Hi hi Max Wez has a suggestion for upset tummies. When Angel Boo had thyroid and kidneys he had upset tummy. Our Vet recommended 1/4 of a Pepcid AD, once day..make sure it’s the aspirin free kind. It helped him a lot Your Canuck fanz Oakley and Sugar That’s worth keeping in mind if I […]
My clowder recommends Fancy Feast Savory Centers. I will eat anything, but our geezers (oops I mean wise elders) really like these flavors and they are very soft and wet. The Mom says they are like “cherry cordial chocolates” whatever that is, it sounds nasty but these are not nasty! You might like them. Okay. […]
Oh wise Max, I have a question. What are your favorite Fancy Feast flavors? My humans are starting to bring me Fancy Feast offerings instead of the free range artisanal crap they’ve been dragging in since my beloved Nutro Max Cat went away. I horked up half a can of some tuna and salmon garbage […]
(NOTE: Don’t miss the ADORABLE nose freckles [on the cat, not the MP] in the photo at the bottom!) Earlier this week, Parliament member John Nicolson was in the middle of a committee discussion when his ginger tabby, Rojo, suddenly jumped in front of the camera, waving his tail. Try as he might, Rojo was […]
KITTEHS! Do not try this at home! An exhausted (but very happy) cat needed a glucose drip after mating with at least five females in single night after staff let him out of his cage at a pet hotel when they went home. Xiaopi the Russian Blue was left at a posh cat hotel by […]
First things first: I’m still here. I’m okay. I’m not great, but I’m about as good as a 19 year old dood with bad kidneys and a wonky thyroid can get. My weight is down again; at my highest I was 18 pounds, and now I’m around 9.5, which is a healthy weight for a […]
Usually I help Max answer questions on Sunday night, and we upload the Ask Max column before heading off to bed. This week we honestly did not feel like even checking email to see if there were any questions for him; while I sat in the living room, he was in the master bedroom closet, […]
It was the youthful combination of turkey bacon, dry food, broccoli and a little bit of red wine every two days that kept him going to the grand old age of 38. This particular resident was a cat named Creme Puff, who died in 2005. While that’s an impressive age for a cat, the official Guinness World […]
In a presidential election year, there’s always a push to get people registered to vote. For one Atlanta family, that push got a little interesting. Ron Tims said he checked his mail Wednesday and found a voter registration application addressed to Cody Tims — his cat, who died 12 years ago. “A great cat, indoor […]
:::knock knock knock::: everyone? :::knock knock knock::: everyone? :::knock knock knock::: everyone? Y’all out there? You okay? Maybe in a food coma trying to turn the Quarantine 15 into the Quarantine 20? I can see that. I know my people aren’t moving around as much since they’re home all the time now and there have […]
OK, I know what you’re thinking…cats hate violin music–cat gut strings and all. But when Elijah McClain serenaded them with music, these shelter cats not only loved the music but looked forward to these musical interludes. They’ll no longer get them because McClain was murdered by police. McClain was a sweet law-abiding massage therapist who […]
Hello! It is Cat Scouts Mango and Willow… as I, Mango explained in an earlier email, we lost our beloved Sisfurr Aspen recently at age 15. She stopped eating. And she rarely went to our Mom to Meow and say that she was very sick and to tell Mom she had stopped eating and drinking. […]
And those Feline Zoombombs just keep coming! If you haven’t done it yet, it’s time to up your game, kittehs!
Cats have done it again–wresting attention away from a live TV feed to the much more interesting behind-the-scenes action. Just watch! feat
Win in the hek are we gonna git the howse bak to ourselfs? Having the peeps here all the time is gitting on are nervs. Good question, dood. It’s annoying as all get out, isn’t it? And I would know because the Woman has always worked from home and SHE’S ALWAYS HERE. It sounds like […]
A couple of streaming services for cats have emerged, purrfect for helping Fluffy make it through her shelter-in-place nightmare in one piece. More than one cat has complained to me that their attempts to make their peeps’ zoom meetings more interesting have not been appreciated. And their helpful suggestions of how to spend time locked […]
This is National Pet Appreciation Week, or so Alexa told me. These days, the pet I appreciate most is Homer. So today I’ll subject you to a tail tale I’d previously written describing Homer’s gotcha story: Homer is black and nobody wanted him. Not even me. A few years ago, I adopted Reno, a flame-point […]
Hi Max, Two years after (almost to the day) our dearest Spider crossed the rainbow bridge, she sent Gracie and me a new friend. It’s a boy, a middle-aged meezer dude! His origin story is as fuzzy as his toe bean sprouts and apparently he’s recovering from his years on the streets (after some help […]
You’d be hard-pressed to find a rabid cat lover who hasn’t been enchanted by the vintage illustrations of Louis Wain. He created a whimsical world of wide-eyed cats, each scene rich with detail and activity. As a cat artist, I’m amazed at the number of cats featured in each of his illustrations as well as […]
It’s almost Taco Tuesday. What kind of tacos should I order? Taco Bell ones give me the [redacted] TOONA You should get TOONA TOONA TACO TUESDAY You’re welcome. = = = I was reading “Purrfect Advice” by Nic Saint, and saw this: “Well, we could start a column with pets writing in and asking questions, […]
