  • Why My Cats Are Water Snobs

    My cats won’t drink from their water bowl if it’s been sitting for more than two hours. They’re not thirsty—they’re *discerning*.

    After some research (and a lot of rejected water bowls), I learned many cats prefer running water. It’s instinctual—running water in nature is often cleaner.

    So now I use a small pet fountain, and they love it. No more judging stares. No more paw-dipping protests.

    Pro tip: If your cat is ignoring their water, try a fountain or refresh it more often. They might not be fussy—just smart.

  • When Mittens ‘Helps’ Me Work

    I was trying to finish some writing yesterday when Mittens decided my keyboard was the perfect place for a nap. Not beside it. Not near it. *On it.*

So there I was, typing around a softly snoring ball of fluff who occasionally reached out a paw to “help” me press the backspace key.

    I didn’t get much done. But I did get plenty of purrs. And honestly? That’s better.

Sometimes the best productivity hack is a cat who believes in you. 💻🐾

  • The Case of the Missing Toy Mouse

    You know that little fuzzy mouse toy I bought last week? Well, it’s gone. Not under the couch. Not behind the bookshelf. I even checked the fridge (don’t ask).

    But here’s the weird part: this morning, I found it… in my shoe. Not just any shoe—my left rain boot. Why? Was it a gift? A warning? A statement about my fashion sense?

    Whiskers just stared at me from across the room, blinking slowly. I think I’m being judged.

    Moral of the story: Cats are tiny, furry secret agents. And my boots are now part of the mission.
