Gizmo’s first admirer happens to be a real dog. Holbein lives an artist loft and is named after Hans Holbein the Younger, court painter of Henry VIII. He’s only three months old, but he swears he can write, so we’re giving him a chance to be our first dogger (dog blogger). He’s growing up fast, so check back often.

(PROZAC PET NATION)Back to the subject of the puddle in the bathtub. Better make that two puddles. As mentioned in a previous blog, there were extenuating circumstances surrounding the incident that led up to Gizmo mistaking the bathtub for a litter box—again.
First, let me back up a little. One of the major reasons why I started this blog is because the very idea a cat can be toilet trained is rather fascinating. But mainly it is because cats that aren’t litter-box perfect are too often abandoned to shelters. Indiscriminate elimination is one of the major reasons why they’re there, according the ASPCA. Of these, an estimated 71 percent are never re-homed. Instead, their fate is lethal injection according to a study 1997 study by National Counsel on Pet Population. I won’t go into the numbers; they’re way too depressing. (more…)
