The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter, It isnt just one of your holiday games. T.S. Eliot
T.S. Eliot had it right in his famous poem: naming catsis a very important matter! Some of our cats come to us already named, and we keep the name because it suits,or because the cat already responds to it. Others come with names we dont like, so we choosea new name for them.Either way, most cat parents put a lot of thought into naming a cat.

If you have a litter kicker like I do (we wont name any names here, but her name starts with the letter R), you know its a constant battle to keep the area around the litter box clean.

When the PR agency for Bissell contacted me to see if I wanted to try the Bissell Perfect Sweep Turbo, I was definitely interested.
The Bissell Perfect Sweep Turbo is a cordless rechargeable sweeper. The product is...

Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow, it only saps today of its joy. ~Leo Buscaglia
Ima recovering worrier. I have a long history of worrying, and I learned from the master. My dad had elevated worrying to an artform. It wasnt until the final months of his life when he truly learned to live in the moment. During my last visit with him, when he was already very ill, he told me how hed learned to appreciate every flower, and every butterfly. It sounds trite, but it resonated deeply with me,...
