Katz Tales: Building paw-sitive friendships

Cats are curious creatures and kittens make it their daily mission to be into everything. With Tic Tac aged two and Inkie at eleven months, we have a constant flow of exciting adventures.

This week, Inkie began collecting beetles. His first specimen, a firefly, was a huge hit because I'd never seen one before. Inkie handed it over for release, so we watched it flutter away, flying like an overburdened helicopter, and then it sat in the tree outside, beaming its light at us.
