On Forever Midnight
I have waited a while to update this blog for so many reasons. However, the main reason is that on Sept. 6, 2024, my baby Midnight crossed the rainbow bridge. The week prior, she was doing well. She was eating great and acting like herself. Suddenly, she was getting sick and not eating much. Of…

On Save the Kitties
Exactly three years, I found the rescue that would change my life. On July 24, 2021, I saw a local rescue that I hadn’t heard of was having a grand opening party and Zach and I decided to go on a Saturday. It was small shelter and a few ladies were there during the opening.…

On Two Decades of Midnight
Midnight has officially turned 20 years old! That is huge for a kitty! Midnight and I have gone through so much since I first found her while in high school! She’s lived in every place with me – my mom’s house, my first apartment, a duplex we rented, our condo, and our current house. She’s…

On the Amsterdam Cat-fĂŠ
I recently went to The Netherlands and got to spend a Sunday afternoon exploring. I’ve been to Amsterdam before, but I had a very specific mission that Sunday: to visit a cat cafe. I am no stranger to cat cafes. When I used to visit Budapest, Hungary regularly, I went to several cat cafes. In…

On Stray to Stay
Shortly after Zach and I got married, a new cat started showing up in our neighborhood. Call it foreshadowing, an omen, and/or a blessing. I was thrilled! He was a blue tabby and he was so friendly. Naturally, I started feeding him and he seemed very eager to walk into our house. He would walk…

On a lighter note…
I had no idea how much maintenance a Persian cat needed until Zach [my husband and the father of my cats] and I moved in together. When Zach and I moved in together, he moved in to the duplex I was renting and brought Max with him. Max is a classic tabby Persian. He has…
