Most people think I’m kidding when I say that my favourite child is my dog, but my other three children will tell you, it’s no joke. For the last ten years, Honey has been the child that I dote on every single day, and why wouldn’t I? Honey snuggles on command, she’s never been sick, she’s always happy to see me, never cops a surly attitude, and loves me unconditionally. This dog has brought me nothing less than pure joy for the last ten years, and that’s why I take such good care of her …
Keeping Your #MostPlayfulCat Happy and More Importantly, BUSY!
Everyone knows that bored cats are naughty cats. via GIPHY Sofas become scratching posts (Milo, you were the master climber/scratcher), glasses get heaved off of horizontal surfaces (thanks for that middle-of-the-night lesson, Fuzzy) and lifelong kitty companions become the mortal enemy (looking at you, kitty sisters Boo and Binoo).

This is what she's doing in my office right now while I'm working. Don't let the cute exterior fool you, this dog has been getting a free ride for way too long.

Give the Dog a Beer Bone
Recently, my husband took up brewing. We are not here to talk about that today. That's an entirely different post. However, on the flip side there's been a whole lotta spent grain afterwards that we need to contend with.
