Just Kickin' It - Movie Monday

Here is a short video of Maggie May playing with her new cat nip toy that we won from a giveaway at CatLadyDiary.com. Enjoy!


As you'll see in the video, Maggie May can be kind of an angry nipper sometimes. She likes to whap the other kitties if she thinks they are getting near her nip.

Being Green - Clean+Green Products

Sea-Yu sent us some of their Clean+Green products to try.We received some Litter Box Spray and Carpet and Upholstery Spray.

We have an older lab who's bladder isn't holding up as well as it used to and sometimes she has accidents in the house. The Carpet and Upholstery spray works wonders for removing urine and the odor from the area rug and even from the hardwood floor. Before, when I would use an all purpose cleaner on her urine accidents on the hardwood, there would be a stickiness left behind. No matter how many times I would go over the area, it would still have a sticky residue. Well, not with this stuff, it cleans it so well and doesn't leave a residue or odor! It's fabulous!
The Litter Box Spray works wonders for cleaning up accidents that happen inside and outside the litter box. You can even spray the product on the litter itself to help with odors. It's wonderful!! We highly recommend these products and really wished it was sold at our local Pet Smart. Hopefully, they will start selling it very soon!

Cuts Like A Knife - Get Ready For Halloween

I know some of my friends are crazy about Halloween, so I wanted to share something neat.....Free pumpkin-carving stencils of favorite dog breeds at BHG.comStencil designs by Diane Starkey/property of bhg.com

Better Homes and Gardens is featuring Halloween pumpkin carving stencils, including Dog Breed stencils, which can be traced over a pumpkin to produce a perfectly carved Jack-O-Lantern. Print their handy PDFs, then size on a copier and transfer the design to your pumpkin! Sounds easy enough!

It has been years since I have tried to carve a pumpkin, but this year I just might have to give it a shot. Look! There's even a stencil for the Dixie Dog!Stencil designs by Diane Starkey property of bhg.com

I think Maggie May would much rather help me carve pumpkins (bat pumpkin seeds and filling across the floor) than let me dress her up again, like I did last Halloween!
I have to say, she was quite the cutie pie (hmm....pumpkin pie!) in her Halloween dress!
