WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO MEET OTIS JOE, A CAT LIKE NO OTHER
OTIS JOE & ASHLEY JO
Our director of advertising Ashley Kristjansson is a self proclaimed crazy cat lady … with only one cat. Luckily for Ashley, and now the entire world, that one feline is a world class nap taker, the gold standard of grumpiness, and God’s gift to Instagram. Everyday, tens of hundreds of people are inspired by the one and only Otis Joe to cuddle, mooch, and snack on turkey deli meat to their heart’s content. Otis is a soon to be ten year old house kitty, his lineage is unknown-like most comic book heroes-but mom Ashley believes he is part Turkish Van, perhaps explaining his love for the aforementioned sandwich meat. “I love him as though he were my furrrst born, I am his familiar if you will, unfortunately, my husband is his favorite person-reluctantly I might add-but I will continue to fight for his undying love and attention.” His life has been full of ups and downs, from his early experiences with the outside world to the comfort of his cat stroller, as well as his long battle with “cat acne” Otis has etched his name into the annuals of cat history. Now, for the first time ever, the legendarily lazy feline will allow our cameras into his everyday life. Main Street Magazine and its readers have been granted one of a kind access to the King of Catnaps and all of his furbaby adventures, won’t you join us? What do you say Otis?

THE OTIS FEED: A DAY IN THE LIFE OF
My Jam
I’m not sure if any of you dear readers know this, but my Mom LOVES to sing; almost as much as she loves me. She’s constantly singing and is actually really good at it. The only critique I have is how loud she likes her music; purrhaps that’s a story fur another day.
Occasionally, Mom makes up her own songs – she’s whipped up a couple fur Ellie and even Dad and they both know them and sing along when she breaks out in song. Mom […]
Turkey Day
Halloween is only a couple weeks away and I have yet to nail down a fur-sure costume, but I can’t be worrying about that right meow – I have bigger fish to fry. I can’t believe my ears but, appurrently, Mom and Dad are hosting Turkey Day…at our house!
Please feel furree to correct me if I’m a little out of line, but I have a few questions and concerns regarding this butter-ball-bombshell.
Fur starters, why?
There’s nothing like a doggie-bag filled with left ovfurr turkey. Does Mom […]
All Kinds Of Bugs
Mom was right – school is back in session, which means evfurryone is apt to get a bug of some sort. Mom took Ellie to the doctors yesterday just to be on the safe side because when someone is feeling even just a little under the weather, sneezes sideways, or coughs because a piece of catnip went down the wrong pipe; now-a-days folks automatically assume its Covid. You know what assume means people? Sorry fur the cattitude – but this is even starting to affect […]
Instagram vs. Reality
Rainbows and butterflies sure are beautiful, but life isn’t purrfect. I often times find myself scratching behind my ears, not just because of an itch, but because I wonder why evfurryone feels the need to post only purrfect photos on their social media? Mom is no exception to this annoying, unwritten rule.
I know I’m cute and all, but enough with the photos already. Mom constantly has the camera in my face, snapping multiple photos – trying to get something Instagram worthy. Fur […]
