I have always had cats, both growing up and now as an adult. I have been a pet behavioral therapist for a number of years now. I started this blog to help other cat owners, with advice, tips, best product reviews, and to create a warm and cat friendly community.
Ever wondered, what do cats do all day at home while you’re out at work? The answer to this question varies from cat to cat. Some are extremely lazy and will almost sleep the entire time you’re out (who can blame them hah), while some go about their daily ‘chores’ as I’ll explain in this […]

The nightmare for any cat owner is their cat going missing. I’ve had it happen a couple of times for a few days, and I can tell you it’s hell not knowing where or what’s happened to my cats.

Neosporin is a Triple Antibiotic Ointment that’s very effective at keeping small scratches and wounds clean, free from infection, and speeding up the healing process.
