Mia and Maverick are an inseparable pair. Mia is more outgoing with people and Maverick will take more time to warm up but he will come around. They are about one and half years old, friendly, quiet, and loving. They like to cuddle together and they both like to be petted and shown love.
If you always thought that when you pay a little more for “organically” produced animal products, you were also supporting “humanely” produced animal products, you were wrong. Federal rules for organic labeling, instituted in 2000, had nothing to do with humane animal welfare practices.
Our Kitty is very old, 15 plus years. The vet said she is no longer able to groom herself. I can brush her, especially when I hold her. She is very clean and never misses the kitty box. She just needs help grooming. Is there a product you would recommend?
Journey is a people cat – old people, young people, little people, big people – she loves them all. Dogs barely exist for her.
I just looked at the weather prediction for the next couple of weeks and it’s not going above 30 degrees for days. Goofy, my Husky mix, couldn’t be happier. But Bubba, my little Pitbull mix, is crossing his legs and begging me to just this once to not make him go outside to do his business. He keeps eyeing the cat’s litter box as if he’s thinking, “That’s not such a bad idea.”
Mellie is a sweet and pretty gray tuxedo female, 2 to 3 years old. She was abandoned by her owner and left to fend for herself outside. Her foster mom took pity on her when the weather started to turn bad and you can see that she has made herself right at home!
Ben Hur is a big, devilishly handsome boy, sort of like his namesake, don’t you think? Unlike his namesake, however, he is a true pussy cat who loves laps and backscratching. He may be skittish at first and will probably require some time to adjust to you. It took his foster mom all summer to make friends with him. They are BFFs now!
Heidi came to us as a “young mother,” a sad situation that plays out too many times here in Oswego County. Her babies all found wonderful homes. But Heidi is still in need of a home of her own. She is a sweet girl, friendly and playful, and used to other cats, dogs and kids.
OK, so I’m sort of a manly guy, if you know what I mean. I adopted this cat, George, thinking he would add to my manly image – plus I just love cats; how aloof and independent they are – like me. So far, so good, except that when George (who is huge and tough looking, like me) sits on my lap he insists upon sort of kneading the blanket that I put on my lap for him.
On a happier note than last week, we have been thinking about pet toys, especially free ones. We have all had the experience of buying very cool, very expensive toys for our furry friends only to have them be ignored, disdained even. Like when you give underwear to a teenager who was expecting something electronic.
