Sunday Selfies With Will

Hello and Happy Sunday! Today's selfie is with my buddy Will (so it's really and "us"-ie not a "self"-ie. *giggle*)  I got a little annoyed when he didn't do it right the first time and I wanted to give up, but Will kept trying.  The last pic is as good as it's gonna get! 

No, Will.  You're doing it wrong. 

Sigh... no, still not right.  

Catit Oasis Review - The Purrfect Playground for you Cat!

I’m very excited to have the opportunity to review the Oasis kit from Catit! I first became aware of Catit’s products at BlogPaws last May, and fell in love with the redesign and the new products.  Since then I’ve been patiently waiting for their release, and I was very happy when I was contacted to try out the Oasis kit.  And we are having a giveaway for one lucky cat (or person) to win their very own kitty Oasis! 

Oasis is available just in time for the holidays for $129.00 (regularly priced at $155.93.)  

For this price you get the following: 
*Magic Blue Cartridge
*Flower Fountain
*Multi Feeder
*Senses 2.0 Wellness Center
*Senses 2.0 Super Circuit
*Senses 2.0 Grass Planter
*Senses 2.0 Cat Grass Kit
*Senses 2.0 Scratcher

All of the Catit products are made of durable materials, are easy to assemble, and easy to clean.  Aesthetically they can blend into many different decors.  They all match one another so you’ll have the same color scheme and not mis-matched pieces (if that’s something you consider when buying furniture or toys for your kitties.) 

I like the three-in-one feeder.  The bowl for wet food is wide and shallow, so there is less stress on kitty’s whiskers. 

There’s a paw pit where you can put some dry food so you can leave some food out if you’re going to be home late, etc. “The paw pit stimulates natural self-controlled feeding. By hiding the kibble from view, it entices cats to instinctively paw out snack-sized portions. This natural activity slows down their pace and prevents binge eating.”  Lola actually used it! At first both she and Lexy were trying to put their faces into the pit, but Lola quickly adapted and fished out the food with her paw.  Lexy couldn’t be bothered.  There is a storage space underneath the bowl in which I can fit four three-ounce cans of Fancy Feast. 

The Kittyhood of the Traveling Bikini

Hello and Happy Thursday! I'm very excited that I am now officially a member of the Kittyhood of the Traveling Bikini! 

Phoebe (of 15 And Meowing) sent her bikini traveling in May and it finally got to me! Here is my photo shoot. (But first I need to apologize for how Mommy put it on me. She doesn't know much about bikinis.)

Ummm... Mommy, it's not on right. 

Feline Chronic Sinusitis

Lola has been very open about the fact that she is a "sneezy cat" and will often refer to her "sneeze accidents". Trust me when I tell you those sneezes are not pretty! Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser has become one of my best friends because it really cleans the mucus off of the walls and windows very well.  I always wonder how that much snot can come out of such a little nose! And there have been times where both my boyfriend and I have been the target as it's difficult to detect one of her sneezes ahead of time. 

Bless you, Lola! 

Lola and Lexy's Christmas Shelter Project

Hello and Happy Saturday! Today I'd like to tell you about a little project Lexy and I started a couple of years ago on Facebook. (We've recently learned that there are similar projects in the Blogosphere, which we did not know about. Last year at this time we were brand new to blogging didn't know many blogs.) 

We named our project "Lola and Lexy's Christmas Shelter Project".  Over the past five years we have made so many friends on Facebook, and we have sent and received SO many Christmas gifts! I mean, we have gotten A LOT of gifts. We are so very blessed that our Mom is able to provide us with everything we could possibly need, so we started this page to encourage others to give to rescues, shelters, and people with animals in need. We're very proud that we have inspired several of our Facebook friends to participate or even start little projects of their own to give back to the rescue community! 

If you go to the photo section on our FB page, you will find a list of shelters that you can donate to this year. If you would like to add a shelter, please post it to our wall or email us at lolatherescuedcat@gmail.com.

We also have a note in our Notes section with a list of possible things you can donate to a shelter/rescue. And of course, you can check the shelter's website for their Wish Lists.

AND... if you donate to any shelter, please post a photo of your donations to our wall so we can share it! Our friends over at The Cat On My Head have donated to Angels of Assisi. And Smoky Pino bought two things for Catopia Feline Rescue off of their wish list.  How pawesome is that??!!

Mommy will be bringing a bunch of stuff to Tabby's Place again this year, and we will also be donating to Oliver's Orphan Oasis, Catopia, and Hudson Valley Humane Society (where Lexy was adopted from). 

Lexy and I remember that Christmas in the shelter was so lonely, (in my book I wrote "I don't think Santa is going to come to this place.  I think all of us kitties here are forgotten"), and we want to bring cheer to other kitties so they don't feel forgotten.

If you'd like, you can grab our badge to help spread the word: 

Many thanks to Miss Ann of Zoolatry

A Safe and Stress Free Thanksgiving

With Thanksgiving only a few days away, it’s important to remember a few tips to keep our kitties safe during the holiday. 

Many people may not realize that our centerpieces can be hazardous to our furry children.  Lit candles can be a big danger to you cat as well as your house.  If you’re planning on lighting candles please make sure your cat is locked safely in another room.  And please don’t forget that certain flowersand plants are toxic.
