WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO MEET STELLA + JOEY
OTIS JOE & ASHLEY JO

Our director of advertising, Ashley Kristjansson, is a self proclaimed crazy cat lady who once upon a time only had one cat. Luckily for Ashley, and the entire world, that one feline, Otis, used this platform to take us on many indoor kitty adventures and earned himself quite the fan following. Upgrading from one to two cats, Ashley would like to introduce her new furbabies, Stella and Joey, whom are now taking over the monthly Main Street Magazine pet web posts. Readers have been granted one of a kind access to the King and Queen of Ashley’s heart and all of their furbaby adventures. Won’t you join us?

THE CAT FEED: A DAY IN THE LIFE OF
Snowed In
Good morning, furriends! I’m not sure how much snow you have at your house, but at my house we have a good 2 feet! You could say we were snowed in – thank goodness I’m an indoor kitty! There is however one huge purrroblem with all this snow; it makes it really hard to watch my birdies. Oh humbug! I love my front row seat for bird spying, but with mountains of snow piled up, my little feathered friends hardly ever come down where I […]
Turketarian
Given tomorrow’s Turkey motif, I thought it might be appurropriate to discuss my love for the famous bird. Well, fur me, it’s more of a lifestyle choice really. Some of you may choose to eat exclusively vegetables, or –even stranger- fish (you pesky pescatarians). I, on the other paw, am a self-purr-claimed Turketarian [spelling courtesy of Hillshire Farm]. My purrentes buy turkey deli meat for the sole purpose of feeding this habit. Spoiled much? I think NOT! Purrhaps my love fur this delicious meat stems […]
Pawliday Stress
I’m sure you’re like me, when we were younger the holidays were a lot less stressful. Now it seems, this time of the year means expansive to-do lists, and hoards of humans descending on my house to take up space on my favorite spots on the couch. All of this commotion is no good for my scaredy-cat nerves, my R&R time, and most importantly, my skin care routine. For years I’ve struggled with cat-acne causing unpleasant trips to the vet, and an embarrassing amount of […]
The Purrrrfect Birthday Gift
This may be a little known fact to most, but today is my Mom’s purrrrthday. And although she is struggling with the idea of turning 30, I would like to remind her that, in cat years, I’m trudging through my mid-50s. Lest she forget in her old age, ten years ago, I was the best birthday present she has ever received. Over the last decade, I’ve endured her smothering me with kisses, her DEAFENING cat-mom voice, and more than my personal preference of trips to […]
