Bugsy - Time to defrost already! 02/05/2011
Hi Furriends, Bugsy here! Ok, let me just tell you... Time to defrost the land big guy up there! We are all stuck in the house, there is tons of the wet sticky white stuff outside, the windows have been closed since forever, and we are just over it! Well... I gotta say, it was funny today though - The mailman finally showed up to pick up a package (was waiting for him since toosday!), and as soon as meowmy opened the door, Lucky dashes outside... imagine the shock! She was so confused! All the cold and the sticky white stuff on the floor! Meowmy said that she just stood in there, "frozen" like the weather, with a blank look on her face, as though she was asking what in the World is going on here? Where am I? There you go Lucky... Good lesson for you to not run away like that you silly girl! Here is a picture of our courtyard... underneath this fluffy white stuff there is a good 2-3" of solid ice... and that is the problem! The roads around our home are closed and meowmy is running out of hooman food... I just hope she doesn't eat our food! Oh nos! PeeSS: My health continues the same, meaning, I still have the runs... I will give a better update tomorrow... I am ok besides my poop problem though; I just wanted to take a little break from talking about health issues so much... Hugs, Bugsy 4 Comments Hello furriends, Hope here! It is so cold outside, you can't believe it! I think we are not in Texas anymore! I think a wind blew us away just like in the Wizard's movie and took us to the North Pole! My goodness furriends, Brrrrr... Brrrrr... With the wind it feels like 0F outside! Thank Goodness we have a warm home with lots of blankets and each other to cuddle.... But I feel sorry for all the little furry critters out there, kitties and woofies... Furriends, let's purr and purr extra hard for them these cold days! Hugs, Hope~ P.S.: Meowmy wants to say happy birthday to her daddy! Happy purrfday grandpa Roberto! Product Review - The KatKabin! 01/08/2011
Hello furriends, meowmy here! Today I am going to be reviewing the KatKabin, an outdoor cat house cute enough to also be used inside of any household! Without further ado, here are our impressions of it: The KatKabin arrives in a BIG box - the box is impressive, but surprisingly, it is pretty light... The whole thing probably weighted a little over 12lbs or so. When I opened the box, I was immediately wow'ed by the beautiful bright pink color. I am not too into bright colors myself, but the shade of the pink was just SO cute!! There is no padding on the box, and the KatKabin just comes wrapped in a plastic, as seen below - there was no damage at all, the design of the product itself makes it perfect for shipping without requiring any extra padding... Inside of the box, you find the KatKabin, an insulating cushion pad with a removable washable cover, and a front cover flap as pictured below. Also note the cute cat-face design - the KatKabin even has cute ears and whiskers!!! As you can see below the entrance is not flat, there is an indentation of several inches, so the front entry is covered, which protects the inside chamber from the rain, sun, wind and snow. The KatKabin also features an aerodynamic design with oval sides allowing the wind to go through it without turning it or carrying it away. The Front, back, and connecting middle strip also completely cover the plastic joints, making it further weather-proof. The cat flap is thick, sturdy and very clear. It is also quite easy to install. The only assembly required on this product is inserting the cushion and the cat flap. I suggest using the KatKabin without the flap for a few days until the kitty is used to the unit, then installing it on. I can definitely see how it would help to protect the kitty from the hash elements, especially during the winter. The KatKabin is elevated from the ground to keep the kitty protected from the cold and heat, and the feet has holes on it to make it easy to securing it to the ground, front porch, etc. If you live in an extremely windy area, this feature will come quite handy for you. There are ventilation holes on the back, so the air circulates nicely throughout. Now the very important part: the kitties' impressions: Since the moment I took it out of the box and put it in my living room yesterday, the KatKabin has been occupied non-stop by my three cats. If they could form a line to use it, the would! As I type this review, no joking - Lucky is laying inside of it, and Hope is trying to get into it... She looks quite disappointed that Lucky took her place! It has been a huge success. Earlier today it was in my bedroom and I went to pick it up to move to the living room... As soon as I tried to lift it, I felt it pretty heavy... Out jumps Bugsy! The KatKabin has been used 100% of the time by all of them, no exception - this has never happened with any other cat bed in the house, aside from the cat tree, but then that doesn't qualify as a bed. The KatKabin is a great product for both outside and inside kitties. It provides shelter, safety, and it protects the kitties from the elements. The design is quite cool, the colors are awesome, and it is definitely kitty approved. The body plastic is not very thick, but it is no doubt quality plastic; I do not see it getting damaged easily, especially considering the oval design. One thing I would recommend for those living in very cold weather who would be using this outside, is getting the extra insulating liner they sell on their site, the Winter Warmer for KatKabin DezRez. That way the kitty would be completely protected, cozy and warm during the coldest of the winters. I think the standard is enough for rain, wind, sun, and a mild winter, but not insulated enough for harsh, colder winters... In those cases you will need extra insulation. But that is not a big deal, as they do have that available... Just make sure to get it if that is your case! The Overall dimensions are: L: 22" x W: 16" x H: 13" And exciting news Furriends! The good folks at KatKabin offered us to donate a KatKabin in Divine Purple to a Cat Blogosphere Auction!!! KC will be announcing that soon.... Oh, it is SO pretty! You can see it, and read about it in here. *Disclaimer - KatKabin gave me a free KatKabin DezRez for reviewing purposes. We have atomic fleas here in Texas! 03/08/2010
Hi, Lucky here! I knew it! Remember when meowmy had the brilliant (not) idea to let us experience the great newness of our first snow? Well... we had been inside only for a long time, so not treated for fleas or anything... Fast forward a few weeks and ta-da! What do we have? FLEAS! Meowmy caught one flea on me! It took me a whole five minutes in a frigid frozen outside experiencing the great wet snow.... and what am I left with? Fleas and a run of stinky Revolution! What's worst, I am sure that flea has been on me for quite a few days... Oh boy! Has anybody ever told you we have atomic bugs in Texas? Oh yeah, psss they could care less about a feet and half of snow! By the way, Here is what my friend Simon the cat has to say about Snow - I tend to agree with him now - completely senseless! Our First Snow! 02/12/2010
Hi, Lucky here! There was this weird white, cold (brrrr) stuff falling from the skies non stop yesterday, and for some reason meowmy thought we would love to play in it... (I know, humans, right?) Well, Hope, since her traumatizing feral days, never went out again, so once the door open, she hid. Brother Bugsy did venture out after a loooooonnnnngggg time standing on the door with meowmy calling... and calling and calling... Once I saw that the white stuff didn't do any harm to him, I went there to check it out... But really... it is pretty, but not thanks! Here are some pictures, and the videos... One of the videos is too long, sorry about that :) | Our cat blogTranslate this page
