Animal Planet’s Puppy Bowl
This Sunday is the Superbowl and if you’re not a football person, it’s also the Puppy Bowl. We’ve probably all have seen clips of the Puppy Bowl and watched a few minutes here and there. It’s not as exciting or dramatic as other sports but it’s hysterical. For the past 8 years, Animal Planet has [...]
8 Signs You Might Be Hanging Out With Your Pet Too Much
You’re probably thinking, “What?! No such thing!” There are times when we may be spending a lot of time home, with our pets, and not socializing with our friends as much as we used to. Everything in moderation, right? Sometimes the scale may tip towards the pets. It’s easy to understand, pets are pretty awesome. [...]
Great Name Combos for Two Pets In One House
When I got my two cats 14 years ago I wanted to give them names that paired well. My first inclination was to name them Franny and Zooey. But after a few days of watching them and getting to know them, those names didn’t fit. However, having names that pair well together can be fun. [...]
Is Your Dog a Republican?
I think mine is. I’m a Democrat so it’s a little disheartening to suspect he’s playing for the other team. Of course, I could be imagining it. We all know Democrats are generally a pathetic lot—very insecure yet still acting superior and thumbing their noses at everybody. Even other Democrats. But it’s the way my [...]
On Wisconsin!
It all started at a terrific little restaurant on East 34th Street in New York City called The Barking Dog.

The walls are adorned [...]

Bathing A Cat Or What Not To Do On A Sunday Afternoon
Cats tend to take care of themselves when it comes to staying clean but sometimes they need a bath. They may have rolled in something gross or maybe you need to bathe them to help with your allergies. Sometimes your cat may smell like a port-a-potty on a hot day… don’t think about why… they [...]
What’s In A Name? Star Wars and Star Trek Pet Names
I know some dogs and cats have fun names, wacky names, and obscure names. Pets are named after characters from a fav show, story, or movie and it can reflect an interest that the owner has. Some pets have human names too. I’ve had cats named after baseball players, musicians, and scientists. My two cats [...]
Email From My Cats
Last night I came home to find an email had been sent to me from my cats. I’m not kidding. No, really, not kidding. They had taken over my laptop and I found out they have a twitter account, a blog, and share photos on PicPlz. I was shocked. From what I can tell they [...]
Same sex marriage for dogs and cats
Right off the bat (with apologies to bats), let me say that we don’t mean same sex dogs marrying cats. However, our petswelcome.com management team (Smudge & Lola) has expressed some reservations about these new laws. They have definite ideas about who they want to snuggle up to, and they’re very leery about this trend [...]
