"All cats like being the focus of attention.” – Peter Gray

Some cats demand attention. Others simply expect it -- like it's the natural order of things.

For Louis...well, he likes his attention both ways.

😻 Do you agree with this quote? How does your cat command attention?

PSA: The fountain we love for the kitties is currently on sale for early Black Friday! The fountain is the perfect height for cats and small dogs, and the kitties took to it right away. I love that it is quiet and easy to clean, and they love the flowing water (especially when I add ice cubes to the bowl!).

And if you already have one, just a note that filters are also on sale! I picked up a pack to have on hand myself.

Good job, kitties! 🎉😻💚🐾

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: these carriers have been fantastic with my kitties!

They don’t love when the top is closed, but they do hang out in them at home and definitely find them a source of comfort while at the vets or traveling since they’re familiar, full of their Cat Mats, and have lots of catnip throughout.

If you have any travel coming up, I can’t recommend these enough!

There’s something kind of inspiring about the way cats prioritize comfort -- no guilt, no apologies, just an innate understanding of what they need and why it matters.

Watching her curl up on this heated blanket feels like a soft reminder: rest isn’t laziness. It’s necessary.

What’s something your cat has taught you lately? 😻 Do you agree with this lesson?

Today is (somehow?!) Olivia’s NINTH adoptaversary! 🎉😽✨💚😻🎊🍾🎁🐾😺

I can’t believe my sweet little furever kitten has been with me for nearly a decade now. Equally shocking is that she hasn’t managed to trip me too badly so far, since she’s such a little shadow cat 😹

To celebrate the day, here are a handful of sweet Olivia pictures from over the years, along with the photo of us on the night I adopted her 😻

So far, Olivia has had treats and leafy greens (her favorite!), along with a fresh catnip toy and catio time. More treats to come, and probably some of her favorite yogurt for a little dessert 💚🎉

Would your cat be creeped out or honored? Louis would probably think its only proper that my camera roll is full of the kitties 😹
