I love cats. I love books (I work in publishing, for those of you who don’t know). And that’s why I loved this photo gallery on the Los Angeles Times book blog of cats and books. This photo was my favorite:

Have you ever thought gee, I really wish I had a stuffed animal that looked like heartworm to remind me that my pet should go to the vet once a year? Well, thanks to Giant Microbes (and thanks to the mysterious entity behind the fuzzkill for sending me the link), now you can have your [...]

This week, I’m going to take a step back from my usual “Cat’s are taking over the ‘X’ in ‘Y’ way” diatribe. I think it’s time for some positive bad cat news.
I am thankful for cat humiliation.
The best part about crazy cat ladies is that their enthusiasm for feline companionship often [...]

Perhaps you’ve seen the commercials for the new Disney movie Bolt. It’s the heartwarming story of a dog (voiced by John Travolta) who tries to make it back to his owner (Miley Cyrus) with the help of a cat (Susie Essman from Curb Your Enthusiasm) and a hamster (some guy I hadn’t heard of). I [...]

This is Mr. Lee, and that silly-looking box around his neck is his cat cam, designed to snap pictures throughout Mr. Lee’s day. On this day, for example, he crawled through some grass, watched a bird house, and met up with another cat underneath a car.

Gordon Shumway was just another orbit guard from the planet Melmac until his planet was destroyed and his spaceship was tossed through space, eventually landing in the garage of an average white family in Southern California.

Please believe me when I say you must drop everything and watch this video of a cat eating with a fork. Because it’s so much more than just a cat eating with a fork. There is also a spoon. And chopsticks. And walking on a leash. And a desire to meet Tiger Woods.
Trust me. The [...]
