Hi Reader, Hope your week is going really well. By the time you get this email, I will be at Global Pet Expo in Orlando, Florida. I have ALWAYS wanted to go, but haven't been able to get away because of Charlie or Trigg's needs/health, finances etc. Charlie is stable enough, so I am able to travel. My mom and sister are also in town, so if the cat sitter has any trouble, I know they are around to help out. However, I feel terrible when he is alone, especially with Trigg gone. Do you have a...

Hi Reader, How's everyone's weather? Ours is up and down - it was warm today, that lovely, beautiful blue sky, and by the time you receive this email, it promises to be snowing in Kansas City again. Sigh. I don't mind it for the fleas, but it's hard to keep putting down products for fleas. I'd love to find a flea expert to talk to, so if you know of any, please let me know. Likewise, if someone has a connection to someone famous who loves cats, please let me know or let them know about me. I...

Hi Reader, Is something off with your cat? Can your vet not figure it out? Or are they recommending numerous diagnostic tests? You might want to consider getting these answers with at-home bioenergetic testing from PetMedella. Remember our recent exploration of bioenergetic testing with PetMedella for kitties? Well, did you know this incredible technology actually started with human health? CBH Energetics, the sister company of PetMedella, pioneered this approach for people, and now we're...

Hi Reader, I got away to the Phoenix/Scottsdale area this past weekend (I very rarely leave town because of all the Charlie issues I have had in the last 3 years, and it's also one of the reasons you see me supporting all the products I do that have helped to get him better). My mom is a huge Kansas City Royals' fan and has always wanted to attend Spring Training in Surprise, AZ. If you're a baseball fan and have never gone, I highly suggest it. Such a lovely area of the country, and just a...

Hi Reader, Hope your week is going smashingly well. We got a flea. It is amazing how we were in high negative temperatures one week and then got a flea the next week. So more flea videos are coming. I really don't know how to win the war on fleas without moving to New Mexico...(Charlie got a head tremor from topical flea meds, so I am reluctant to give him those again in fear of a seizure). I've also tried nearly everything on this flea page on my site. I hope it's because I didn't get ahead...

Hi Reader, Floppycats turned 17 years old on February 22. I cannot believe it. I wouldn't have made it this long without your love, support, and sharing of our content. It truly means the world to me. THANK YOU!! Our weather is much nicer this week, which is encouraging but also always scary for flea season for me....it's so much work. Head's up - Chewy is offering their Free $30 eGift Card with a $100 purchase with code SPRING. There are some limitations. It ends March 3, and you can see all...

Hi Reader, Hope you are having a good week headed into Valentine's Day weekend. I have a few interviews this week that I am excited about - Wednesday is Dr. Dragos again. We are going to talk about kittens! And how to approach their veterinary care in the first year, what they should eat, and more. I am very excited to talk about something fun and starting off on the right foot! Then, on Friday, I will interview Julie Anne Lee of Adored Beast Apothecary again. I feel so very fortunate to be...
