If you read the last chapter then you know the tips to cat-proof your home. Next, let’s go into the next chapter of the cat series: How to entertain your furry friend. These tips will not only entertain your furry ball of happiness, but also entertain you in the process.

Our cat is entirely his own personality. Our cat Jinx enjoys the way we spoil him. He has so many things he does not need. So if you enjoy spoiling your four-legged friends, then read on to find another set of tips on how to spoil/ entertain your furry friend.

1. Laser Pointers

Our cat loves to chase things, so we invested in a laser pointer. Jinx loves to chase it up and down the hallway. This is a great way to give him exercise while he is an indoor cat.

2. Windows

Keep a window perch so your furry friend can keep an eye on the outside world. Even indoor cats enjoy the outdoors!

3. Attention

Schedule time with your cat. They need attention, and if they don't get attention they usually destroying something. Our cat gets very quiet when he gets into something he isn’t supposed to.

4. Cat Trees

Jinx has his own cat tree. He is allowed to scale up and down the tree as much as he wants. We even tied some old curtains around it to make it fun for him.

5. DIY Toys

Along with the cat tree, we have DIY cat toys that include a mouse on a string hanging from a chair or doorway. He loves chasing it up and down.

Jinx has his own wants when it comes to entertainment, mainly getting into things he isn’t allowed to. I looked on Pinterest for DIY cat toys. Check out this link to make your own cat puzzles. I used an old Tupperware container!

Let me know if you have any additional tips!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
