With National Cat Day coming up on October 29, we're all over our lovable pet cat, Oscar. I mean, not that we don't spoil him everyday. No matter what day or occasion, Oscar is one pampered cat who has been a true part of our family since he came into our lives almost four years ago.
Besides providing Oscar a very clean and comfortable living environment (he is an indoor cat), another way we strengthen our bond with him is by creating new meal experiences for him so that he is not eating the same foods (wet or dry) all of the time. Oscar is the kind of cat that has a broad preferences in food and craves variety. So offering him new tastes and textures is something that we do from time to time, while working with our veterinarian to monitor his weight, adjust the food amounts we give him accordingly and to keep up with his health in general.
Talking about Oscar's food, we recently asked our vet about whether feeding Oscar more wet food than dry food (or vice versa) would make any difference in health benefits for him. And it's interesting what our vet said about this:
1. If your cat is in good health and you're feeding 100% complete and balanced cat foods appropriate for your cat's life stage, then feeding wet or dry food to your cat is largely a personal preference. Your cat is still getting the nutrition his body needs to support good health.
2. If your cat prefers the crunchy texture of dry food, then feed him dry food keeping in mind that dry cat food offers dental, teeth-cleaning benefits. If he likes the variety of textures available in wet foods, then that's also great because wet foods has high water content and can help supplement your cat's daily water needs. The moisture in wet foods helps provide your cat with healthy hydration.
So when it comes to Oscar's food, we find it helpful to work with our veterinarian to determine a nutritious combination of wet and dry food for him. Choosing delicious, nutritional balance of wet and dry food for Oscar is very important to us.
Lately, Oscar has been really loving the Purina® Muse® line of wet and dry cat food at Petco!
For dry food, Oscar loves the Purina Muse Sailing with Salmon Natural Salmon, Egg & Yogurt Recipe Adult Grain-Free Dry Cat Food made with delicious natural ingredients like real salmon, eggs, nonfat yogurt, whole blueberries and vitamin-rich spinach.

Printable Fall "You Had Me At Meow" Art
Since it's fall and I am anticipating the celebration of National Cat Day, I thought I would feature a fall-themed framed art incorporating our love for our cat, Oscar.
I designed this simple, printable art in 8x10 size. I hope you will enjoy displaying it on your wall, or as an accent on your mantel or entryway table like I did!
I love mine layered with other fall-themed decorative accents on my main entryway accent table. 🙂
How to get your own Fall-themed "You Had Me At Meow!" 8x10 framed art:
- Download the art print here (vertical) or here (horizontal).
- Print the art on matte or satin paper. Since my printer is not very helpful these days, I went to my local print shop and got mine printed on matte paper for less than $2.
- Mount it in any picture frame that can display an 8x10 size art print.
Voila! You have a ready-to-hang or display fall-themed art print showing your love for your cat! 🙂
As you can see, we find ways to bond with Oscar. Whatever I do - whether I'm working around the house, working on my computer, or when I'm cooking or crafting, he loves hanging around like a loyal friend, and he does that to everyone in the house.
This is just one of the many reasons why we love and adore our pet cat so much! 🙂

Your cat is so pretty. It has been over 9 years since I have had a cat in the house. I had to put my cat to sleep and it was a tough decision because he was the sweetest cat ever. He was adopted from the pound and he ended up getting super sick. 🙁
Now we have a Yorkie and even though I haven't ever been a dog fan, he won my heart.
My sister has a cat and I know that he is quite spoiled too. He gets a mix of dry and wet food.

My mom had a hard time adjusting to an empty nest, so she got a cat for each of children as we moved out. There were six of us...so you can imagine the fun at her house. She's going to love that printable and the cats will love Muse.
Annemarie LeBlanc says
You have such a beautiful cat! I just love those blue eyes and fluffy coat! Thanks for your review of Purina Muse. it looks like something my own cats would love as well.
My Teen Guide says
My cats would love this! Choosing the right cat food is really hit or miss. Sometimes a really healthy variant comes along but they won't even come near it. However, this Purina Muse I know they will love. Good that it has both wet and dry variants.

I've not heard of this brand before. I love trying out new brands with my cats. I know they like when I mix things up as well.

We're going to have to check out a few of the wet food flavors. I'm definitely liking the sound of those ingredients!
Jenna Wood says
I simply adore the printable- and I love your tips on choosing the right food for your pet. Our cat eats 95% dry- she just doesn't like wet, she'll only lick the broth- she is SO strange! #client
Bill Sweeney says
This sounds like great food. It's hard to find a healthy food that cats will eat. They're a lot like kids that way. =D
