The Cat And The Toad

Summer is full of life. It is full of smells and sounds and everything is buzzing, peeping, jumping, running or crawling around.

Ronja made a discovery the other day, or perhaps she was trying to make friends with one such summer critter and it was hilarious to watch the two unlikely friends to interfere.

Mio's Movie Night

Not only people can have movie nights.

Our house dogs usually watch anything we do. Ok, they mostly sleep through it and the pleasure for them comes from the simple fact of sharing the company.
Well dogs will be dogs and cats will definitely always be cats.

Switching Our Kitties To Natural Diet (Natural Feeding Program For Cats)

I must admit that we never really planned or spent much thoughts on our cats´ nutrition. And honestly - shame on us! Or particularly shame on me, because I am a large promoter of natural nutrition, filled with key ingredients for strong health and longevity for all animals.

Our Kitties

Someone had been asking me recently what happened to our cats. That I don´t blog much about them anymore. While that may be true, rest assured that Jachym has his Facebook page full of them. And he made this picture too. It is supposed to get you introduced to all three monsters - Pippi, Ronja and Mio.

Love Blooms In All Shapes And Sizes

These two cuties are Carla (the husky) and Pippi (yes, the cat).

They say cats and dogs are not friends. They say that especially huskies are cat enemies. But they also say, that love is blind, that love knows no borders and blooms in all shapes and sizes.

I chose to believe that it all depends on the environment.

Do Cats And Dogs Get Along?

Our animals are totally crazy. I am not sure if that´s because we are, but I rather leave that thought... :)

My Little Helpers

Of course Granite and Pippi are very cute, as they watch me making Christmas cookies, their eyes glowing and hoping I´d give them a bit of the dough to try.

But what struck me was the many comments and shares I received on this photo on Facebook. So many people, who own huskies themselves were amazed at those two sitting so close to each other, close to food, in peace.

Cat´s Life

Many folks ask us how do our cats enjoy their life in a sled dog kennel. Here´s what they say:

Not so bad after all, I´d say :)

Sled Cat

I think the winter has been a little bit too long. Dog mushing has gotten too much on our minds. Highest time for spring to come and for us to make our annual trip south to Czech Republic!

Hard life of a cat owner..

Does this look like Pippi is giving you "the finger"?

Here you see what we have to deal with!

Our cats don´t treat us very well. Life is very very hard.

The Hard Life in Cernosice

If I am born again, I´d like to be a dog or cat in my parents´ house :)

Prcek in his most favourite place and hide-away

Pinny (Metalika´s Polar Princess) - 17,5 years old lady on her private arm chair

Joacquin (full name Joacquin Phoenix Kipp d´Amundsen) -
on his favourite spot - my mom´s bed :)

"Her majesty" Pinny - getting already quite fed up by the camera

As you can see, animals at my parents´ place have a very tough life :)

Kitty Tracks

For all the cat lovers, who wonder if our kitties are still alive and for those of you, who keep asking me who Ronja and Pippi are doing, here is a little proof of their existence :)

I´m sure I´ll be able to take some pictures of them soon, as they spend more and more time indoors lately. Most likely in their favourite positions on the tv armchair, sofa or - the place most favourite above all - our bed.

Crazy Cats

If you want to visit us, you have to count with getting a stamp of aproval for parking your car, by our crazy cats Pippi and Ronja.

Literaly everyone who stops by or comes for a visit by car, will end up having their vehicle inspected by the kitties.

This became their habbit since they could jump high enough and dare you keeping your windows open, you will have them crowl inside too! They conquer small vehicles, dog trailers, tall dog trucks, vans, buses and do not even worry about scratching the nice polish on new Audis.

Usually, when we come home from shopping, they crowl up our front window (it is VERY narrow!) and walk over the roof, hang on the whipers and back mirrors and if we open the windows, we have them right on our laps.

Crazy cats indeed.
