Premise So, this is going to be kind of controversial. My name is Peter Roe. I am co-owner of this store. I am the loving parent of a German Sheppard named Poppy. She is my best friend in a lot of ways. As I type this alone in my room she is laying behind me […]
Life is just to much sometimes, Yesterday May 18, 2020 our beloved "Fluffy" (real name Edward) the Himalayan cat died at the young age of only four. He had a urethra blockage that trashed his kidneys and we had to put him to rest. That is an awful way to loose an animal, having to […]
Someone recently asked me how to pick out a cat. I immediately thought of all of the cats that we had chosen who didn’t like us/me. AND, the cats who chose me whom I loved and who loved me back. And that is the key. When you are looking at kittens or cats, look for […]
It is Christmas time and with it comes the precautions that we must observe to protect our pets. One sometimes overlooked precaution is to pick up after your party, before you go to bed. I don’t mean do all the dishes but pick up the food and drinks and put them in the trash or […]
It's nearly Thanksgiving and I've been thinking of my family a lot lately. Of my Mom, who didn’t get to see my children become adults and my grandparents who never met them or held them, but whose wisdom, humor and love touch their lives every day through me. When my mom divorced in her 50s, […]
Pete is mad at me because this blog is VERY late. But I couldn’t help myself. The deeper that I dug for stories and details about animals who served in the military, the more fascinated I became. Every time that I thought that I had finally found The Best story about an animal, there was […]

Pole beans are the purr-fect place for cats to hide. And for cats and dogs to eat. They are healthy and delicious and BEST! They are easy to grow. In fact, they are more likely to be too bountiful than unsuccessful when you grow them. My favorite type of pole bean is the Kentucky Wonder […]
When we moved to New Jersey, our cat, Cuddles went outside just as he did in Michigan. We lived in a safe, suburban lake community and I thought that he would be safe from cars or predators. He was a rescued feral kitten and I could not keep him inside, so we tried to […]
Why does my cat pee in the wrong place? We have a cat that would insist on peeing in my husband’s office. Worse, after we put a litter box in his favorite pee corner, he refused to use the litter box about half the time. He is, or was, a Rude Kitty Litter Box […]
Oh i have been waiting to do something like this for over a year. Finally my mothers and my website has been filled with products and pictures all carefully looked over and double checked. It took a year to flesh out an idea that you can explain in 60 seconds, as my mom had to […]
An Ode to Grumpy Cat I just read that Grumpy Cat passed away. I was saddened along with many others that this hopefully happy underneath Grumpy Cat face is no longer here, except in spirit and many, many photos. Besides being sad about her passing, I was also reminded of my own problems with our […]
Mom is important so treat her well. That goes for all you Rude Kitty's too!
We're all aware of sibling rivalry with our children, but how about our pets? We've all seen the cuddly YouTube videos of cats and dogs together in a cozy pile of sleeping pets. But I've found that our pets have had some insurmountable differences no matter how much effort we have put into diplomacy. One […]
