It's been said that people that hate cats will come back as mice in their next life.
Feline Observations
The act of owning cats, the act of even deciding to be the sort of person who could stomach the possibility of owning cats, is proof that humans aren’t always the best judge of what is good for them and what is clearly very bad. I say this as a cat owner. I say this as someone who not only loves cats, but needs them in his life, someone who, without cats, would probably whine for the rest of his days, bereft of the feline presence and hating it, like Norma Desmond grieving her career. I’m the guy in the neighborhood who leaves cat food out on the porch, hoping to attract a stray or two, knowing full well that the nearest shifty opossum will eat the food if it can. I’m the guy who can’t sleep if there’s a known stray shivering in the cold outside, and who will, even in inclement weather, throw his coat and slippers on and search for it in the snow. No cat left behind. And yet, I say again, the act of owning cats is proof that humans possess an unhealthy obsession with dysfunction, for what is a cat if not the most mischievous, devious, manipulative creature ever to be invited into our homes?

Tiny Paw
Her misty green eyes slowly opened, her pupils expanding as they changed to the darkness around her. Dots of light shone through tiny holes in the wall. Her mind, slowly adjusting itself from the fog, shaking her head in an attempt to clear it. Where am I? She finally gathered the strength to lift her head,

Must-Have Essential Supplies For A Cat Lover to Buy
If you want to bring a new kitty home then you need to purchase some supplies before her arrival. Your cat will begin exploring and getting used to things as soon as she comes home. Here, in this blog, we are going to discuss some must-have cat supplies that can make your home perfectly fit for your new feline family member. Carrier or Crate First and foremost, you need a cat carrier or crate to take your new friend home. It has to be safe with proper ventilation and easy access for you to get your cat in and out. You can try firm exterior carriers with a removable mesh door so they can be used as a carrier or sleeper. Some people try cardboard boxes but they do not allow for enough air access. You can place your cat in a plastic carrier with a locking door that should be sturdy enough to provide the right accessibility. To make your cat comfortable in the carrier, you can use the Scratch Control Spray. This spray is used to provide almness to your cat. Food and Water Bowls You should give food and water to your cat in a clean water dish. You can try some filtered water bowl for cats that filters content up to 130 times an hour with a charcoal filter that removes impurities. They are designed for convenient cleaning with an easy-to-clean reservoir and a dishwasher-safe bowl. Food There are many types of food to choose from but always buy the food that the shelter or pet store was feeding your cat and try to stick to the same diet for a while. Your cat will be adjusting to so many new things at her new home, therefore keeping her diet the same may be a comfort to her. Feeding also depends on her age like kittens need a special diet whereas senior cats require a diet formulated especially for seniors. You can buy a cat dental kit on hand once your kitty is more used to you. Bed Many cats fall asleep anywhere happily, but a bed can be a favorite napping spot. It should be warm and soft and located in a place that makes your cat feel comfortable and safe. You can buy a bed that comes with soft microfleece and includes an inner pillow. Always buy a bed that is large enough to provide room to stretch. Litter Box There are self-cleaning litter boxes available with a mechanism that takes the dirt after usage. You can try a hooded litter box that has a tall cover to hide the mess often found in litter boxes. Moreover, you can give a shot to a plain plastic box with kitty litter inside but it does require some upkeep. The perfect litter always goes a long way when introducing a new cat into your home. Comfort Zone Calming Diffuser Shifting into a new home with a new family can be very stressful for cats. They need a lot of help to adjust to their new homes. To tackle this you should buy the Comfort Zone Calming Diffuser for Cats. It provides a sense of calm by releasing an odorless vapor that mimics a cat's calming pheromones. Providing a sense of calm to your cat can prevent destructive scratching. Toys Cats love to play and pouncing is a favorite activity of cats therefore you can buy balls and catnip-filled mice. You can also try EZ Mount Track n' Roll. It mounts to any glass doors, windows, or even your fridge and provides hours of interactive fun to entertain your cat. If you want to avoid the danger of your cat choking on a toy then never give him toys with small parts such as bells, feathers, or pom-poms. The above mentioned are some useful and top-quality accessories and if you wish to buy some of these essentials for your cat, don’t forget to visit TrueGether, one of the best eBay alternatives.

Why cats are the purrrrfect pets
Cats rate the most adorable fur all pets you could ever lay your eyes on. They cuddly, playful and sassy. But most importantly, they’re stree free companions that aren’t that hard to please. Just point a laser on the floor or throw a ball of thread at them, and watch them rumble with playful delight. It’s no wonder The kings of Egypt considered cats Gods.

A Passel of Cats and Then Some
Oh my goodness? How many are there? There must surely be a passel of cats and then some! The neighbor came over and actually admitted that he had been using binoculars to try to determine how many cats hang out at our place. And he wanted to know if they were all ours. We laughed. He's so silly. Anybody that's ever been around cats knows that you don't own cats. They own you!

Misha
This is Misha. She is not my pet; not my belonging. She is my companion, my muse, my beloved family member. A rescue cat, her life had a difficult start. I try not to think too much about her life before as it saddens me to think of someone treating such a sweet-natured little creature so harshly, but her fear of humans and just about everything else suggests that she was far from as adored as she is now.

The Importance of a Barncat
Wren’s brother came in from feeding the cattle holding his arm at a funny angle, away from his body, as if his elbow hurt him. Even as she opened her mouth to ask, he put a finger to his lips. “I brought you something,” he spoke quietly, then grimaced. “But I’m going to need help. He’s nervous. Here, hold my sleeve shut.”

A Home for Oreo
The warmth of his mother and his mewing siblings greeted the tiny black and white ball of fur into this world, along with the smell of old hay on the dirt floor and wood nearly a century old with surprisingly little rot and termites for its age. He mewed and rolled from his back onto his tummy, latching onto his mother for the sustenance of her warm milk just as his only-slightly older brother and sister had done. Once they had their fill the mews subsided as they snuggled as one into peaceful slumber.
