Recently we reviewed Chicken Soup for the Soul: I Can’t Believe My Dog Did That! So it is only fair we give Cats some love. Chicken Soup for the Soul: I Can’t Believe My Cat Did That! is full of 101 stories about our feline friends The stories are funny, heartwarming and inspirational, a real treat for the cat lover. We share our life with a Pixie Bobcat named Max who is the most lovable cat in the world that it is almost annoying at times because he wants to be right on my all the time, yet I wouldn’t trade him. The cat owner will definitely relate to the stories in this book.

If you have pets, you probably have accidentally kicked the water dish and had it spill all over the floor. A mess right? In my case it would happen and my toddler would run in while I was getting the mop and fall, because it made the tile floor so slippery. Now, I have a crying toddler, a soaked floor, and I am a mommy that needs something better. Enter Neater Feeder, this elevated feeding station is the answer to my problem. The Neater Feeder comes in sizes for cats to large dogs. We were sent the review feeder in a size large and it is perfect for our American Bulldog, Delilah, who is by far our messiest eater. Now the spills, slobbers and drips stay in the Neater Feeder, not all over the floor. A great solution to a messy problem. Thank you Neater Feeder for coming to this mom’s rescue.

Recently Tradewind Books sent me a book to review and one to use for a give-away. They sent me the children’s book, “On My Way” by Kari-Lynn Winters and illustrated by Christina Leist. I shared it with my 2 year old Luke tonight, and he just loved it. It was such a fitting and relative book for us because we take a lot of walks, and live in the country. This book follows a small child as he walks with his mother and his dog in the country. Luke loved that the dog looked like one of our dogs, Delilah. It was a great book because even though the words on each page were few, the content allowed us to talk about our own experiences. For instance the child sees a frog and we talked about how we see frogs on our walks. He was delighted seeing a little boy like him, seeing the same things he does, on his walk. It was a short, pleasant read and was just perfect for spurring conversation in a toddler or pre-schooler. The illustrations are charming and amusing, like when the dog is licking the boy’s ice cream cone. We give this book 2 thumbs up, oh wait, 4 thumbs up!!!
excerpt:
On my walk,
my summer walk,
I hear a horse, clippity-clop, clippity-clop,
and a frog, frippity-frop, frippity-frop
Tradewind Books so generously supplied me with an additional book to give-away to a lucky blog reader.

January 2nd and a beautiful mild day. I set out on my walk with my little man Ethan and Sassy Sassafras. Ethan was so happy to go along and skipped almost the whole way. He did stop to throw snow rocks into the lake but they did not make a big splash like in the warmer weather but skipped across the icy lake top. It was Sassy’s first time around the lake and she was just as good as Zazzy (Zoey). At one point Ethan picked her up and wanted to hold her but I appealed to him to let her walk and get good exercise too. I love how taking a nice walk outside just energizes the body and minds of adults, children and dogs alike. We all returned home, happy, refreshed and grateful. Hope everyone is getting out and enjoying the mild temps we are having.
