The Mysterious Feline

Cats are amazing creatures that have been a part of human lives for thousands of years. They are known for their independence and mysterious behavior.

Unique Features

Cats have retractable claws, meaning they can extend and retract their claws as needed. This helps them hunt and climb with ease.

Communication

Cats communicate through body language, vocalizations, and even scent marking. They have a wide range of meows, purrs, and hisses to express themselves.

The Purr-fect Hunter

Cats are natural hunters and have excellent hunting skills. They have sharp teeth and claws that help them catch prey.

Nocturnal Creatures

Cats are crepuscular, which means they are most active during dawn and dusk. This is when they do most of their hunting.

Peanut butter oatmeal dog treats

Peanut butter oatmeal dog treats Today, I am super excited to share my techniques for making another truly wholesome dog treat with you. After-all, your furry companions deserve healthy food, so that they can be their best selves. These pup treats are the perfect snack to make ahead of time for your cuddly pooch as a reward for their love and companionship, obedience, potty-training, or for any other training in general.  My fur baby seems to think that the treats taste better when they're made in different cute shapes. So, I use three different cookie cutters when I make these dog treats. Plus, using different cookie cutter sizes also allows me to make good use of the leftover dough pieces.

DIY pet bed

DIY pet bed Do you have a fur baby that sometimes has to sleep in a kennel, during times when you're away from home? This is a simple, no-sew DIY kennel bed project that anyone can accomplish.  I timed myself when making my pooch this DIY kennel bed. It actually took me about forty-two minutes from start to finish. My almost eight-year-old boxer has to be placed in her dog's kennel during thunderstorms, or else she simply goes loco. We purchased two different kennel mats for her, but for some unknown reason, she doesn't like either of them. Instead of her using them to lay on, she wads them up, and literally kicks them to the corner of her kennel. Since Princess (my dog) isn't getting any younger, she really doesn't need to be lying on the hard floor of the kennel. So, I came up with this DIY kennel bed idea for her. The length and width of my dog's kennel is 54 inches x 37 inches. So, I cut out two pieces of soft material that size, then I cut strips along the ...
