Fred, Birch, Hobbs, & Maddie’s Honest RAWZ Review


Hi Reader,

Happy New Year's Eve! Do you have fun, relaxing plans with your kitty?

Charlie is hoping there aren't a lot of fireworks.

If you missed Charlie's zoomies - I encourage you to watch it for a good smile. It dropped 30+ degrees in one day, and when I let him out, he wasn't quite expecting it...but still got his zoomies in.

Today is the last day to enter our December 2025 Giveaway: BROOK Glass Cat Fountain! If you're reading this after the 31st, be sure to check our giveaways page for our January 2025 giveaway, which I am also super excited about because we are going to review it!

Thanksgiving Taste Test: Does RAWZ Live Up to the Hype?

What happens when you bring four cats together for a Thanksgiving feast? We decided to find out by unboxing the RAWZ Canned Cat Food line with Goat’s Milk!

This wasn’t just any taste test—we had a whole house of critics. My cousin’s 4-year-old Ragdolls, Fred and Birch, joined my Aunt’s 17-year-old seniors, Hobbs and Maddie, to sample three high-protein recipes: 96% Rabbit, 96% Turkey & Turkey Liver, and 96% Chicken & Chicken Liver.

In our latest video, I go beyond the label to show you precisely what’s inside the cans. You’ll see the rich texture of the meat and how the infusion of goat’s milk creates a meal that even senior cats couldn't resist.

The Results Were Surprising:

Whether you are looking for a high-moisture diet for a senior cat or a protein-packed meal for a bouncy Ragdoll, see how RAWZ performed in our ultimate family "buffet" challenge.

Is Your Fluffy Friend Actually a Ragdoll?

Ever wonder if your cat is a purebred Ragdoll or just a very glamorous "look-alike"? While they are famous for their stunning blue eyes and silky, rabbit-soft fur, being a Ragdoll is about more than just good looks.

From the signature "flop" (do they really go limp when you pick them up?) to the "puppy-cat" personality that leads them to follow you from room to room, there are specific markers that define this beloved breed.

Necoichi Cat Scratcher Bowl

The One Scratcher Every Cat Is Obsessed With

I’ve reviewed many cat gear products over the years, but I have to share a "holy grail" find that has a 100% success rate in my circle: the Necoichi Cat Scratcher Bowl.

Seriously, I have not met a cat yet that doesn't love this thing. It’s a rare "unanimous" win in the cat world!

Every single cat in my family that has one is obsessed with it, and every time I’ve gifted one or recommended it, the result is the same: instant love. It’s not just a scratcher; it’s a curved, ergonomic bed that mimics the shape of a cat’s body, making it the ultimate spot for both scratching and deep naps.

Why it’s a household favorite:

  • The Perfect Curve: The bowl shape supports their back while they sleep.
  • Double Duty: They can go from a satisfying scratch session to a snooze without moving an inch.
  • Durable Design: It withstands aggressive scratching while remaining sleek in your home - plus you can buy replacement pads for it when you have used both sides of the one it comes with.
  • Universal Appeal: From my cousin's Ragdolls and Charlie to my aunt's seniors, every cat claims it as their own immediately.

If you’ve been looking for that one item that is guaranteed to be a hit (and save your sofa), this is it.

Okeanos – Ragdoll of the Week

"Okeanos is a little over a year and a half old. He goes by Oki since most people don’t want to pronounce his full name! It turns out that naming him after a Greek Titan gave him a Titan-sized personality as well. I should have known better! Oki was picked out from a breeder and welcomed into my family full of ragdoll lovers."

Hi Reader, My Aunt Jean's Hobbs turned 18 on the 1st! Hobbs is the coolest cat I know. See his handsome self here. I took Charlie to the vet last week. First time, I have taken him to see our vet since Trigg died. Well, I take that back - he has seen Dr. Sally a few times when I have needed help giving fluids. Charlie is a kidney cat, and he is also Chucky when it comes to getting fluids. So there are a few people who can actually do it. Dr. Sally and I are the only two so far who have had...

Hi Reader, Hope you and your kitties are safe, happy, and healthy. Charlie and I are ramping up for the warmer weather and all it brings - I think he is less attractive to fleas now, but only flea season will tell us if this is the case. I really hope we can go an entire flea season without getting fleas. It would be lovely. Recent short videos that might be of interest to you: ✨ The 1 in 100 Million Cat Video You Just Found!
