Today is #RememberMeThursday, a day where the world shines a light on the importance of pet adoption and orphan pets who are waiting in shelters and rescues. When I worked in human resources, I volunteered for a local animal rescue. I couldn’t save every kitten and puppy from euthanasia, but I could raise money, remove…
By Devon McGrath This week our (home) office got two new coworkers. They’re easily distracted and prone to bickering. I often catch them sleeping on the job and when they’re awake, they think it’s fun to interrupt my video calls. I can’t hold it against them though. They’re young, siblings, and growing up is hard…
I always end the year by writing about my accomplishments, failure, regrets, and resolutions. I love this time of year because the calendar naturally moves me to reflect and take action. This post is all about 2019 accomplishments. Some years my accomplishments are practical. Other years, it’s all about personal growth. This year, it’s a…
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be internet famous? Or what it must be like to have an internet-famous relative, child or even pet? Well, I’d like you to meet Mike Bridavsky. He is the owner of Lil Bub, an internet famous, special needs cat who went viral in 2012. If you don’t…
Hey, everybody. Today is my birthday. If you haven’t heard the details, the rumors are true — I am 44 years old, I have three cats, two sore hips, and one big wish for you to donate to Hustle Up the Hancock in honor of my birthday. What is Hustle Up the Hancock? It’s actually…
I have a mean aunt who lives on the west coast. I’m not sure she would call herself mean, but she’s an elderly woman who is angry with me because I’m basically a worthless family member. And, you know, she’s right. When it comes to my family of origin, I don’t do much for the…
My sweet kitty, Emma, is allergic to the world. This poor boo has been on shots and meds over the past few years to decrease her sensitivity to pollen. Emma’s personality is sweet, though, and she doesn’t give us a hard time about taking medicine. (Well, it’s no more complicated than any other cat. We…
I’m traveling a lot for work, over the next few months, and I’m sorta worried about my cat. Jake is 16 years old. He’s nearly deaf. Has a whole host of problems. We’re coming at him twice a day with medicine. And there’s nothing more that he wants to do than crawl up inside of…
My cat, Roxy, is mesmerized by the M.I.L.F. $ video. If you don’t know anything about it — and why would you because you have taste? — here’s the description from Wikipedia: Set in a candy-colored town called “Milfville,” it features Fergie with a group of famous mothers, including Kim Kardashian West, Chrissy Teigen, Alessandra…
My cats are all about monkey-see-monkey-do. Roxy observed how my cats liked to sit on our porch furniture. She went ahead and claimed a spot — just like the big kids. Roxy likes to poop at a particular time of day. Now Jake wants to poop at that same time. Emma uses the scratching post…
