The Cat's Meow


















I’m on my lunch break right now and thought I would blog a bit. Nothing too exciting happening at this moment besides the little pizza bagels that await me in the toaster oven. I’ve been working on html e-newsletter today…and the past few days. I enjoy learning more about html - don’t get me wrong – but when the codes don’t work like they are supposed to it drives me absolutely nuts. I’ve been working on the same problem for the past 3 days and it is driving me crazy. ARRRGH.

Anyway, I decided it was time for a little lunch break and I started doing a little research on cat condos. Yes, I said cat condos. I am bringing my cats back to St. Louis after this weekend and could not be happier about it! I’m nervous about the whole country to the city transition, but I think they will be okay. I stocked up on cat supplies at PetSmart the other day and I swear, I could spend some big bucks there. I really want to get the perfect scratching, climbing, sleeping, and playing contraption for my cats. My parents have a kitty condo (see picture), but look how much fun that cats are having. NONE. They look ticked that someone even created something so absurd for them to entertain themselves with. I need something that actually makes my cats move. I checked out the pretty pricey merchandise at PetSmart and there isn’t that much of a selection, so I took my search to the internet. I’m finding insane contraptions. I had no idea that kitty gyms, tee pees, a freakin house, (on my gawh) a cat cottage, kitty cities, and pueblos even existed. (You must take the time to check out those links!) Where do these cat home designers draw the line?

I’m going to keep shopping around to see if I can find something that is affordable and not insane. Until then, I guess the cats will have to sit on the dreadful couch....
