i can make sno angul

so did anyone out there join in on the epic snowball fight that took place on bascom hill yesterday? what a way to spend a snow day!

in other snowy news, dchs wants to remind you to check your car for any cold kitties who may have tried to snuggle up to your warm engine. in these cold temps it's best to keep your furried ones indoors, preferably cozied up near a fireplace with a cup of hot cider and a good book.

in science-y news, a team of thinkers got together and used their own biased rating system to officially declare that dogs are better than cats. how passe. this kind of us-against-them thinking is another reason why so many cats are killed in shelters every year. all creatures should be loved and respected for what they are, not what they are not.

hello kitty kitty

the iconic face of adorableness, hello kitty, is turning 35 this year. she's still cute as a button after all these years.

hope you all had a fun halloween! looks like the obamas got into the holiday this year as they handed out candy at the white house. mrs. obama even dressed up as cat!

it's the birthplace of the pet cat some 9,500 years ago. now Cyprus is laying claim to two new breeds: the appropriately named "aphrodite" and the "st. helen"

wuh oh. looks like dogs are the new hummers: analyzing our pets' eco-footprints. cats are like priuses, only they look a lot cuter.

happy national feral cat day!

alley cat allies is promoting the no kill approach of t-n-r by honoring october 16th as national feral cat day. now get out there and love some kitties!

in a recent poll dogs edged out cats as best pet. must have been fixed. get it? fixed! seriously, go trap some ferals and get 'em fixed!

another kitty kidnapped and since cats are still classified as property she's only worth $100. when is our legal system going to recognize pets as different from cds and sofas?

hey balloon boy, now that we know you're safe, meet keyboard cat.

everyday is hump day for some dogs

some litter box issues are easy to explain - it's like a port-a-potty so of course they want it be as clean and tidy as possible. if only they could figure out how to do the hover maneuver.

cats like toys that move and mimic prey. "of all the (cat) toys available, none is better designed than the owner himself." see, they love to play....with you! mwahahaha.

a drunk badger holding up traffic is an everyday occurrence here in madtown.

a new way to get kids into reading - story time for dogs! i wonder if they'd like dewey the library cat?

gotta love those big mickey-mouse hands!

friday fun day!

it's take your dog to work day - encouraging lazy dogs to get off the couch and get a job!

neener, neener, neener! "cats edge out dogs at bedtime. thirty-six percent of cat owners allow their kitties to sleep in the same bed with them whereas only 29 percent of dog owners allow their dogs in the bed."

lucy is the only store cat to have a name on the top ten pet names list, the other four are just happy not to be stuck with names like fluffy, pookles and princess punkin'.

a mama cat nurses puppies! what's next? the packers cooking dinner for the vikings?

kitty-cat wack-a-mouse - the real deal! well, sorta.

otto, the fetching trash cat

whoever says that cats don't have the innate desire to please, that is so often associated with dogs, has obviously never had a cat like this!
