What’s up with cats and grass?

Sophie is off taking a nap, so I thought I’d take the time to post. The question being, what’s up with cats and grass? We recently were at the store and decided to buy one of those containers designed to grow grass that your indoor cat will enjoy nibbling on. Since we chucked most [...]

Indoor cat torture…..

Spring is in the air….leaves are budding, birds are singing, and I’m stuck inside. An indoor cat.

Why in the world mom even tries growing plants in this house is beyond me. Why does she have plants, that to me, seem obvious should be for my enjoyment - but then yells at me every time I indulge? And frankly, I’ve done such a number on them I not sure why she keeps [...]

AHHHHH……the heating vents. I don’t know why I didn’t discover these years ago. There is nothing like having a warm a toasty belly. In the winter when the sunny spots in this house are few and far between, the vents are the place to be. I’ve got this down to a science as [...]

Hello world!

I’m Sophie. I’m a cat. My family is really into blogging. I got a bit tired of them constantly on the computer so I thought, “Why not start my own blog and tell the world what it’s like to be a cat!”. I was adopted into this family almost 8 years ago. I like [...]
