Cats are independent and inquisitive little beasts. I often wonder where my cat Max goes when we let him outside and he comes back hours later covered in burrs and with leaves stuck in his tail. He also likes to hide in the house when it’s time to go visit the vet, leaving us to

This is Max. He’s a stray cat that we’ve had for about 12 years or so. We think he’s part Maine Coon because he’s so large and has some of the characteristics of that breed. He acts more like a dog than a cat and likes to follow us around indoors and out. Max is diabetic

When I first saw theKickstarter project for the Opets leash, I thought it was another quirky product would make a fun news post. But when I started thinking more about it, I remembered when I had a Corgi. Walking Kasey wasn’t the easiest task because she always liked to yank on the leash that was

We have had pet cams around our house for at least 15 years. We set up the cameras to find out what the animals do all day. (Sleep, mostly. No surprise there.) My cameras of choice tend to be Internet Protocol (IP) cameras, which include their own web server and don’t need to be connected

My dog, Teddy, seems to shed year round. That means those darn dog hairs get everywhere, even in his water bowl. He won’t drink water with hair in it, and it’s a pain trying to make sure his water meets his standards so he’ll drink enough during the day. And that’s with me here with
