Lauren had been counting down to the day she could bring home Callie Ren, a mini long-haired dachshund puppy ready to leave her mom at the end of September. But just a week before, she met a kitten named Cassie at a local adoption event. Unable to resist, she welcomed the little gray kitten home, too, just days before Callie’s arrival.

At first, she worried about adopting two little ones so close together. But from day one, the pair were inseparable. Cassie and Callie wrestle and play until they tire each other out, then curl up side by side for naps.

Lauren says Cassie often tries to sneak bites of Callie’s food, and Callie happily shares, even though both know it’s against the rules. At night, they both snuggle in bed with her, usually wrapped up in each other’s paws.

“They’re the perfect mix of cuteness and chaos,” Lauren said, and it’s clear they’ve found their forever best friend in each other.

Cats aren’t known for loving change, especially when it comes to their bathroom habits. If you’re introducing a new litter box, patience and preparation make the transition smoother.

Start by keeping the new box in a calm, familiar spot. Use the litter your cat already prefers, and avoid scented options that can turn them away. Place the new box next to the old one for a few days before removing the old setup: this lets your cat choose when to make the switch.

Cleanliness makes all the difference. Scoop daily, refresh litter regularly, and keep boxes away from noisy appliances. In multi-cat homes, more boxes help prevent turf wars. Some cat parents also find automatic boxes helpful since they stay fresh and cut down on the cleaning workload.

Reward your cat when they use the new box and give them time to adjust. With a little patience, most cats accept the change quickly and happily.

Cats can live with a whole family, but chances are they’ll secretly pick a favorite human. And it’s not always the one who does the feeding or litter scooping.

Surprisingly, cats often bond most with the person who gives them space. Someone calm and respectful of their boundaries may win them over more easily than the person trying hardest for attention. Signs you’ve earned top spot include purring at your side, affectionate headbutts, or your cat snoozing completely relaxed in your lap (a true show of trust).

Cats usually choose their favorite based on safety, comfort, and fun. If they feel they can let their guard down with you, they’ll stick around for naps and play.

Want to improve your chances? Pay attention to their body language, let them come to you first, and share activities they enjoy. Respecting their safe spaces and moods goes a long way. Eventually, you might just become the chosen one.
