There are many ways to pamper your furry feline friend. Love them, feed them well, play with them and spoil them with an
assortment of exciting gifts! Cats are great observers: Oh boy, don't they just love to sit and
watch the world around them. Always make room for them by a window seal or on a couch with a window view, they will be sure to own that spot. Watch them as they gleefully observe the butterfly’s zip around the garden and the birds tweet away! Give them a couch and put a blanket that’s easy to clean or buy them a fancy window perch. Time to get active: Sounds a little unreal but apparently, a lot of cats are overweight and deal with obesity. I know, a little unreal right? So it’s important you engage your cat in a number of enjoyable activities daily. Quite frankly, I think the cat will be helping you to get in shape as well. Get your kitty cat to chase a toy, or to play fetch, to run with you and let’s not forget how a piece of yarn adds to their endless fun.
There are a plethora of cat toys to pick from that will keep your feline, stealthy friend delighted! Spoil them with catnip caves that have catnip scented bubbles bursting out of them. That kitty cat will roll, meow, dribble and purr out of pure bliss! The caves are also ideal for hiding and pouncing. Why not try a tunnel pop up cat toy for them to whizz in and out of. Just because you can, throw in a mouse cat toy. Take it to the next level and buy a playhouse cat condo and do
ensure there is a scratch post nearby, they will forever be indebted to you.
So you see, pampering and looking after your furry friend is easy, achievable and fun. Who knows, maybe the next time you both decide to go for a dress up party, you might even buy your cat a costume! I’m thinking the one that the adorable Master Cat, aka "Puss in Boots” from Shrek parades in, like the one posted on YouTube!
I pre-ordered my Samsung Galaxy Note 7 on August 8, 2016. I was excited like a little kid on a Christmas morning -- couldn't wait to be the first one among my peers to get my beautiful and better-than-iPhone-7-plus mobile phone.
August 16, I got a notification from T-Mobile that my Note 7 was delivered on my doorstep! Funny, because I was very excited to have it but I was too lazy to set it up. I opened the package and took out the Note 7 that was still in the box and slept with it for 7 days! Yep, that's how lazy I was! My laziness overshadowed my excitement. Ha ha! So on August 24, I finally decided to set it up and transfer everything from my Note 4 to my Note 7. One great thing about Samsung phones and having a Samsung account, it backed up all my settings, my contacts list, my messages, my apps -- yep, that means my Pokemon Go, Ingress, and even the discontinued Flappy Bird! After couple of hours of setting up the new phone, restoring my apps, pairing my Samsung Gear S2 Classic and my Jabra Storm headset, I was ready to show off my amazing Samsung Galaxy Note 7 to my family and friends. I love how it's slimmer with sexy curvature than my Note 4 for easier grip, yet it still has a wide screen at 5.7 inch, like my previous phablet, but with stunning 2560 x 1440-pixel resolution, AMOLED screen that is said to be the best smartphone screen ever!
The stylus, S-Pen, is the next thing I love about it. My handwriting is now very precise, appearing like my real handwriting and not of a 3 year old doodling on the phone screen. This is ideal for people who love to draw or write without having to lug around a notebook and/or a notepad with them. Iris Scanner is a fun addition to my Note. To learn about how an iris scanner works, this is a good article to read. So I set my phone's security to unlock using the iris scanner feature. I noticed that even if my irises aren't perfectly inside the two circles it would still unlock my phone. It made me think that this feature is probably flawed, that it would scan any eyes and unlock for anybody. So I had my daughter scanned her eyes, but my Note gave her "Failed to recognize irises" message. Then, I tried my mom, and she too got the same message. Now, I'm convince that my phone's security system is strong but convenient because I don't have to enter in a code or a password. I just look into the screen and voila! Those were the three that really stood out to me when I was just setting things up. Because I was lazy, I knew it would take me another 7 days to really sit on my bed and figure out what my new Note can do and what other cool things and apps it has in store for me. The 7th day came--it was a Wednesday, so I put it off saying I'd wait till the weekend. Ha! September 2nd--a Friday, my friend called to tell me that Samsung was doing a massive recall on Note 7 because they've been exploding, "isn't that your phone?" he asked. And so, of course, I went online and checked the news and it was the top story of the day on CNNMoney. And I think based on the title of this blog, you already figured out that I took the risk and kept the phone until the day the replacements arrived in our local T-Mobile store. I didn't power it down. I continued to use it and just made sure that it didn't get so hot, which is actually normal for every phone I've had. I placed it in an empty OxiClean bucket that was in our laundry room sink whenever I had to recharge it. Ha ha! I constantly watched the news online regarding the replacements. September 21 -- as soon as the news announced that replacements are now available in the US, I took my explode-prone phone to the nearest T-Mobile store and exchanged. It was like Christmas morning all over again! It's now September 25, I notice that Samsung Galaxy Note 7 is still the topic in several media outlets, i.e. overheating issue in South Korea and fire issue in China. Now, this is just my opinion -- I feel like some people are just out to get Samsung. Any type of electronics would overheat if overused. My Dell Inspiron 15 red laptop overheats and significantly slows down when I'm running tons of programs at the same time. And I'm sure if I put it out there under an extreme heat, it will caught on fire too. My iPad 3 overheats when I overused it. iPhone explodes too ... even iPad Air. Anything and anyone can overheat, explode, or caught on fire, and even collapse or die (if human) when they are over-exerted beyond their capacity! And just like anything and anyone, when an electronic or a person overheats, stop and rest!
I am pretty sure 99.99% of the people in the world have already seen this commercial on TV -- because it seems that I am always the last person to know what is going on around me. Yep, I do live under a rock! Ha ha!
So what is this blog about? Well, it is really about what I've noticed when I checked my Google and Bing Webmasters report regarding my "cat" business. Yep, cat ... not dog. Anyways, one of the products on my website is a lion mane for cat. Somehow, the reports are showing that this particular item page of my online store keeps popping up on the first page of the search engines whenever people are searching for amazon dog commercial lion costume. Hmmmm ... That in fact this is the #1 best seller costume on Amazon (as of this posting) for both the dogs and the cats!
So I am wondering -- did the commercial cause it to be the best seller costume? Maybe. Or, maybe it's not because of the commercial at all. Maybe it's because Halloween is around the corner and we just want to see our pets wear the cutest costumes there is. Whatever the reason is, it doesn't even matter to many of us. We buy, because we like. Right? *wink* I bought mine for my cat waaaay before the Amazon commercial. But because of the commercial, it made me look for it (because I'd misplaced it already) and have my cat wear it again. Gotta love commercials that touch your soul. :)
