My apologies for today’s abbreviated version of Mews and Nip, we’ll be back with a full version next week. I’ve kind of felt like the kitty shown above all week – I just didn’t have quite enough energy to get it all done!
If you missed any of the stories featured on the Conscious Cat this week, here’s a recap: on Monday, a feline veterinarian offered a comprehensive look at the benefits of raw feeding, on Tuesday, we reviewed a self-warming hooded cat bed, on Wednesday, guest blogger Casey Hersch told us about her visit to the magical Lanai Cat Sanctuary, on Thursday, we featured adorable cat sweatshirts, and on Friday, we introduced you to P.S. I Love You More Than Tuna.
Today’s video of a kitty trying to distract a monk from his meditation made me smile. I guess sometimes, meditating with cats can be challenging!
Have a great weekend!

January 13, 2020 at 2:20 pm (3 months ago)While adopting again after losing a beloved animal companion may ease the pain for some people, that’s not true for everyone. In fact, it can complicate grief if it’s done too soon after a loss. This is not a decision that anyone else can make for you – there are too many factors that play into it to allow for easy guidelines. Perhaps this article will help: https://consciouscat.net/2010/06/30/life-after-loss-getting-a-new-cat/

January 11, 2020 at 4:14 pm (3 months ago)Your web site makes me cry because I had a maine coon tortoiseshell and she passed away at 14 months old with pancreatitis disease. Your kitties remind me of her each time I see them. She died suddenly with no warning and was gone in 3 weeks. How long will it take for my broken heart to heal and for me to stop seeing her everywhere I go? I miss her so much 🙁
