Hey Pet Parents & Pet Lovers, This post is a bit off-brand for Pets Overload, but I think it's a very important conversation to have, especially with the legalization of marijuana/cannabis in Canada (which happens on October 17, 2018). Marijuana has multiple purposes and while I'm not here to give you a lesson on whether or not it should be legalized, I do want to … [Read more...] about Is Marijuana / Cannabis Toxic Towards Cats?

Kalista is always Hiding in Weird Places (Cute Cat Story)
Hey Pet Parents & Pet Lovers, Kalista has always been a hider, ever since we got her. The first day we met her, she spent most of her time trying to scurry up my chest so she could hide behind me. The first we fostered her, she spent the majority of her time hiding under the bed or under any blankets she could find in our bedroom. It was much different than the other … [Read more...] about Kalista is always Hiding in Weird Places (Cute Cat Story)

We've been debating buying a cat tree for the past 2 years, and finally, we found a reasonably priced one on Amazon. As the product name suggests, this cat tree is fairly basic and … [Read more...] about We Got a Cat Tree!!
Beau is a Creature of Habit (Cute Cat Story)
Hey Pet Parents & Pet Lovers, I thought I would do something different this weekend. Instead of doing a regular photo dump, I want to take more time to let you know about my pets. These past few weeks have been a bit hard for our family because I've been away from home a lot more than usual. The cats had a rough first week, but they seem to be adapting to my new … [Read more...] about Beau is a Creature of Habit (Cute Cat Story)

When Can Cats Have Kittens? How Old does the cat have to be?
Hey Pet Parents & Pet Lovers, As much as I love kittens, I do believe that we should be spaying and neutering our house pets. The Toronto Pet Daily reported that in 2016 there were about 2 Million Homeless Dogs in Canada and I know there were recent reports of bird populations decreasing due to the number of stray cats. Although there are so many shelters out there … [Read more...] about When Can Cats Have Kittens? How Old does the cat have to be?
Kitties, I miss spending time with you!
It's been another busy week in the Pets Overload household, but with the second week of classes done, I think I'm starting to get the handle of how my schedule works. Beau and Kalista have returned to fairly normal. Spending lots of time in their Meowfia beds. It was nice to have today off so I could take pictures of my little ones. It feels like forever since I last … [Read more...] about Kitties, I miss spending time with you!

Hey Pet Parents & Pet Lovers, You all know how crazy this week has been with my new added courses and trying to figure out a way to make sure our kitties don't feel like I'm abandoning them, so I made sure to take this weekend off from the computer and posting to make sure I spend a lot of time cuddling them.
