We’ve got the Top 20 Most Peeworthy Hotspots ranked by pros, cons, and scolding probability. Noob sends greetings and indifference to his loyal readers then issues a public service warning about the Spritz of Death bottle. Don’t let it happen to you, kittens.
Be sure to look for the feline empowerment tips scattered like litter through the pages. And speaking of litter, what does your box say about you? Take the quiz and find out.Then read about Winkles Fishstix’s 24 hours undercover as a dog. Are you bored with your regular scratching post?

Let’s discuss catnip addiction: is your human an enabler and how much is too much?
Is your human a creepy stalker? Do they tell you their problems – and expect you to care? Do they have hundreds of photos of you on their phone? Worst still, do they (hiss!) touch your tummy? We can tell you what your options are. In or outside of doors? It’s your right not to choose. What’s the best size cardboard box for you and what to do with the annoying things that come in them? Why is water death venom when you’re immersed in it but wonderful to drink from the faucet? We don’t know either, but it just is. And just for fun – read your pawroscope.
