Jimmy Mattress Vacuum: Your Secret Weapon Against Dust, Pet Hair & Allergens 😻

Published 3 months ago • 2 min read

Hi Reader,

Hope you're having a good week.

Last week was very sad here in Kansas City - there was a shooting at the Super Bowl Parade. One person died (a mom), several people were injured, and nine children (two of those children were the children of the mom who was killed) were hurt, too. It was and is beyond infuriating, devastating, and awful all at once.

It was a horrible end to what should have been a wonderful celebration. I am incredibly sad for the victims, their families, and everyone near the tragedy. I am totally brokenhearted for all those who had to experience this and for the next generation of kids who have to grow up with gun violence.

Normally, I wouldn't address something like this in a newsletter for Floppycats - however, last week, I mentioned the Parade, so I felt I needed to address it. Gun violence has to stop in the USA - and we need to follow Australia's lead because they figured it out years ago.

Moving on to cat stuff...

This past week's shorts - I always appreciate a view and a comment if you have time!

Litter Boxes for High-Spraying Cats: Choosing the Right High-Sided Option

I am only aware of a few litter boxes for high-spraying cats, but there are other ways to make a DIY litter box that works for high pee-ers.

IMPORTANT – this article discusses cats who aim high when peeing in their litter boxes, not spraying due to hormones.

Maximus Feliciano – Ragdoll of the Week

Hi Reader, I am outside with my cats as I type this newsletter. It's 11:14 a.m., and it rained a bit last night and is supposed to rain again in a few hours. We usually don't go out until 1-2 p.m. (when I have a break during my work day), but I always check the weather for Charlie. Why? Because I have to apply Tick Killz regularly to keep the fleas at bay for him in my yard. Yesterday, I realized that when we have a light rain (it was raining while I was trimming my hedges in my backyard),...

Hi Reader, On May 9th, I turned 45 years old. So, 37 years ago, I found out that I was going to get my first Ragdoll, Skittles. Birthday milestones are good times to reflect on where you are now, what you’ve learned through the years, and what you’re still learning. When I apply those thoughts to Floppycats and my cats, I am super grateful for what I have learned. What Charlie and Trigg’s journeys to restored health have taught me has been completely life-changing—not only for me, for them,...
