Cat Litter II

Here I am again to talk about cat litter.  This is a topic near and dear to my heart since I have 7 cats.  Seven.  I still stop and count again to make sure.
My fav cat litter used to be “Healthy Pet Health Plus.”  It started getting dustier due to the “grain” in […]

Conjunctivitis

I have a feral cat that is not totally tame yet…meaning I cannot pick her up or pet her for very long.  Well, she ended up having a conjunctivitis episode.  I did not know she had this until recently.  This happened on a weekend about a month ago.   She was miserable.  I was quite upset because I could not […]

Quotes on Cats

Apology

I would like to apologize to anyone whose comments have been deleted on my blogs.  Apparently there is a technical glitch.  I have not deleted anyone’s comments.  I just wanted that to be known.Â
Thank you!

Cat Litter

The topic of cat litter can be quite extensive as I have found being in cat groups on the Internet.Â
I, myself, prefer the more “natural based” cat litters.  I have used Arm and Hammer, Sweatscoop, “World’s Best Cat Litter”, and various pine, cedar, and grain types.  I have allergy sinus problems, so dust is a big thing with me…plus, it means more cleaning.  […]
