Cat Bloggin’ Friday – Cheese lover

Kiki is good. Tonight, she (we) discovered that she loves Laughing Cow Light Cheese wedges. I was having one for a snack, and she wouldn’t leave me alone. I doubt it will become a regular treat though. She doesn’t eat much (if any) “people food” and I’d like to keep it that way. 1 person [...]

Friday Cat Bloggin’ – Cats don’t like explosions

Kiki’s doing well. She had a rough night on Wednesday. We had that big thunder storm here, at least in the East end of Ottawa. It was pretty intense for a little while. We had a really close lightning strike, about 200 ft away from our building. It hit a hydro pole, and the power [...]

Happy Birthday Pups!

Twelve years ago today, one of my favourite little doggies was born. Happy Birthday Pups! I still remember that night, since it was the first time our family had ever had a litter of puppies. I had been sitting in the basement, late at night, playing on the computer, as I often did. I heard doggie footsteps [...]

Saturday Cat Bloggin’ – Purina Maxx Scoop testing Pt 2

So, we’ve been using the Purina Maxx Scoop litter here as part of a product testing program from Matchstick.ca for about two weeks now.  Everything is going great.

I’m finally getting a chance to blog about the product testing Kiki and I are participating in through Matchstick.ca. Our box [...]

Cat Bloggin’ Friday: Special guest appearance by Gina

So we made it over to Minden last night, fairly late. We spent today just relaxing here at the parents’ house. It was a beautiful day. Sunny. Warm. At one point, our thermometer was up to 30°C.  That’s pretty absurd for like, April 2nd. Since Ms. Kiki is back in the apartment in Ottawa, this [...]

Cat Bloggin’ Friday – Testing!

Kiki this afternoon Kiki and I were recently contacted by a word-of-mouth marketing company inviting us to participate in a cat-related product test. It’s not the first time I’ve been asked to do this sort of thing, but this time I actually accepted the offer. I’m not against blogging about stuff people send me. I [...]

Cat Bloggin’ Friday – bite marks

I guess we all have bad habits. Kiki eats plastic. It drives me nuts. She doesn’t eat just any plastic. She tends to favour those cheap plastic bags you get from Wal*mart or Home Depot. That light, dry plastic. She also likes thin plastic wrappers, like the plastic CDs are wrapped in. Or at least [...]
