| Ah yes, that's where the lampshade sat that I knocked off earlier... |

| Oh why not. you only live -- well, nine times... |
And if you're not familiar with Jackson Galaxy, please let us introduce you!

Did someone say "chocolate"? We are soooo there!

They say chocolate isn't good for dogs and cats. And while that might be true ... in a way it isn't.
True, your pet should never eat chocolate. But you can. And when you eat this chocolate? You're actually helping rescue organizations like PAWS of Norwalk, CT save lives.
Rescue Chocolate is a chocolatier that handcrafts each of its products in the finest Belgian tradition.
Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Brooklyn, NY, Rescue Chocolates uses their packaging to shed light on different aspects of the current pet “overpopulation” epidemic.
Each chocolate bar is 100% vegan and also 100% kosher parve (which our mom loves). Best of all, 100% of the net profits are donated to animal rescue organizations around the country.
To see current and past beneficiaries just click here. Big shout out of thanks to Cathy Keisha of Stunning Keisha for telling us about this!

Thursday Trivia: What the cat dragged in!
It's certainly not the most flattering of sayings. As we cat people know, cats can drag in some pretty, well...gross and disgusting things! And indeed, today the phrase is used to describe someone a bit bedraggled in appearance.
With its casual phrasing, we would have guessed that it had its roots in the Deep South (U.S., that is). But we found two different web sites that claimed the saying originated in Dublin, Ireland in 1984.
They say a 6 year old boy made the comment after a fellow classmate walked in late to school. His teacher and fellow students thought it was so funny that the saying caught on. Or so they claim.
But 1984 seems awfully recent for a saying that feels like it's been around forever.
We have our suspicions. What do you think?

Allie got a kitty-cam that clips on her collar for Chanukah. And we're finding some pretty incriminating interesting things on it....
