The night before Chloe’s wedding, her bridal party spotted a tiny kitten under a barn near the venue. Scared and alone, he peeked out just long enough for them to fall in love. The bride-to-be made it her mission to find him again—even if it meant ducking out of hair and makeup the next morning.

The ceremony came and went, but there was still no sign of the kitten. Then, just as they were about to leave, Hayden made one last stop at the barn. Four kittens were huddled around the tuna she’d left behind, eating like they hadn’t in days.

She and her husband gently scooped up the little group—no mom in sight—and brought them home. Two kittens stayed with them. The other two went to her parents. All four are thriving.

A year later, those kittens are no longer strays. They’re part of the family. And for Hayden, it was the perfect (if unexpected) way to start married life—with love, laughter, and tiny paws everywhere.

If your cat avoids the toothbrush like it’s the vacuum cleaner, you’re not alone. But dental care isn’t just about fresh breath—it plays a major role in your cat’s overall health. Gum disease in cats can lead to painful infections and even affect their kidneys and heart.

Vets recommend brushing your cat’s teeth regularly, even if it’s just a few times a week. Use a pet-safe enzymatic toothpaste and a super-soft toothbrush or finger brush. Starting early helps, but even older cats can adjust with patience. For those who won’t tolerate brushing, dental wipes, gels, and treats can still make a difference.

Dental chews and food additives help reduce plaque, but they don’t replace brushing. If it’s been a while, start with a professional cleaning at your vet. Then work slowly to build a routine that works for you and your cat.

The goal isn’t perfect teeth—it’s a healthier, more comfortable life. And maybe a slightly less fishy-smelling yawn.

A Walt Disney World vacation for a family of four could cost up to $5,000—but with this step-by-step blueprint, you could make it happen for less than $100.

When Angela Rafuse’s grandfather passed away, she didn’t just adopt his 14-year-old cat, Mackenzie—she unknowingly started something bigger. After sharing their story online, messages poured in from people with the same fear: what happens to my pet if I can’t care for them anymore?

That led Rafuse to create My Grandfather’s Cat, a charity that helps seniors and terminally ill people find new homes for their pets before they move into care or pass away. Instead of a shelter or foster system, the pet goes straight from one loving home to another, all at no cost to either side.

Volunteers carefully vet adopters, but the original owner makes the final choice. That way, both cat and human get peace of mind.

Since launching, they’ve placed over 130 pets. Each match is a small act of comfort—for the person letting go and the cat beginning again.

When you love what you do, it can be easy to take on more — more tasks, more deadlines, more hours – but before you know it, you don’t have time to do what you loved in the beginning. Don’t just do more – do more of what you do best.
