Profile
- My website or blog:
- http://www.aspca.org
- Proud pet parent of:
- Orange sibling kitties Bruce and Maow, who were born April of 2006
- How we met:
- I adopted them at a tiny, run-down shelter operated by a crazy cat lady.
- Pet likes:
- Bruce likes watching me cook (and trying to steal food).
Maow likes to sunbathe.
- Pet dislikes:
- - Being shooed from the table. Again and again and again and again.
- A neat, tidy litter box area. When they see it they must undo it right away.
-My lack of response to their breakfast wakeup calls
- Pet’s favorite spot:
- Bruce plops himself down on a random spot in the hallway, and Maow favors the top of the couch. Of course, both of them make themselves at home on my dining room table.
- Pet’s favorite toy:
- Maow loves her 50 cent Spongebob squishies. Bruce steals the caps from my water bottles.
- Pet’s silliest habit:
- They both dart around the apartment and lightning speed, then stop to lick themselves.
- Pet’s sweetest moments:
- -My cats have "Elyse is sad" sensors. They come to cuddle with me when I need them the most.
-They greet me at the door when they come home, like doggies. I'd like to think it's not just because they want food.
- I crack up when my pet:
- Crawls into a suitcase in protest when someone in the house is taking a trip.
- My pet is unique because:
- Neither can accept that they're merely domestic indoor cats. They're pretty sure they're wildcats and any second now they will finally hunt and kill the pigeons they see out the window.

Yoga Cat
Last night I was home doing my yoga video (yes, video, I'm old school), which never ceases to amaze my orange girl, Maow. As soon as I get the mat out she comes over to scratch it and sniff it.
At one point I was bent over in downward dog (where your body forms an upside down V) and she actually came under me and started stretching! I kid you not!! I had to stop for a sec and give her furry head a kiss!
Don't You Love it When Cheaper is Better?
I'm very pleased with myself at the moment. In the past I bought beautiful -- and pricier -- Christmas ball ornaments for my tree. And of course, last year many of them shattered at the paws of my kittens.
This year, at the 99 cent store, I bought Christmas balls that are perfectly lovely and they don't shatter! So now when I hear my cats stealing balls from off the tree at 3 A.M., I can smile knowing they're safe (the cats and the balls) and enjoying the holiday season in the…

Kitty Kolor Koordinating
I recently shopped for a new futon, and made sure to pick a color that would complement my 2 cats' lovely orange hues--since they spend so much time lounging there.
Then I realized...oh wait. I'm actually picking out furniture that would look good with my cats.
Are pets just extra cute and cuddly home accessories?

Maybe you can start a Forum on pet food. I didn't see any discussion on the Forums for that.
Pet owners should know that commercial cheap dog food made with wheat flour or corn causes stinky gas & diahrhea in many pets and pet foods filled with "meat byproducts" which means the free protein is dead dogs & cats. Makes commercial pet food manufacturers rich, with all these free ingredients. We knew someone that picks up killed dogs & killed cats for free from shelters, unsold pet shop puppies, old pets, sick pets & unwanted pets from vets, and delivers the load of dead dogs & cats to premium pet food manufacturers to use for protein in premium pet foods, using the name Meat ByProducts in the ingredients list. Sick huh. Avoid Meat ByProducts because your feeding your pet killed dogs & cats.
We didn't know this all these years. How sick. Others should be aware. I wish someone had told us. For years, our pets ate the unfortunate dead dogs & cats. So many don't know. There are many great pet foods that don't use meat byproducts that you can feed your pet.
Maybe the shelters have to use the cheap pet foods to keep the animals at the shelter alive, but once adopted, they should be fed a better food.
Helpful info for members.
Thanks,
