The Sky is Falling
Do you suppose the expression 'it's raining cats and dogs' originated with the flood? For 120 years, Noah preached, "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!" They laughed at Noah. Who had ever heard of rain? It is not all that different, today. "The end is coming! The end is coming!" But who, in this generation, has ever seen God's wrath? Besides, that is for the lost ... right? That is not what God said (Ep. 5:6). The Bible was not written for the lost (1 Co. 2:14). God told us whom He meant (II Ch. 7:14). In Co. 3:6, God makes another reference to the children of disobedience. Perhaps, He knew we would not get it the first time? Not very many people survived the flood. They did not get it either...

Hello From Ottawa: A First Walk Down-Town And Exploring "The Street" At The Canadian Museum Of Contemporary Photography
When I left Toronto this morning at 10 am it was raining cats and dogs. But fortunately rush hour was finished and traffic was flowing easily. About an hour east of Toronto the rain stopped and the sun started peeking through and the drive through the hilly areas around Kingston turned into a rather enjoyable experience. Spring was in full force - lilacs were blooming by the side of the highway. Quite relaxed I rolled into Ottawa at 2:30 pm and navigated my way into Ottawa's east side, the Sandy Hill neighbourhood, an upscale area of stately Victorian mansions and well-maintained gardens. I easily found my accommodation: the McGee's Inn, a 14-room historic bed and breakfast at 185 Daly Street, just...
Can Cats Be Trained?
Many people think that a trained cat is an oxymoron. Cats are known for their independence, which endears them to some people and makes others prefer dogs. While cats are, in many ways, more independent and self-sufficient than dogs, this does not mean that they cannot be trained. This is especially important in regard to areas of problem behavior. People sometimes think that where cats are concerned they either have to simply put up with a problem --whether it be aggression, destructive behavior or not using the litter box-- or get rid of the cat. This is, in most cases, simply not true. The vast majority of cats can be trained out of troublesome behavior. Litter box problems are a common complaint...

9 Reasons for Adopting a Senior Cat and 6 Reasons for Not Adopting a Kitten
He leaped out of the cage and grabbed me around the shoulders. My shock quickly turned into amazement. He hadn't sunk his claws into me! My thought was, "This cat definitely knows good manners. Somebody has worked with him." I looked at the ticket on the cage door. It read, "Morgan, male, age 14." Age 14? I hesitated. That was pretty old. I put him back in the cage and walked around the shelter, looking the other cats over. There were many nice ones, as well as a few kittens.

The Albino Ferret Can Be A Fun And Entertaining Pet
It was the middle of the night when I heard noises in the kitchen, something or someone was moving around and my wife's worried expression said... it was my duty to check it out. I crept in quietly, not knowing whether I'd find a burglar or a large rat, neither a comforting thought at 2am. Flicking on the light I jumped into the room shouting... "Arghhh"! The noise stopped, but the room was empty. I stood in my PJs wondering if we'd imagined the noise. It was only a moment before the noise began again; it seemed to be coming from a drawer near the kitchen counter. Having no idea what I'd find I eased open the drawer, prepared to give whatever was inside a good whack. A furry twitching nose and...

Cats & Dogs - Soul Mates?
Soul Mates? I had heard more than once how Chows are very cat like in their demeanor and attitudes and since I have had two of them in my life I can confirm this!

Pongo would have nothing to do with her! They tip toed around each other for three days even...

What Is The Persian Cat?
A show-quality Persian has an extremely long thick coat, short legs, a wide head with the ears set far apart, large eyes, and an extremely foreshortened muzzle. The breed was originally established with a short (but not non-existent) muzzle, but over time this feature has become extremely exaggerated, particularly in North America, and Persians with the more extreme brachycephalic head type are prone to a number of health problems (specifically affecting their sinuses and breathing) caused by it. However, conscientious breeders eliminate this by careful choice of breeding stock with more moderate head type, as the stated goal of most breeders is first and always healthy cats. Keeping them indoors is...

I Should Have Just Given My Roommate Some Cat Jewelry!
One day I came home from school and found my roommate relaxed on the couch with a tiny little creature bundled in her arms. Hoping it was just a stuffed animal, I soon realized it was a live kitten. Not an avid fan of cats, I reminded her of our landlord's policy of no pets in the condo. She insisted that she would keep her kitten in her room, or out on the patio while she was out. I reluctantly gave in and tolerated the kitten's presence, but made it known that I couldn't stand to have a cat living in the condo. Looking back on this unfavorable living situation, I laugh now to realize that years have passed, and only was I reminded of that cat when I came across some cat jewelry at a store...

People kept them for one purpose - hunting rodent - and they are already perfectly designed for that.
