Has your cat or dog splooted today? 😸 The 'sploot' pose is not only adorable--it's helpful for "relieving tension or pressure on their lower back and hips," according to vets at VCA Animal Hospital.

Special thanks to our fan Trina for sharing this photo of the lovely Sylvie enjoying an afternoon sploot!

Does your cat chirp or ‘ek ek ek’? Tell us about it!

Videos of cats saying “ek ek ek” have gone viral, but why do some cats make that noise? The fascinating behavior stems from a combination of hunting instinct, cat-to-cat communication, and prey mimicry.

If you have more than one cat, you’re in good company. Multi-cat households may very well be the most common living arrangement for adopted cats in the United States. A third of US households own at least one cat, and each household has 2.2 cats on average (data from Alley Cat Allies). Of course, some cats prefer to be the only cat in the household, and not all cat parents have the space, time, and resources to care for multiple cats. However, cat owners who have adopted more than one cat know that keeping the peace in a multi-cat household can be a challenge.

Your cat values a clean toilet as much as you do. Bad smells might be the first thing you notice about a dirty litter box, but the effects on your cat are much worse. Procrastinating on litter box chores can have serious consequences for your cat’s health.

Did you know that cats sweat from their toes? There is a lot more to cat “toe beans” than the social media photo craze. Toe beans are vital to a cat’s jumping ability and scent marking. These pads on a cat’s paw have also taken on new implications, such as being used to predict a cat’s personality.
