A Hollywood Home Tour

Jennifer Garner is having a blast playing tour guide to her cat, Moose, in a hilariously heartwarming Instagram video. The actress, known for her roles in 13 Going on 30 and Alias, decided to show Moose the ins and outs of her house in what can only be described as a feline-themed house tour.

The famous duo kicked things off in the kitchen with a peek inside the fridge, where Moose clearly pondered the mysteries of human snacks. Next, Moose got a VIP view of the microwave—unfortunately, no snacks popped out—before heading to the fish tank for a bit of aquatic people-watching. The grand finale was a charmingly awkward moment where Moose’s paw got hilariously stuck on the bedspread.

Garner, clearly the queen of cute pet antics, was inspired by a popular social media trend that involved giving pets a grand tour of their home. While Moose seemed about as impressed as a cat can be (which is to say, not very), Garner’s playful spirit and genuine affection for her furry friend shone through. In the grand tradition of celebrity pet antics, Moose’s house tour might not win any awards for enthusiasm, but it definitely won hearts across Instagram.

Cats of the Day: Brushie and Oreie

Meet Brushie and Oreie, the dynamic duo from a Minecraft-themed litter who leveled up from foster kittens to mischief makers with forever homes. With their expert play-wrestling moves and acrobatic leaps that would put Olympic gymnasts to shame, these two are on a quest to capture every toy in sight—and maybe our hearts while they’re at it.

The Importance of Toys in a Cat's Life

Toys aren’t just for fun when it comes to indoor cats—they’re essential for their health and happiness. When your cat chases a feather on a string or pounces on a laser dot, they’re not just having a blast; they’re burning calories and keeping those love handles in check. Plus, a good play session keeps their minds sharp and ensures they don’t spend all day plotting world domination from the top of the fridge.

Since the great outdoors is more of a cat-astrophe waiting to happen, keeping your cat inside is the smart move. But that doesn’t mean they have to live a life of boredom. With the right toys, you can bring the excitement of the wild right into your living room. Feather wands, catnip toys, laser pointers, puzzle feeders, and cat subscription boxes can turn your home into an indoor safari, satisfying your cat’s inner predator without the need for outdoor exploration. Keep things fresh by rotating toys and surprising your kitty with new ones, and you’ll have a happy, healthy cat who thinks they’ve got the best of both worlds—minus the actual prey, of course.

How Much Water Should Cats Drink?

Keeping your cat hydrated can be as challenging as getting them to play fetch. Unlike dogs, who drink water like they’re preparing for a marathon, cats tend to be a bit more reserved with their water consumption. A six-pound cat might only sip about 10 tablespoons a day, and if they’re on a wet food diet, they might barely touch their water bowl because their food’s already 80% water. If your kitty seems to be turning up its nose at the water bowl, remember: she’s not being picky; she’s just got a sophisticated hydration strategy.

During warmer weather, even cats need to up their water game to avoid becoming little feline raisins. Healthy cats usually manage to drink enough on their own, but it’s still a good idea to keep multiple water bowls around the house. And for the ultimate cat hydration hack, try sneaking some extra water into their food if they’re not too fussy. And remember, cats prefer their dining areas to be as far away from their litter box as possible, so set up those water bowls in a cozy corner.
