Meet The Black Cat

Have you wondered who The Black Cat is? It's Fudge! Meet Fudge a.k.a. Fudgy. He is Miss Missey's life partner ;) hehe! Fudgy is reserved and mighty feisty. Although, from time to time enjoys some lovin'. His favorite form of affection is face to face cuddling and does not enjoy laying on humans. He is definitely a cat of boundaries and definitely make it known!

Caturday: SoCal Beach- Santa Monica

A bright day at the beach on a Caturday it's such a cheerful way to start the day! The sun, aside from providing vitamin D, in my opinion also gives a ray of happiness to the soul :)














California is known for its sunny days but, if you're not from around here you may not know that this winter, SoCal has not had much of a winter. With temperatures in the 70's and 80's, beach days are just what the doctor ordered.

The sun... the sand.




The sounds of the waves...



the birds...




are the perfect recipe for a peaceful Caturday. Enjoy the video :)

Happy New Year 2014!

Every new year brings the hope of new beginnings. The peaceful nature of animals always amazes me and i dare say can remind us that we also come from nature. I always wonder whether animals experience love the way humans do. I imagine, if they do love, it must be a pure love. A love without judgment, without discrimination, without deep thinking criticism. In a sense, a blind unconditional love.


Peace in our hearts and love for each other will certainly make this 2014 a great year.

Cat Self-Grooming

Cats are known to frequently self-groom. They maintain their fur nice and clean at all times. Miss Missey is not the exception! When she's not sleeping, she's grooming!




Not only do cats enjoy grooming themselves but they have the purrfect tool for it. A Cat's tongue is covered with filiform papillae, tiny spike-like projections. If a cat ever licks you, you'll feel them! The papillae makes the cat's tongue rough.The filiform papillae allows them to brush and clean their fur, all at the same time! They act much like tiny combs.

Cat Sleeping Pattern

Zzzz...Sleeping...Ssshh...Missey is sleeping.

Missey loves to sleep but so do all cats ;) Cats generally sleep long hours because their activities (jumping, climbing, chasing, hunting insects, etc.) take up a large amount of their energy which they replenish with hours of sleep.

Miss Missey

This is Miss Missey, a sass-ball indoor tuxedo cat who loves to sleep! She is adorable! Very independent yet love-able. She loves to be held by her human mommy and loves to cuddle on her chest. Miss Missey feels safe with her mom who loves her more than words can explain. ♥
