Meet Scarlett: Our Adorable Ragdoll of the Week 😻


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 hard time leaving your babies? I also try to make sure he is super comfortable while I am gone, including giving sub q fluids before I leave.

Anyway, please be sure to watch Instagram, as I will probably be posting photos of cool new products I come by while there.

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

Are you on YouTube? Please join us there if you are.

Peace, love, and purrs,

Jenny

Toxic Air Fresheners and Cats

There has been a lot of talk and research lately about whether air fresheners are safe for cats.

When a cat is sick or abnormally smelly, a pet owner might look for the cause in everything from food and water issues to pesticides, plants, cleaning products, or air fresheners.

Unfortunately, these last few possibilities are an often-overlooked source of harmful toxicity, but they can be dangerous to pets’ health in the short and long term.

Here are some facts to consider about air fresheners and cats. As well as some alternatives to try in your home.

I have been loving this battery replacement for our Dyson V8 Animal - it's lasting far longer, and I love that it comes with replacement filters. One of those products that I am so very thankful for that we got to review, because I so needed it!

Scarlett – Ragdoll of the Week

This is Scarlett. She is a 5-year-old bicolor, red/flame point Ragdoll from Cajun Ragdolls in Louisiana. Scarlett’s name was chosen based on her color and her Southern roots. She is a healthy 17-pound girl who loves her groceries. She has a very thick coat that requires daily brushing to keep the mats out. She is the sweetest cat. She lets me clip her nails and shave around her bottom.

Hi Reader, I hope your week is going well. I went to Orlando last week to Global Pet Expo and was very excited to meet Julie Anne Lee of Adored Beast Apothecary. I didn't know she would be there, and it was quite fun to meet her after all the interviews we have done (I think we have done four?). After spending time with her in person, I love her even more. I loved the show's first day; I was so excited about everything. However, as I got into the second day, I started to get sad about all the...

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...
