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of the sweet and kind words you expressed after we lost our little Prissy.   We all miss that little girl something terrible, but your kindness has honestly given us reason to smile.  Thank you so much, and much love to you and your cat babies.

Classic Cat Bed 29L x 19W x 11HThe bed to the left is something I thought you might get a kick out of.  I think it’s positively gorgeous (almost as gorgeous as the beauty that’s enjoying it).

It’s a solid cherry bed with poplar slats, brass accents and a red plaid fleece cushion.  The bad will compliment any room and will go with any home decor. The Classic Bed is a unique, handcrafted piece of furniture that has a durable finish and will give your baby years of enjoyment and comfort.  If our pets live as long as Prissy did, that’ll be at least 20 years of comfort and contentment in their very own bed.  How sweet’s that?!

The cat bed  is also actually ideal for small dogs – but don’t tell your cat.  It  measures approximately 28″L x 19 1/2″W x 11″H.

Each bed comes with the hand made fleece cushion, which is machine washable and has a zippered end for easy removal of the pillow insert. The Classic Cat Bed arrives completely assembled, ready for use.  The fact that it comes fully assembled is just icing on the cake.

Something else I love (and sometimes I honestly think I’m the only person who’d even worry about such things) – the plaid fleece cushion is just as appropriate for a feminine little girl cat as it is for a macho little guy cat.  Which means it’s just as appropriate for Bo as it would be Alexa.  PLUS, it’s just as appropriate for a feminine little guy cat – like, well… like Svenn.

I very much needed a reason to laugh yesterday morning and my boy provided it.  I was in the front yard, observing the damage the ice storm had done to our beloved trees.  I was carrying Bo because, truth be told, he may try to act a little macho, but he’s a total momma’s boy.  Anyway, I suddenly saw Svenn run around the corner of the house toward us.  I set Bo up on a safe window ledge and grabbed Svenn.  We live out of the city, so it could have been anything from a dog or coyote after him or a raccoon or rabbit (don’t laugh, it’s Svenn).

When nothing ever showed (in spite of his hair sticking straight up, eyes bugging out, and ears pinned back like they’d been gelled that way) – I walked around the corner to take a look. Just then the wind blew and our Grill’s cover flapped in the breeze, prompting my baby to jump out of my arms and flee the other way – running for his very life.  I had to laugh in spite of myself as Bo crept up for a closer inspection.  He and I both determined that we needed a new grill AND grill cover, and be both agreed that neither were anywhere near the biggest loss we’d seen this week.

Hug your cat(s) today and tell them your world wouldn’t be the same without them.  (That’s my new tagline for this site.  It’ll appear at the end of each future post because, quite frankly, truer words were never spoken.)

For the Free Spirited Cat

June 20, 2008 By Joi

If you think you’ve seen everything, I’ve got something for you. Check out the Smart Chime – Wireless Pet Doorbell. Too, too clever and too, too cute.

From the Web Site:

You don’t need to stand around and wait while your pet goes outside. The Smart Chime is a wireless doorbell that your pet can easily be taught to use to let you know when he’s ready to come back inside. You can also place the doorbell trigger inside for your pet to tell you when he needs to go out. The kit even comes with a standard door chime that your visitors can use, as well. The interior door chime is powered by three AA batteries; the pet switch requires a 9-volt battery, and the door switch is powered by a 12-volt 23A battery. Batteries are all sold separately.

Select Dog or Cat to hear barking or meowing when the chime is triggered. The Smart Chime has a 100-foot range, so you’ll be able to place the interior door chime in a convenient location.

All mounting hardware is included in the kit. Pets can be trained to use their paws or noses to activate the wireless doorbell. Some pets may require more training than others, but using treats as rewards, you should be able to teach your pet to use the Smart Chime system in a week or two.

Amazing!

Comfort Zone for Your Cat: She’ll Love This!

July 9, 2006 By Joi


Feliway Electric Diffuser (48 mL)

In an online health quiz I took in regards to Prissy, one of the cool suggestions for older cats like her was the Feliway Electric Diffuser (48 mL)
. It sounds amazing, from a cat’s point of view.

From the website:

“Feliway is also known as the Comfort Zone! A plug-in diffuser allows the Feliway scent to permeate throughout the environment. Each plug-in will cover an area of 50 to 70 square metres and lasts approximately four weeks. Alterations in the cat’s environment such as visits to the vet, moving house, new arrivals, or nervous cats may manifest themselves as a change in behaviour such as urine marking, scratching, loss of appetite and refusal to play and interact. The diffuser helps to restore a feeling of calm in the cat. Early feedback on this product has been very positive, particularly for nervous cats.

Contains one electric device and 48ml vial. NB: If cat urine marks several rooms (with total surface area of more than 70sq.m), use an additional diffuser in one of the other rooms which have been marked.”

Prissy has placed her order and is watching for the UPS man. She kind of has a crush on him anyway. She’s such a flirt.

Beautiful “MinJee”
We have inside and outside cats and we love them all like family. The beauty, above, is MinJee and she is as sweet as she is gorgeous.

If the spoiled inside crew would allow it, needless to say they’d ALL be inside. As it is, our outside cats have their own custom-built wooden homes and penthouses and, yes, they are all equipped with heating pads for the cold months.

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.
