I'm taking some time off to enjoy the holidays with my family and recharge for the new year. While I'll still be checking emails and socials here and there, I won't be as available as usual. I'll be back to normal on January 6th!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Tori, Austin, Siberia, & Aspen. 🎄💞

Sometimes, I reflect on the changes Siberia has experienced over her 17 years and wonder how she's felt about them all.

She's lived in three different homes, lost her first dog friend, welcomed two new dogs only to move away from them, said goodbye to her only cat companion, and now shares her life with another pup. She’s been part of a human family that grew from four to five, then six, and eventually became just two after her final move.

Her care has changed so much over the years, too.

I think, as the lovely senior cat that she is—and with my own growth as a cat parent—these past few years might just be her favourite.

They've definitely been my favourite with her. 🧡

We deserve to have safe spaces to share our struggles while grieving a pet that we love with all of our hearts, and they deserve to be remembered. 💜
I hope that sharing my hard week opens up a safe space for others to share and find comfort, too.

This is a little different from my regular behaviour and training content, but it is still important to protecting cats and their caregivers/advocates.

Happy 17th birthday, my sunshine. 🎂
Seventeen years with you is such a blessing. I've cherished every year filled with your snuggles, calm, silliness, and many demands for food and love. I love you so much, my Siberia.
Enjoy being a little~extra~ spoiled today. 💞

Meet Jube Jube and Taffy, our 2 new foster babies!!
They're about 5 weeks old and just the sweetest nuggets. They love to snuggle and have loud purrs for such little turkeys. Their favourite pass time is to stretch their legs and wrestle, as kittens should!
I'm excited to shower them with love until they are big enough for their forever home. 💖

Are you new to reading cat body language?
Are looking to better understand your cat?
Do you enjoy cute, accurate, and helpful illustrations?
Then Lili Chin's Kitty Language is for you!

This book is info-packed with sections on reading your cat's ears, eyes, tail, whiskers, body posture, sounds, and even cat-to-cat interactions. It’s also backed by insights from multiple cat behavior consultants and scientists on proper cat emotions and behaviours.

Even as someone who's well versed in "cat", it brought me many smiles as I flipped from page to page.

Check it out at your local bookstore, library, or online, if you're looking for a great resource!

I am not sponsored; I simply love this book for anyone looking to start exploring cat body language.

Standards for basic cat care are so much lower than our cats deserve, and it breaks my heart. 💔
This is my standard for basic cat care that I've developed from helping many cat parents over the years. 🐱
Our cats deserve so much more. We need to step up and help them thrive, not just survive. ❤️‍🩹

2024 Recap

The answers are in! Are you surprised by our top 3 behaviour concerns of 2024? Don't mind the background having a dance party, my camera must have been struggling to focus.

I'm back, and it's time to kick off the New Year with a fun game! 🎉 Can you guess the top 3 behavior concerns I helped my clients and their kitties with in 2024? 🐾 Drop your guesses in the comments! I'll reveal the answers and share my thoughts this Friday. Stay tuned!

Dont worry, Siberia and Aspen get along wonderfully, but this is still an important message for every cat and pet parent to know.

I've seen how emotionally taxing cat introductions and cat conflict can be on both cats and their people. I've cried with my clients and been a listening board for their worries and struggles. All of those tender moments led to creating this beautiful resource for anyone who's struggling to create coexistence between their own kitties. 💕 Comment "self-care" below for the link to this support handbook.

Some Siberia goofiness to chase away any Monday blues. 🥹❤️

Opening Up About Pet Loss Grief

We deserve to have safe spaces to share our struggles while grieving a pet that we love with all of our hearts, and they deserve to be remembered. 💜 I hope that sharing my hard week opens up a safe space for others to share and find comfort, too.

Love is unique to each of our cats, and embracing this uniqueness highlights just how special our bonds with them truly are.

Multi-cat households are tricky, and it's up to us cat guardians to provide plenty of what our cats need to feel secure so that they don't have to compete with their kitty housemates. Creating this environment of abundance can decrease tension that you might already be seeing, but it also keeps our peaceful homes just that, peaceful. 😸

It's not our cat's responsibility to meet the unrealistic expectations that we set for them. Let's take another look before we deem cats "broken".

Why I Have Just One Cat
