Cat owners will probably agree that when their furry friends want attention, they get attention. Sure, those rare times might not always (or, well…ever) line up with the times you need some snuggling, but on the rare occasion when you’re trying to give attention to another being, well that’s just not acceptable.

Captain is a pit bull that was abandoned by his family because he wasn’t “perfect.” He was born with a blind left eye and a deformed right ear, and for that reason, his owners abandoned him on the steps of a kill shelter in North Carolina. This typically would’ve been a death sentence for such […]

googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘VN_PG_DTBT_ATF’); }); I will forever be a dog person because cats are just too smart and devious for my liking.

Unless you’re Doctor Dolittle, it’s almost impossible to know what your dog is thinking. It’s 2016 and we still haven’t created a device to translate what our favorite pooches have to say.
