Doods! I hope you’ve had an awesome holiday season–and it’s not over. We still have New Year’s Day, and this one will be a year filled with clarity and far vision, a good time to take stock and see what’s what. Look ahead and see the bigger picture–there’s not going to be another 2020, so […]
You are, of course, right about life without cat hair all over being not what it’s cracked up to be. How many treats are enough? Just one more? Count out the treats and give them to the kitty one by one. When he throws up, there’s your answer. One less than that. = = = […]
My question is, is there any way to make fresh laundry unattractive to cats? We had limited success using a detergent that had a really strong perfumy smell, but it was too much for me so i had to go back to the one we’d been using. Well, if you leave it in the dryer […]
Do you have any tips for how to train dogs not to be so annoying to cats? Honestly, dood, the dog I lived with was already trained when I arrived home. It was a huge surprise a few years later to meet That Damned Dog Butters and discover that all dogs are not like Hank, […]
Max, The Hubby and I will leave our happy home to drive to grandma’s house, to visit with relatives! Can you think of something LESS FUN than that? Luckily, the office is also closed on the Friday after T-giving, so I get to spend it with all of our kitties! Yay! Well, I’m pretty sure […]
Is there any way to convince a cat that treat time is once a day only? Well, no. How can it only be once a day? DON’T YOU LOVE YOUR CAT??? Once a day. (Just only give them treats once a day, and eventually they’ll come to expect it only once a day. This process […]
Eww, they are getting other animals germs on them! Where are the hazmat suits, Max? So, here’s my question for you, Max: since you are an author of books, do you read books too? Or listen to audiobooks? I don’t think anyone can be a halfway decent writer if they don’t read. Every day I […]
Oh wise Max, Whyyyyyyyy did we have to wait so long for breakfast on Sunday morning? And dinner? You’d think the human would have compensated us for the late breakfast. Is this going to be the way it is forever–chow a WHOLE HOUR late? Who does our human think she is? It’s only gonna be […]
What kind of charity needs her to wear those pants, or do i want to know? Max, what is your very favorite toy of all time ? She doesn’t HAVE to wear them and I think the charity would prefer she didn’t. SHE LIKES THEM. I KNOW! I don’t really have a favorite toy since […]
Those pants should be illegal, Max! Here’s my question: Why can’t you talk Buddah into barfing on those pants, so they are ruined and must me dispatched to the Great Pants God in the sky? That will teach her…*evil grin* It wouldn’t do any good to have him hork on them. Aside from having a […]
Max, why did it go all black this week? It was pretty cool. The humans couldn’t see and it wuz funny cuz we could see just fine. I can’t wait for it to go all black again. The Northern California power outage is a complicated topic, but I’ll say this much: everything went black because […]
Hey Max, So the mom set up a room for the foster kittens and it is great cause they have their own space (OK – except Daiquiri isn’t happy cause it is harder for her to get to the kitten food, but whatever). Then the other night mom comes home and brings BACK a foster […]

Dear Max. Thanks for the Costco tip. Now as we liked your Christmas decoration post last week, we got to wondering what we would celebrate if, heaven forbid, Christmas didn’t exist. Also how we would celebrate the alternative. What would be your idea of a celebration and how would you celebrate it? Purrs Erin Paws […]

Max, how sweet that you bought a bicycle for your meowmy! I like that she celebrates her birthday for a whole month; I try to do the same! My birthday, however, is in a cold month, so I always have changeable weather. My next birthday is a BIG ONE, so what do you suggest that […]
Hi Guys! Did you get the woman a present? We never get our humans a present. We are all the gifts they need! Paxx & Rosie I got her a new bicycle. She thinks she bought it for herself, but we all know the truth. It was me. All me. I let her pick out […]
This weekend the Woman has been off doing things other than paying attention to me and catering to my whims. Worse, the Man is complicit in her inattention by going off and doing things with her. We’ve gotten NO work done, and because of that, no Ask Max Monday this week. Today, though, it’s her […]
I sent you a letter about 2 weeks ago. It could be that I did not send it. It could be that while you were on vacation you missed it. I wrote a very heartfelt letter and I cannot duplicate it here. I will try to give you the jist of the letter. Our cat, […]
