We love to treat our cats. If we could, we'd invite them onto the table to have dinner with us. We know, we know -- that's not a good idea. A better idea is to find healthy, natural ways to treat our cats instead.
Now more than ever there are many different options for cat treats available on the market. We've rounded up a few tips and suggestions for healthy, low-calorie treats for cats that won't fill up your cat with junk.
We don't know much about human holidays except that they mean lots of treats and lots of loud people. But we do know that this particular holiday, Thanksgiving, is a pretty special one. Every year, our humans remember to be happy for the things that they have. Can you imagine that? Cats don't need to be reminded of this -- we're always thankful for the things we have. Have you ever seen a cat not enjoying every moment of his day?
Still, for this holiday we decided to get a hold of mom's computer and put down the things we're thankful for. Here's what we came up with.
You want your cat to have lots of space to roam, but you don't want your living room centerpiece to be a giant cat tree and scratching post. After all, you might be a cat owner but you're a stylish cat owner! And while our cats might not care much about decor, it's important.
That's why we've put together a list of awesome furniture and space ideas that combine cat functionality with human aesthetics; in other words, they're fun for cats but look great!
Trick or Treat! Are you ready for Halloween? We are, with a cute and natural new line of Halloween-themed toys made in collaboration with CC Design (they're selling out fast -- get yours here!). If CC Design's story has inspired you to make your own love- (and catnip-) filled toys, we have some ideas to get you started.
Here are five beginner-friendly crafts of toys you can make for your cat. And with Halloween coming up soon, we chose some cute Halloween-themed cat toy designs. It's something you can enjoy making, and your cat can enjoy playing with.
Cats are like children. And like children, sometimes our cats do things that absolutely baffle us. Share this behavior with a non-cat owner, and you might get a blank look. But share it with a fellow cat parent, and you'll get enthusiastic agreement -- "My cat does the exact same thing. How weird!"
And yes, our cats do some really weird things. Have you ever stopped to wonder: why?
There's a chill in the air. As much as we've complained about the heat of the summer, we're not quite ready to let it go just yet. Before we head off into autumn, let's look back on some notable summery cat moments of the past few years.
You might have some plants in your garden specifically for your cat to enjoy. If you keep plants indoors, you almost certainly picked them with your cat in mind. But how many of the plants in your garden are inspired by your cats?
Cat-themed plants take inspiration from cats, from their whiskers to their tails. We've rounded up a bouquet of these kitty plants below!
In the Mikhailovsky garden of the State Russian Museum grows an odd garden. Instead of daisies and roses, this garden grows cat's whiskers and pussy willows. Easels and green wooden stalks rise out of the grass, topped by photos of cats.
It's clearly not your typical garden. Presented by Fat Cat Art, this art installation shows pictures of cats among plants, as plants. (We heard you like cats and flowers…) The Garden of Cats features some fantastic photographers from Instagram and their feline companions.
We all have that one novelty cat item. You know the one, usually given by a friend who followed one of those lists of "10 awesome things to get your cat lover friend." Maybe you have cat butt magnets sticking out of your fridge, or cat butt coasters under your mugs of catnip tea (seriously, what's with all the cat butts?). Weird cat-themed products are everywhere you look.
But sometimes you come across a cat product that's intended for cats to use (or for you to use with your cat). When this happens, you're left wondering if someone actually thought this would be a good idea. And whether it's a gag gift or for real. ...And where you can get one. For a friend, of course.
Here are five of our favorite weird cat products that left us scratching our heads..
