Cats do lots of cool things. And when they do these cool things we often hope that they make a habit of them. Cats perching on your shoulders is definitely one of those cool things. But not all cats do this, obviously. I’ve had a lot of cats in my day, but none of them […] More
Cats are finicky little beings. They will only allow you to pet them when they want—and where they want. Should you want them to come over to you, they are going to come when they want at the pace that they want, too. Really, it’s a cat’s world and we’re just living in it. When […] More
It’s been said that cat’s spend 70% of their lives asleep. And because of this, it might actually mean that there’s more to it than just sleep. Cats sleep a lot for a few reasons, actually. One of which is because of their high protein diet, they need to sleep so that their bodies can […] More
Cats are interesting little beings. They will suddenly zoom across the room, they will appear to us as if they are watching things that aren’t really there, and they will lick us—or things—that make us wonder why the heck it is they are doing that. One of the things that cats often like to lick […] More
17th century English clergyman Thomas Fuller once said one of the most famous quotes that we know today. “Seeing is believing, but feeling is the truth.” Many of us only remember the first part of that quote, as the latter is typically not included. Obviously, a person who doesn’t believe in ghosts or spirits would […] More
I personally love shopping, but I know that’s not the same for everyone. Finding the perfect item and then seeing it on sale is quite the rush if I’m being honest.

No matter what holiday it is that you celebrate come the end of the year, if you love cats then surely you enjoy those “LOL” Christmas cat memes. You know, the ones with the cats set to destroy the tree, or cats poised and ready to destroy Santa’s Village or those perfect little decorations you’ve […] More
Why do cats love bathrooms so much? Everyday, millions of us likely use the facilities with a cat monitoring our every move. And in some cases, very judgingly I might add! Other times, our felines take this as an open opportunity to jump up on our exposed laps. But do we complain? Not likely. Even […] More
As we know, there are cat lovers all over the world far and wide. I’ve been lucky enough to visit some pretty cool cat lover destinations across the United States. But it seems that now there’s a cat temple I must go to should I ever find myself in Kyoto, Japan. Appropriately known as the […] More
Whether they’re short, striped, fluffy, rumpy, or long and slinky, I am always mesmerized by cat tails. But “reports” say cats only have the ability to speak to us in meow code. So we must turn to the tail to figure out what it is that they’re trying to tell us. Body language is very […] More
A recent video that was posted on YouTube by PBS Eons, may just be the answer many of us have always wondered about. It’s the question that has been asked each and every time someone cleans a litter box. As we scoop the poop, we often wonder just how have we domesticated cats? I mean […] More
We at Cole & Marmalade are always advocates of spaying and neutering our feline friends. There are simply too many homeless cats and kittens in the world to risk having an unplanned litter.
