MAX MAX!! Where is your column this week??? Inquiring minds want to know!! Dood, I have no idea what happened last week. If you’d asked me, I would have sworn I’d uploaded a column last Sunday night. Someone (and it had to be the Woman, because it certainly couldn’t have been me) had a massive […]
Max, I just finished reading your poetry book. You dictate so well. I was crying by the end though, even though you probably don’t want that. How did the woman manage to type your poems as I assume she often took breaks to laugh or cry? The Woman has a cold, black heart and nothing […]
Max…. Any idea where we can get kitty sized ear plugs? The mom says it is “football season” again when those guys on tv seem to take forever chasing a ball around a big green field. And man can our mom yell at the TV. THANKS Amazon. Amazon is the answer for everything. If they […]
Deer Max – will there be a book signing anywhere near my house? Also, will mine boogerhead brother ever stop wandering around the house screaming his bloody head off about nothing? Book signings require that I leave my house, which I am generally opposed to, so…nope, don’t think it will happen. I’ll sign books, just […]
And why the heck not? ME. All ME. Dear Max, What did you do this week? Love, Max Well, Max, since you asked…this week my new book, THE EMPEROR OF SAN FRANCISCO was released! This is my first piece of fiction and I am very, very excited about it. Also, I am very, very nervous […]
I’m sure you’ve told this story before, but how did you come to live with The Woman and The Man? Thanks. Gabriel’s Mom Long story short, I was kind of a rescue. When I was a tiny kitten I lived with friends of the Younger Human who couldn’t afford me, so he brought me home […]
new book huh?? concats! about this election thingy….when is it gonna end? the mom lady is using some new creative HBO werds that she says we aren’t allowed to repeat…which we don’t think it fair….and says it is all due to this election. Oh holy Cheetos, the election krap can’t end soon enough. We have […]
Ok, so there weren’t any questions for this week, so ya know what? I’m gonna engage in a little self-promotion, that’s what. A lot of you know that the Woman is a writer and she’s written a couple or six novels all on her own, and she helped me put together a few of my […]
Dear Max, Once again I need help in training my human. Now she says she will re-tire in a few years. OK so she needs new tires just get them, don’t tell me about it. I only go in the car once get a year anyway, Bast willing. Then she says when she re-tires she […]
Hey Max, I can see how you and Buddah are such unique and sometimes demanding cats that the Woman might want an animal free period (at least until they decide they must have a cat in the house again – or maybe an elephant). I have a question about my crankypants cat. I never do […]
Dear Max, As purr usual you were right! We tried out the elephant or should I say smellephant? We rented a nice one just to try it out but we couldn’t even get her through the front door and she missed her family so she went back home. Maybe when the time is right I’ll […]
Sound advice, as always, Max. What would kitties ever do without you? They’d have to Google a lot, which means they would get more fur stuck in the keys of the computer, which means people would be upset a lot more…I have to live to, like, 100 just to keep peace throughout 4,321,593 households. Max, […]
Dear Max, Happy belated birfy day. Yesterday we were busy and couldn’t write to you because my sisfur had to go to the stabby lady house and they decided to keep her, well only until she’s better. She stopped eating and was dehydrated. She even lost two pounds. Her white count was high and they […]
Today, doods, I want you to go out and have some fun. Or stay inside and have some fun. Just have fun. Today is my birthday, and my birthday should be a day for fun. Y’all know that the People never really expected me to live this long. Just before I turned 4, when […]
Dear Max, Weez kitties have a situazun up in da house. It got nice and warm when The springs sprung, but then the propellers on da ceiling started making it windy in here. Now there is frickin freezing air coming out of the vents thingies. Humommy says she gots the hots waves but kitties is […]

Thanks Max – that is helpful and I will add the “no” without using a pointy finger in hopes that he associates the word and me leaving with a behavior that means he doesn’t get attention. He’s not a big fan of high places, but can mostly be found in a medium height cat tree […]
Max, the human used to wake up at 6 and that was breakfast time. Now the wakes up at 5, but breakfast is still at 6! Should we not get our breakfast earlier, since the human wakes up earlier? Once a person’s feet hit the floor, it’s food o’clock. Period. In fact, it’s AFTER food […]

Hi hi Max Wez got questions. Do kitties meow in different languages? I think so. Cats in Japan sound more like “nyan” and in Germany it’s more like “miau” (mee-ah) and in France it’s “miaou,” (meYAH) and in Russia it’s “woof.” Do gurl kitties know dey iz gurls an Boyz know dey iz boys? Maybe […]

It’s not just for determining if your ancestors were Vikings, but it can tell if your cat was a Viking as well.

Did You Know… Mainzer Cats Were Not Drawn by Mainzer
Last week, I told you the background behind the sad life of Louis Wain, a prominent turn-of-the-century artist whose cats captivated Edwardian England. As his style evolved, his cats began wearing clothes, no doubt influencing the art depicted on what are popularly known as Mainzer Cat postcards. What gets lost in the shuffle is the […]

Ask Max Monday: Cheese, Please
Max, I just finished reading your poetry book. You dictate so well. I was crying by the end though, even though you probably don’t want that. How did the woman manage to type your poems as I assume she often took breaks to laugh or cry? The Woman has a cold, black heart and nothing […]

We were pleased to meet the felines from the blog Library Board of Cats late last year. (You can also find them on Doggie and Kitty Caperz.) They agreed to sit down with us so we can learn more about them as individuals, but the interview was delayed as we each had a furry member […]
