Thanks!

Make sure the harness distributes the force equally around the shoulders and belly. Don't even attempt it with a simple collar.

There will likely be some pulling as they adjust to it but it's entirely possible. People have to train dogs to walk on a leash. Cats are no different. It won't be natural to them but consistent and patient training can work wonders.

This is a pretty good tutorial on it.

I caught the most hysterical video this morning!

Killer, who weighs in at maybe 5 pounds but thinks he's the biggest badass ever when it comes to bones, informed Bella that she was DONE CHEWING on her yak bone by running over, showing one tooth, and placing his tiny little Cheetoh-smelling paw on top of her bone.

She immediately turned her head away from him and then got up and moved away. She's 70 pounds! She could easily sit on him and crush him but she's fine letting him rule the roost around here. LOL

The baby kitty finally got off my lap and is laying on the window seal enjoying the sushine. The kitten is rolled up in the bed sheets taking a quiet nap.

They both have enjoyed me being home so much this holiday weekend.

After a 10 day scare with the new kitten not wanting to play, eat much or drink water we are on the mend. Though found out she is definitely younger than said to be. Shes barely 10 weeks old not the 13 they claimed her to be. And has decided I am her momma, she follows me everywhere and until yesterda would only eat if I was right there. She was her playful spunky self this morning and I am so relieved and happy to have our little ninja kitten back.

The baby kitty gets so excited when I pick up the light pointer. She knows the sound when I pick it up. She can still run up a wall chasing it at 11 years old and very stout.

The kitten is slowly learning that the light pointer is big fun.

Tiny Dog got a big comb-out and a bath today. A friend came over to help me, so it wasn't nearly the chore that it can be. Clean doggie!

Diva Kitty was just snooty. Your day is coming soon, kitty!
