Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from Allegra and Ingrid May your Christmas be filled with peace, love and purrs

When I had this card designed late this summer, I never thought Ruby wouldn’t be here with us at Christmas. I debated not posting it, but I love the image so much, I decided to go ahead. It reflects Ruby’s fun-loving spirit purrfectly. I can almost hear the conversation between her and Allegra, with Ruby egging Allegra on to wear a bow on top of her head, too!

Allegra and I will have a quiet...

The Night Before Christmas, Feline Style

I’ve always loved Clement Clarke Moore’s poemThe Night Before Christmas. Over the years, there have been many cat versions of the poem out there, but none better than the one dictated to Harry Shubin by the Ghost of Catmas Future on a dark winter night.

T’was the night after the adoption event,
And all through the store,
Not a creature was stirring, not even a stray cricket on the floor
The Adoption Counselors were all snug in their beds
Thinking of ways to move adoptions ahead.

Farewell, Sweet Ruby

It is with a broken heart that I’m writing to let you know that my sweet Ruby girl passed away Wednesday afternoon. I needed some time to mourn her privately before being able to share the sad news with you and mourn her publicly.

Less than three months after she was diagnosed with what was most likely renal lymphoma, my precious little girl is gone. I chose to provide hospice care instead of pursuing aggressive diagnostics and treatment, and I have not regretted my choice for one moment....

Sleepy Tiger Cat Mat from Triple T Studios

You can never have too many cat mats around the house. Jackson Galaxy recommends tossing mats like this one all around the house as “scent soakers” to help your cats feel confident and secure. If you’re not familiar with the term, scent soakers are items made of soft material that will retain a cat’s smell.The pads also work as carrier liners and may help to make the carrier a friendlier place by incorporating the cat’s own familiar scent.

Triple T Studio’s Sleepy Tiger Cat Mat features a...
