I’ve been taking you on a shopping trip for a while now! So here we are.My human just had to get a few necessities — my cat food and wipes he uses for my therapy cat visit (need to wipe those paws after using the litter box!). But that didn’t stop me from browsing, of course.As always, there’s plenty to see!Especially in the toy section!Unfortunately, I don’t play with many toys besides my favorites, so my man rarely buys me anything.But it’s still fun to watch. And smell!In the end we got everything and left. There was a ginormous Samoyed…

Our area is getting heavy rain! So it’s a good thing that the children’s hospital we visit is just over 10 minutes away from us. And the rain wasn’t too bad on the drive over, or back.It wasn’t a busy day there, so we made the most of our visits, and I got to spend quality time with the kids I saw. One of the first was a girl with a wrist brace. Her father watches over her and her two-year-old sister. They were so happy to see me! I even gave the girl a high five.The toddler was sitting…

But I want to be specific here, and address something that has a direct impact on your relationship with your cat: your physical interactions.Physical contact with your cat is your most direct form of communication, and the one that sticks most strongly in your cat’s memory. So what you do (or don’t do) will inform your cat’s opinion of you, and the way they perceive you. The way you handle your cat, and your intent, will…

The weather was amazing last weekend! And a few more days of heat. So my man took me out to have fun. And of course he had to bring his camera and take some portraits too. I can’t say I blame him. The sunlight in the afternoon is really beautiful.He messed with the camera settings a bit, as he does, to get the background out of focus.Meanwhile, I watched a man working in the yard next door. They are busy landscaping it. The whole house has gone through remodeling and I think they are almost done.Sometimes he puts me in…

My big weekend at the cat show in San Diego was so much fun!I made quite a few wardrobe changes this time around.I didn’t really do anything elaborate for the people who visited me. Mostly just high fives and ringing of the bell, but everyone really enjoyed it!A many so many people came to me! I have more people who say they follow me on social media than my human can keep track of. Setting up specific times for me to go out to see people do well, although it was different from last year. Last year people lined up…
