Talking Cats and Slow News

February 3, 2012

I find that Friday is one of the slowest days on the internet (second only to Saturday because hopefully people are enjoying some fresh air – you know, OUTSIDE). My email slows down. My Twitter stream slows down. Most people are done writing and promoting for the week and gearing up for the weekend. I [...]

Pets Love Christmas Too

December 21, 2011

I don’t think I’ve ever spent a Christmas without pets. If I happened to have a lull in my life where I didn’t have pets (which would have been a dark and lonely time), I always had family to call on at the holidays and their pets to snuggle. When I finally got my very-own-all-by-myself-and-no-roommates [...]

That Darn Cat

November 14, 2011

Cats. You either love ‘em or your hate ‘em. Personally, I love them but I bet you already knew that. And I know I’m far from alone. I actually had the good fortune of speaking at BlogPaws this summer. It’s a conference designed specifically for pet bloggers. If you aren’t part of that community, I’m [...]

When Business Has a Face: The Story Behind SEED

April 5, 2011

I “met” Rebecca Gournay in the most natural of ways. Well, natural for these days. We started tweeting. Rebecca is one of the founders of Graine de Vie, a private company producing SEED bodycare. They are touted as eco-friendly products with 100% natural ingredients. I know about the company because sometime last year, before I even [...]

Goodbye, my friend

February 20, 2011

We last saw you alive eight days ago. Your hearing wasn’t what it used to be. Your vision was nearly gone due to age-related cataracts. Your body was failing you. But I was still hoping it wasn’t your time. We wanted to go on vacation. With new jobs and moves impending, we knew this would be [...]

The Scar That Defines Me

November 12, 2010

It’s not an emotional scar (thank God). It’s not my c-section scar, which I affectionately called “the mail slot.” It’s the scar on my lip. And just above my lip. It’s from my forever dog, Holden. I wrote long and hard about my precious Lhasa Apso, Holden, who will forever stay in my heart. But [...]

Finding Your Forever Pet

November 1, 2010

If you aren’t an insane pet lover, or animal lover in general, like me, just stop right here. Because you won’t love and appreciate what I’m writing about today. And you just won’t get it. For the rest of you, whether your love is a cat, a dog, a lizard, a snake, a frog, a [...]

Do Not Disturb: Napping for a Cause

October 23, 2010

I really don’t need a good excuse to take a nap but if I did, this is as good a reason as any. Please stop by the Purina Cat Chow Facebook page today and pledge to take a nap and help fight breast cancer! Meanwhile, Arnie and Josie are calling me. We’re ready for our [...]

Just 5 Things… Funny Videos

October 22, 2010

In honor of my video contest closing today (at 11:59pm EDT), I thought I’d go with a video theme. And my video theme is all based on the wonder and magic of YouTube. I was a slow adopter to YouTube but caught on pretty quickly. Sometimes I click on something. And then I click on [...]

If I could waste a day

July 19, 2010

I know the reality of that statement. The reality is that I could waste a day. In fact, I sure that I have wasted a day before. Or three. Or fifty-seven. I think any time spent watching Lifetime movies is a bit of a waste. But sometimes it’s just fun. I’ve known for quite some [...]
