We have a new vet! I’m happy to have found a vet clinic that meets the needs of my family. They’re friendly, caring folks and knowledgeable. I am relieved. This past Saturday June Buggie gave them a try. He had an annual exam and vaccinations to include blood work to test his thyroid level. He […]
MEOW! I wrote a poem for all you lovers of me….. and of other cats too….. for the big VD. May you take it to heart. Seriously. I mean it. For Valentines Day, your kitty Wants nothing that’s mushy or pretty, just give him some fish on a well-worn dish. In return, he won’t act […]
Have you noticed anything different about me? Uh, no, I did NOT change my hairstyle. I’ve been writing every day! YAY! In honor of National Novel Writing Month, I decided I would, in true American style, steal the event and reshape it to meet my deepest desires. And that desire is to get my blog back […]
As if the internet wasn’t already saturated with feline cuteness, here comes National Cat Day! I think we’re supposed to promote cat adoptions? Or maybe we’re supposed to buy stuff. Yeah, I’m guessing it’s the second one. You see, the pet industry is booming, but most of that is thanks to dog owners. If only we […]

So the good folks at the ASPCA are asking […]

When commenters asked if she wasn’t worried about losing her job over her actions, Ms. Lindsey posted, “and no I did not lose my job. Lol. Psshh. […]
I don’t brag about being a pet blogger. I don’t hide the fact, either. Except when I’m test-driving a new service provider for my pets. I want to see how they’d treat me if they didn’t expect me to go public with the experience. Today, Bubba and I returned to the new vet’s office for another […]
MEOW! My name is June Buggie, and I have something to say! Two years ago I posted a rant entitled, Does Santa Bring Puppies and Kittens? The post is getting a good bit of traffic this year, despite Rumpy adding a disclaimer at the top of the page that we no longer believe what I wrote. […]
Let’s face it, advertisers have us all convinced that we show how much we love our family and friends by how much we spend on them.
