Miss Cuddlywumps Converses: with Artist Beth Spencer
Friends,
a few weeks ago we were prowling around on Etsy (as you do) when we stumbled
across these really cute cat pins from Beth Spencer. We just knew that you all
would love them as much as we do, and so we’re pleased to welcome Beth Spencer
herself to our blog and to this edition of "Miss Cuddlywumps Converses" to tell us a little bit about herself and her work.

Cat of the Week: Pumpkin Pie in Baltimore
Each week in this space, we feature a senior cat in need of
adoption or sponsorship. Please remember all the older cats in shelters. They
make great companions, and unlike kittens, they (probably) won’t climb the
curtains! Adopt a senior cat, and help him or her enjoy the best years of their
life.

Book Review: Death by Pumpkin Spice
One week before Halloween, it’s only appropriate that we
bring you our review of a cozy mystery set at a Halloween party. Death by Pumpkin Spice is the third book
in the Bookstore Café series by Alex Erickson. It is the first book we’ve read
in the series, and we found it to be a lot of fun, though the cats in the book
aren’t as prominent as we’d hoped.

A Haunting in Maryland and Friendly Fill-Ins
We have two treats for you today. First, a story that is
either spooky or just one of those things, depending on your perspective. And
then Friendly Fill-Ins, one of our new favorite things.
