May 032012

A purrson from da Federal Trade Commission had talked to us at BlogPaws last year. And it still made us all scratch our heds.

H2 left there finking we used clear disclosure but affer reading dis article we r not so sure any more.

New FTC Rules on Writing Reviews, Affiliations, and Sponsored Posts

The article clearly spells out wot u need to disclose (I finks it makes it painfully clear that it is now painfully painful to be a blogger).

Iffen I haz sumfin I like I wanna tell da werld about it. Iffen I haz sumfin I hate I wanna tell da werld about it! I dun’t finks I shuld hab to explain to everyone how an affiliate link werks n wot it iz, but apparently da FTC thinks dat I doz.

So going forward u will see da big old stoopid idiot block at da bottom of ma posts dat disclose dat I am a cat and I like to play wif cat toys…not just on da posts dat I knows needs dem but even on da stoopid lil posts cause u knows I mite slip an affiliate link or peanuts into it n I dunt wants no one habbin an allergic reakshun to any of ma posts!

So guess ma question iz will der be sum1 at BlogPaws from da FTC agin and mehbe BlogPaws could film dat and gib it streaming fur free to all anipals dat blog so we knows we doin da right fings?

It iz all so beary beary confusin.

FURminates Ur Hairballs Away

Da best way to treat hairballs is prevention. Groomin ur cat regularly iz by far da best way to control dem furs afore dey get into ur kitty’s belly!

A qwik googley search tells us dat we kittehs spend most of our waking time (and since we sleep 16-20 hours a day) we are groomin ourselfs qwite a bit!

According to research up to 2/3 of a cat’s shed hair can be ingested az dey groom. (groomin equals lickin and lickin equals swallowed hairs).

When u halp out by groomin ur kitteh u halp reduce the amount of hair going into der gut to form hairballs. Az i said afore prevention iz da key!

We use da [amazon_link id=”B0040QS3PO” target=”_blank” ]FURminator tool[/amazon_link] cause it removes up to 90% off da loose furs and undercoat wif out hurtin ma loverly top coat.

Now I dunt likes to be brushed. I put da bitey on da FURminator n da human dat iz brushin me affer about four strokes. So ma humanz gotta keep up wif me on a daily basis. Cause I am alreddy on meds to regulates ma poops (I haz contipashuns) and a hairball could cause dat to become worse or even a blockage! So when FURminator came out wif da [amazon_link id=”B0040QS3PO” target=”_blank” ]large cat deshedding tool[/amazon_link] we were very happy. Cause now we gets more of ma furs brushed afore I put da bitey on it! Da tool iz too wide for da little monsters so dey gets to use [amazon_link id=”B000PU31MY” target=”_blank” ]da regular kitteh one[/amazon_link]. We all sez iffen u wanna halp keep ur kitteh healthy and happy FURminate dem regularly!

Since today iz hairball awareness day why not celebrate by going home n groomin ur kitteh? U could make sumfin cool wif da cat hairs when ur dun, MOL.

Disclosure: While I did receive a FURminator product to collect ma furs and to write up a National Hairball Awareness Day post, I still finks grooming ur cat iz da bestest way to avoid hairballs and usin a FURminator to do dat iz a purrty good way of removing undercoat and shed furs. Habbing da product given to me did not color ma opinion in da least it only reinforced wot i alreddy knew.

[amazon_link id=”1594745250″ target=”_blank” ]Crafting with Cat Hair[/amazon_link] iz a book about doing just wot it title sez, making craft using kitteh furs!

It gibs handy little tips about safely collecting the cat hair by brushing your cat and safety tips too about not over brushing just to get furs for ur projects.

They recommend using the [amazon_link id=”B002RS4WK2″ target=”_blank” ]FURminator[/amazon_link] to collect ur cats hair and not to do it more than 3 or 3 times in a week (just like FURminator recommends).

The book teaches u about felting and the differences between wool felt n cat felt…besides the obvious of course. MOL.

It gives u great crafting tips and ideas for making interestin n unique items. If u r lookin fur a hobby, why not try [amazon_link id=”1594745250″ target=”_blank” ]Crafting wif Cat Hair[/amazon_link]?

Yummers. Cookies!!! O wait der not fur me!

Freshpet, da folks wot makes dem nommy cat and dog foods dat are so fresh n good fur u dat dey haz to stay in da fridge, are at it agin.

Dis time dey haz bake at home COOKIES! No mixin no messin just cookie makin fun and boy do dey smelll nommy good when dey is bakin.

Since we not hab doggies here at dis house I sent dem along wif H2 to gib to a co-werker and her also gibbed sum to a neighbor Yorkie. Da cookies needed to be broken in pieces fur herz but herz nommed dem and gibbed dem two paws up!

As you can see I enjoyed da apron very much and would not let H2 use it to bakin da cookies, MOL. I wuz just tryin to make dat saying tru.

U know da one about everyfing tastes betterer wif a little cat hair.

Moose Luther Bigglesworth and Dutchess Marie Renee Rennard were ma utter two taste testers.

Moose did not like da Peanut Butter ones so much but Dutchess did enjoys both flavors. Seems like everybuddy lubbed da Oatmeal Cranberry cookies da bestest. Funny cause H2 really, really wanted to nom on da peanut butter ones.

We had cooked both batches at once and fink dat mehbe da peanut butter ones needed to be cooked a little bit longer den da cranberry ones.

I finks we will be telling our utter doggy furrends about the tastin and good for u bake at home cookies fro Freshpet.

Ma humanz finded der yearbooks da utter day and spent hours sitting there going thru them and havin good memories of friends and fun times.

Shutterfly just came out with a really cool photo yearbook dat you can make yourself (but schools can use their services too). Since Human2 wuz on the year book in high school this really appeals to herz.

We were finkin it would be a PAWSUM fing to make a year book of all our online anipals and all da cool fings we do (like SCIFIpawty etc).

Other yearbook ideas we had include:

family reunions (fun thing to do at reunion take yearbook photos)
home school or cyber school (to chronicle the events of the year)
Companies (would work better for small companies i finks)

The online yearbook is just one more cool memory keeping project you can do over at Shutterfly.com.
