Cold California Mornings!

With the cooler weather (finally) coming, these boys have been obsessed with cuddling under the covers with me in the mornings! It makes it really hard to get out of bed with these two warm bodies pressed up right against you!

Jack is Missing!!! Stolen Teacup Maltese dog, Studio City, California

A friend had her dog STOLEN from her apartment - I can't even imagine - please, please, please, repost this, forward, email to all your friends.  You never know who might have seen him, or has heard something.  This happened in Los Angeles, so especially if you live in SoCal, send to everyone you know.  Jack and his story has been in several news stories over the past week too.

Marley is Chubby, and I mean that in a Loving Way - Merrick Purrfect Bistro to the Rescue!!!

So I finally took the boys in to the Vet a few weeks ago.  I had been getting those reminder cards in the mail for several months, and finally made the appointment.

Reggie weighs a svelte 7.9 pounds, but Marley now weighs in at almost 11 pounds!  I have no idea how that happened, I guess middle age is hitting him (he turned 6 in July). 

So the vet told me that it is easier for cats to lose weight on WET food, which I didn't know.  Problem is, Marley isn't a big fan of wet food.  He usually licks the juices off, and that's it, whereas Reggie grazes on wet food, but eventually finishes it all gone.  The vet said that the wet food keeps them fuller longer, makes sense I guess, so I thought I'd give it a try.  Along with giving Marley more wet food, I also cut down on the amount of dry food I leave out during the day.  (Sphynx cats graze all day long because their metabolism is a lot faster than other cats and they need to eat in order to keep warm).

Well, my good friend Chewy.com sent us some Merrick Purrfect Bistro to try, and surprisingly Marley took to it more than other wet food I've previously tried; it is the pate style, which both boys like, and had just enough juices to get Marley's attention and he even ate most of it too! 

Marley has been giving me those strange meows, probably because he isn't getting as much dry food, but sorry cat, you need to lose weight!  

 Here is a photo of Marley from a photo shoot he did earlier in 2013, as you can see, the "pooch" needs to go!  (Poor Marley, he's probably going to hate me for sharing this photo!)

If you haven't discovered Chewy.com yet, get on it!  Super fast shipping and great variety of brands!  After all, it gets delivered right to your front door.  I don't know about you, but I hate it when I get home from work only to discover I'm out of cat food and have to run out to get some!

First experience with cat grass!

I think it's a hit.

Morning routine!

Who doesn't love the sun?! Especially these hairless gentlemen!

My three Sphynx boys...

Review: Natural Balance Treats from Chewy.com!

Back in February 2012 I posted here about Chewy.com.  Well, if you've never used them before, they are a fantastic company with prompt shipping of all your pet supply needs!  Recently they sent me Natural Balance Perfect Bites to try!  My boys go crazy over these treats! 

As you can see, they LOVE them! 

So go ahead and head on over to Chewy.com and see what other treats they hold in store for your pet!  They ship for free on every order over $49 and it usually only takes a few days to receive!  That's one less trip to the store! 

It's a bird, it's a plane....

It's a two-headed Sphynx!

Happy 5th Birthday Reggie!!!

Can't believe Reggie is already 5!!! It's been a long road with his asthma and heart murmur, but he's totally worth it! We love you "pookie"!!!

Professional Photo Shoot

Long story short, but an awesome photographer, Christina Gandolfo, contacted me through Social Media and asked if she could take some photos of the kitties!  Of course I said yes!!  Here are a few of the great photos she was able to capture...it was actually really exhausting because I took the boys to her studio, so they were not in their normal environment and they were all over the place!
