EGADS!

So I'm reading through the blog updates today as I do everyday. I get to the posting today by Jan's Funny Farm, the post was about a book the tattooed cat. When I first saw the title it reminded me about that whole "Gothic Kitten" ordeal. So afterward I go to google "The Tattooed Cat" looking for the book and instead find that actually tattooing cats has become a trend in Russia...how awful!

The article can be seen at the above link.

Gah! This is just awful!

Oh Me Oh My Oh What A Find..

So tonight I'm sitting here thinking how awesome a cat charm bracelet would be and looking all over the internet checking out my choices. I get to this animal jewelry site and they have a few categories of jewelry by breed.

I check it out.

I see.."Devon Rex Jewelry" and go to google it. First thought.

DAISY! I love that adorable kitty!

so I end up on a Devon Rex breeders listing page and check one out in Maine.
They had the cutest song posted and I wanted to share it with you all.
Since it's not mine I'm not going to post the lyrics but instead a link to their page. I hope you all enjoy!

The Devon Dash! clicky linky! clicky linky! clicky linky!

Theres Whats On The Webz!?

Attention all cat blog owners!!!

CrystalsAndJewelry.com has unique crystals and gemstones handmade jewelry, mystical goodies, handcrafted gifts, free metaphysical info and more. Plus, Tygana and I went there and saw some really cute cat jewelry! So let's all hop on over and give some support to one of our very talented fellow cat bloggers and keep those mostly black cats rolling in the stinky goodness and treats!!

















We even caught Tygana on-line at crystalsandjewelry.com a few days ago! Me thinks he was christmas shopping because he jumped right off and onto the couch all wide eyed trying to act like he didn't do anything and wouldn't let me back on...what a cat!

Cat Beds Part 1

My first cat bed purchase was a kitty corner from that wally store for about $15. I was so excited about it with the soft looking entrance to a private snoozing spot and a low perch on the top also covered in that soft soft fabric.

Upon first look of this cat bed, I thought it would be a really good choice, then I introduced my cat to it....
The inside is not lined with any kind of fabric it has a plasticy type feel to it, the bed is pretty much weightless and the perch on top is not big enough for him to sit or lay on, not to mention because it is made of this plasticy type material with just plastic piping's on the sides as the supports the top perch has some give on it. So I put the bed on the landing at the top of the stairs in the corner, Tygana came over and gave it a few sniffs and rubbed his face on the opening to the snoozing cave. He put his front paws in and came right back out he was not the biggest fan of the fabric. I tried to put him on the perch on the top and he stood there for a second and you could see how it wasn't equally supporting his weight and there wasn't much room so he immediately jumped off and has never gone up there to this day. (don't mind the nip on the top)


I left the corner in the corner on the landing for a while and it didn't get much use from Tygana at all, he is very much into his privacy at times and this bed just didn't give him that private feeling because the back side are made of mesh.

Occasionally I would find Tygana sleeping in the closet when we had the doors somewhat closed so I took the corner and put it into the closet. Now he occasionally uses it when he wants to get away from us. The doors to the closet are usually always mostly closed so it's nice and dark and private in there and he will use the little snoozing cubby then.
So, overall because the size of the top perch which seems to be kitten sized and kitten weight approved most likely, the mesh backing, the weight (which because of the weight this 100% needs to be in a corner) and the overall plasticy feel (which I hear some cats like to pee on plastic, so if your cat is one to wee wee on the plastics and plastic type fabrics I wouldn't recommend this) for the price Tygana and I give the kitty corner 3 paws out of 6.

Tygana: how ams I supposeds to makes the biscuits in this things?!

Tygana Found The Tree

So Tygana came around pretty quick, did a few circles around the tree sniffed it out, rubbed his head on the sisal and found the perch. He's been up there pretty much ever since.



I think he likes it..uh oh here he comes...*falls*

Yeshs, I haves comes down from mys trees to let you all knows, I am in loves with this product. It's snugglies and warm and not to mentions I have birds eye views overs boths of my humans and I does agrees 6 paws up! Maybes all yous beans cans makes a $50 investments for your furry friends.

Ashley: Tyganaaaa you pushed me out of the wayyy! *scooches over* The only negative I have is when I was putting it together I was so excited and in a hurry I didn't fully read over the instructions and had to re-insert some sisal poles a few times. But everything in the tree is screwed together and very sturdy once it's together, the tree also comes with all tools needed to put it together!

Cat Tree

Sorry for the lack of product updates lately. I was waiting for a package to come into the mail and today I got it!!!
$50 + free shipping on eBay! So excited, cat trees in the pet stores are always sooo expensive so I have yet to get one. I saw this one and had to have it!
So the package arrived double boxed with all parts and pieces bagged.

So, as you can see in the pictures the tree does come 8 pieces and it's 41 inches tall it's covered in a floofy and soft material instead of the typical carpet material. I thought it looked so cozy for the winter! The tree comes with instructions and if you take the time and look at them and note the numbers you can get the tree together within minutes.
The top perch of the tree is really neat it comes with this hanging ball that when givin a little tap, like say from your favorite cat friend it gives a little chirp like a bird!


My overall thought of the cat tree is 6 paws up! It was a great value for the size and the parts included, it has the enclosed cat house 4 sisal scratching poles and donut shaped platform for the cat to hang out on and a perch with a back rest!
I just got the tree up this afternoon so Tygana hasn't gotten to really check it out, he's usually wary of new things at first and has to come back and check on them for a while for the first few hours. So as soon as he starts to get into checking out and using the tree he can update you all on his thoughts on the tree!
