With the two articles written this week about the abused and neglected cats and dogs I wanted to round out the week with a great video I found of an awesome dog, named Casper, getting a bath. I've been splashed -- heck even drenched when I give my dogs their baths.

This stray kitten was left for dead in a garage.  In addition to being covered with fleas and extremely malnourished, the cat's face had been deeply cut by a car fan blade.

I've had a number of cats as pets through the years, so nothing on this video surprises me...until the end.

I've never seen a cat react this way when his prey decides to fly away.  The video is kind of grainy, but it's still pretty dang funny.

Ever wonder what to do about your overweight cat? I have a cat that is overweight and I thought it was time to put my sweet 'Meadow' on a diet. I had always heard that when putting a pet on a diet you should be very cautious.  So I researched many sites to see the best way to help my cat lose weight. During my research I learned that overweight and actually obese cats outnumber cats of normal weight and are being seen more and more commonly by veterinarians for various disorders.
