Cat and Kitten Zone Blog

Hey, do me a favor. Remind me not to pursue that dream I have of becoming a professional pet photographer. I was so excited that all three cats were up on the window sill that apparently is some sort of cat magnet. What I like about cats is how much they mean to each other.

Hey, what do you know? June’s got pictures of her cats on her blog! Hunh.

Ever since the cat I didn’t like at first but ended up totally loving died , wherever we go we see a cat. I am not talking just any cat but in total General Hospital style, a cat that looks just like Annie! It’s really weird but also kind of comforting. And, it’s extra weird because it’s never a situation where someone opens a door and a cat runs out. It’s always that a cat appears out of thin air or is in a totally unexpected place. Of course I take photos of the cats to prove I didn’t imagin

We’ve mentioned Kahimi Karie a few times on Click Opera over the last week or so, showing old pictures of her from 1996 or noting that she’s recording a new album . But there may be bigger Kahimi news — or at least Kahimi gossip — coming out of Japan. One of Kahimi’s oldest friends, Kenji Takimi , boss of Cru-el Records, (the label which released I Am A Kitten ), made a very strange blog posting on Monday. Entitled Life’s hard and then you die , this posting lamented the passing of

[Note: If you hate, dislike, or have no emotional attachment to cats, run now. I mean it. Shut down your browser window, close the lid on your laptop and flee.

You know her face…Helen Thomas has covered every President since JFK as a member of the American media. She asks the hard questions, the often unpopular questions. She was a tough criticizer of George W. Bush and once famously stated ‘The day Dick Cheney is going to run for President, I’ll kill myself.’ But she’s certainly not putting on kitten gloves for Barack Obama’s administration, either.

The Dunderheads by Paul Fleischman, illustrated by David Roberts Miss Breakbone hates children. She is harsh, rude, and cruel. But worst of all, she is also a teacher. She calls her class Dunderheads, and one day goes too far in taking away a broken cat from one of the children. His nickname was Junkyard and he had found it in the trash, a perfect gift for his feline-loving mother. When Miss Breakbone basically dared Junkyard to try to get it back, the class turned to Einstein, a boy wit

I’ve never experienced “ Radioactive Cats ,” Sandy Skoglund’s 1981 installation, in person, but I love the photographs I’ve seen of it: a gray kitchen, with an old man and woman, and everywhere, cats, painted neon green, crawling, writhing, looking lanky and predatory and anything but cute.

Lately I’ve begun to think that “Radioactive Cats” suitably predicted the status of the feli

This recent survey from DIMSDRIVE Research into pets had interesting information regarding insurance, but sadly the number of pets per person were not reported, a figure that would have helped in understanding some of the numbers. Demographics Between the 11th and 26th of March 2009 10,501 members of the DIMSDRIVE monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. The sample was 50:50 male and female (one more female than male, but she was lost in rounding), 1.1% were in their
