🐾 Smokey’s Diary – Stranger Snugs

Okay, so my mom is watching Stranger Things—one episode a day. She says it’s so she’ll be caught up when the new season drops. Honestly? Legendary level genius, I say. I don’t know where she disappears to sometimes, but when she’s home? It’s awesome. I get extra snugs, bonus rubs, and prime cat tree lounging […]

🐾 Reggie’s Diary – The blanket crisis

I’m not saying there’s a problem… But there’s a problem. There are not enough blankets in this bed. I’ve checked. Twice. I even burrowed. Still cold. What are my humans thinking? This is Wisconsin. It’s practically the Arctic in here. Thankfully, Mom gets it. She turned the heat on the other day. I saw it. […]

Weight lifting or scuba diving!

What is your favorite form of physical exercise? … Neither of which I am allowed to do medically anymore. Ever since I got the COVID shots, I got blood clots, and I’m on blood thinners for life. So… No scuba diving. Weight lifting has come to a serious halt as well. Doctor said I am […]

🐾 Hiro’s Diary – “If I Fits, I Sits”

Today was a revelation. I, Hiro the Elegant, the Regal, the Supreme, have discovered a throne most unexpected: the mop bucket. At first glance, “this thing” appeared mundane. A peasant’s tool. But upon further inspection—and a daring leap—I nestled in. And lo! It hugs my majesty’s figure just right. The curve of the plastic, the […]

🍂 Reggie’s Fall Diary – “The Pillow Warmer Chronicles” 🍂

The leaves are crunchy, the air is chilly, and my hiney? Still sensitive. I don’t understand why Mom and Dad get so upset when I sit on things. Outside, the concrete is freezing, so I sit on Arya. She’s warm and squishy. Inside, I seek out the softest, coziest spot in the house: Mom’s pillow. […]

🐾 Ace’s Diary – October

Dear Diary, It’s me, Ace — professional mischief-maker and nighttime fetch champion. Last night was a blast. Dad thought he could sleep through the night… ha! I gave him a few polite meows, but he didn’t budge. So I did what any respectable cat would do — I made biscuits on his face until he […]

🐾Willow’s Diary – October 25, 2025

Today was one of those days where the sun felt warm, but my heart didn’t. I stretched out on the patio couch, belly up, legs in the air like Bolt used to do when he wanted belly rubs and mischief. I miss him. I miss him so much. Bolt was my best buddy. He was […]
