RVing with Cats – Not So Easy
If you’re thinking that RVing with cats is a great idea, let me relate to you a real-life example to illustrate that it’s not so easy as you might think.

For no apparent reason, it…
Attack of the Electric Coal Skink
Sunday night, while camping in our RV, I saved Ol’ Fuzz Face from the attack of the electric coal skink.

On Valentine’s Day 2019, I baked a most delicious cat-themed pie to surprise my two humans, Blondie and Fuzzy. To this day, they recall the joy my gesture of affection brought to their hearts. They loved my Valentine Pie and they loved me for what I did. I must confess, the original inspiration came from Samantha Meyers and her recipe in my favorite magazine, Catster.…
