Hi! I’m Pixie the luckiest black
cat you know! Nice to meet you! I am an adorable, all-American shorthair domestic black cat
that is loved by her humans, cat sisters, and extended animal family very much.
I believe in kindness, love, and great kitten treats! Sometimes I don’t know which I love more: my
cat food or the joy of being around the ones that I love. For now, it is a tie,
and I certainly don’t have to choose. I feel fortunate and I think that that is
why I am the luckiest black cat because I have all the true joys that life has
to offer. I get to be loved and taken care of and I get to return that love and
kindness back to others in my life. Isn’t it funny? A fortunate black cat! Who
would have thought of it?
My Cat-urdays
(outside of napping and sleeping) are spent making sure that my human family
and cat sisters are happy and well taken care of. I do daily check-ins with my
humans who tend to stare at bright rectangle boxes of various sizes way too
much for my liking. If you ask me, I find the habit odd and the rectangle
thingies rather weird. The biggest rectangle is in the center of the living room.
It makes sounds and sometimes has images that move. There are times where I’ll
look at it with my head titled trying to understand what the fascination is all
about. It is certainly purr-plexing for sure! But I do see how much watching
that thing makes them happy and keeps them calm like a good dose of catnip or a
nibble of fancy feast, so I figure why not let them have it? I am a generous cat after all. So, I tend to allow
for it when I am taking naps and busy tending my cat business and blogging
endeavors. However, when I am not napping or blogging, I certainly remind them
to have more fun with me! Petting me and giving me attention should be the best
part of their Cat-urday! As for me, when I am relaxing for my viewing pleasure,
I prefer to watch life roll by outside seeing nature and chatting with other
neighborhood cats that stop by. We have a few in the neighborhood but there is
one special one we call Jilli-Bee. She is a domestic short hair tabby like my
sister Leah that stops by for treats every day. We talk to her, and she gives
us the gossip and run down about what is happening in the neighborhood all the
time. Her furry journeys are always awesome to hear about.
My cat sisters that
live with me (we are indoor cats) are very active and most recently we have
been acting more and more like a unit. In the past, we all had our issues. Leah,
my litter sister, came with me to our fur-ever home and she never liked humans.
We, my human family plus me, had to work hard together to get Leah to feel
comfortable. After a few years it has gotten a lot better, but we are still
working on it every day. She is beginning to swish and rub her tail on our human mom when fed her daily meals. It is certainly an improvement from when
she used to hide under the couch all the time or run away as soon as a human
walked into the room.
Then Star, our
other cat sister who is a white cat of mysterious origins, had issues of a
different kind that we had to help her with. Wait for it… wait for it… She
didn’t like other cats! (GASP!) The level of kindness that we all had to give
to Star to help her overcome that obstacle was at one point at an all-time high.
I had to be ultra-patient with her which was not always easy. Star had bad
reactions to seeing me or Leah. The level of hissing was just off the charts! Sure,
she hurt my feelings a lot, but I never gave up on her. However, since Leah was
initially excited for another cat to be inside the house to play with us, her
feelings were just badly in a way that I just can’t describe. It took a lot for
us to reasonably get along and we still work on it getting better every single
day. Now a days instead of being trapped all day long inside of a bedroom, she
is very active and roams freely with us around the house. She still prefers her
space and doesn’t always want to play or groom with us, but I am just happy
that she is more a part of the family than she has been before.
By blogging (with
my human’s purr-mission of course!), I hope to one day end the misconceptions
regarding proper pet and animal care and to also address the unkind mistaken
beliefs about us black cats being bad luck. These terrible myths are not right
and are simply not true. We are just like any other cats that you meet. Nothing
to fear or avoid here! If you are curious, follow me for regular updates about
my home life with my family and furry friends, awesome wellness and helpful
hints, tips, and facts about pet care for your fur-babies.
You can send me a
purr-sonal email message at pixiespetcorner@gmail.com. In the meantime, happy Cat-urday and promise
me you’ll give a big hug to your furry best friend! Love, Pixie.
Until next time… Make everyday a Cat-tastic Cat-urday!
