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
Health Exam
I was recently enjoying one of my morning catnaps the other day, when what was once a pleasant slumber transformed -as happens- into a nightmare. After finally managing to open my eyes, I soon came to the realization that I was, in fact, caught in a living nightmare.
You see, my mother was on the phone with the vet’s office making an appointment for me to have a health exam for this coming Furrsday.
Not sure why I’d have to have a health exam? I’m feline fine; […]
Showing Off
So apparently there is another so called trend making the rounds on social media again. This #bellychallenge, has been going around Facebook and seems to be right up my alley. Yet, surpurrisingly, Mom hasn’t entered me.
Not sure what the hold up is. I’m purretty confident I’d win this challenge, paws down!
Okay – so it might not be a belly that’s ready fur summer, but I still have some time before its officially window sitting season (all you indoor kitty’s know what I’m talking about). At […]
Chores
As you all have come to know, my Mom is constantly cleaning and picking up after us here at home; as one might assume, she has become quite skilled in this arena.
The house always looks spotless.
I’ve seen commercials on TV featuring this Mr. Clean character. I think he and Mom are related? Any who, a couple times in passing Mom has asked me (in her cat mom voice of course), “Otis Joe, how come you don’t help do chores around the house? You’re home all […]
Pampurred on Valentine’s Day
I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine’s Day.
I was once again lucky enough to be pampurred furrom the top of my ears to the tip of my tail the entire weekend thanks to my one and only Valentine – Mom.
Furriday evening, after Ellie went night-night, Mom invited me onto her lap to be brushed. Being a long haired cat, there is nothing better than a good brushing. Mom got almost another cats worth of fur from me.
A real hairy situation fur sure, but better […]
