Why do cats like small, dark spaces? 🧐 According to most theories, cats prefer small spaces as a form of protection against larger predators in the wild.
Another possibility, according to , is thermoregulation (being in small, tight spaces can help cats stay warm). This feeling is almost the cat version of getting a hug! 🥰

With Halloween items starting to hit the shelves we’ve been seeing a lot of black cats lately, but did you know they’re actually the least popular cat to get adopted? 🧐
Unfortunately it even has a name— “Black Cat Bias”. According to the National Library of Medicine ( ) this has led both the and the Humane Society to create special promotions like “Black Cat Appreciation Day” to help boost their chances of being adopted. 🐈⬛ 💕
While no one is 100% sure why this phenomenon exisits (superstition, not photographing well, and negative media portrayls are all possibilities) one thing IS for sure: black cats are great pets deserving of loving homes.

Is your cat always begging for a snack? 🐟
Every paw-rent is probably familiar with the 3am wake up calls, the afternoon screaming session, or even destructive tendencies that arise from our kitties when they think they should be fed, but are they actually hungry? The most common answer is: not really. 🫢
Most cats who display this behavior have just learned that humans (aka: you) typically give in to them. Unless your cat is actively losing weight or has a medical condition, they should be perfectly fine until their next meal time 🐈

DID YOU KNOW: full grown cats sleep about 12 to 16 hours a day? That’s double the 7(ish) hours you need! Cats tend to “cat nap” versus fall into deep sleeps so they a remain on alert, which causes them to need more sleep than us. 😴 💤
Excessive sleeping and napping could also be because they’re bored! If you’re concerned your cat is “always sleeping” try giving them a new toy, some cat nip, or engage in a play session. 🐟 🐈

it’s been a while since the last ! 👅
Did you know cats have something called the “Flehmen Response” that makes them scrunch their face up and stick their tongues out when they smell something. This silly looking reflex allows them to “taste the air” by collecting pheromones on their tongues and transferring them to their vomeronasal organ on the roof of their mouths. 👃🏻 🐱
(or they could just be yawning 😉 )

“how do you get these photos?!” is a question we hear a lot about getting the cats to model our furniture and well, it’s basically just this! 📸
We are all cat lovers here, so sometimes we have to bring our own cats and put them to work (don’t worry—they’re paid in pets and treats). 🐱 💕

Does your cat “bloop” or “blep”? It could be a sign that they’re relaxed! 👅
Other reasons can be missing teeth or genetics, but no matter what the cause, we can agree—it’s adorable.

Can cats and houseplants coexist? 🧐 💭
While some cats are completely fine with houseplants others find them an irresistable toy, so it’s better to be safe than sorry! 🪴
Here are some common houseplants that are A-Okay to be “accidentally” munched on: Aloe, Bamboo, Basil, Begonia, Calathea, Ferns, Palms, Spider plants, and Zinnia

“Does a cat wall need to be an entire wall?” is a question we get a lot, and the short answer is no! (and Eleanor!) are two big city kitties that have made the most of their space 🏙️ 🐱

fun fact: Rose is totally blind! 🤯
She was able to navigate the cat furniture in front of her without being able to see, which ironically, was quite the sight to see!
Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words...and we think this one is worth even more than that. What do you think we should caption this silly action shot we grabbed? 📸
Are black cats actually bad luck? Despite popular superstition, there’s no reason to believe black cats contribute to any form of bad luck. 🍀
In fact, this is typically a western connotation, as in ancient Asian and Egyptian cultures, black cats were actually seen as an omen of *good* luck. So before you cross the street to get out of their path, try giving them a chin rub instead. 🐈⬛

Meet Scooter! He's 5 years old, 16 lbs, and available for adoption through Williamson County Animal Center Scooter is very intelligent and has learned to sit and give high fives. He doesn't much like other cats, so the facility is looking for a home without them. Also probably no dogs, but they do mention a very slow-moving dog might work. When he wants to play with you, he will bite you. Well not bite you, but a playful nip. He's very friendly and has a great personality. If you're interested in learning more about him, here's a link: https://www.petfinder.com/cat/scooter-55772106/tn/franklin/williamson-county-animal-center-tn75/
