Thriving single cats
practical cat care, fun enrichment, raw feeding, & clicker training
Sick of being told to get another cat? Me too!

I grew up with 9 pets and choose to have a single cat now…
And he’s THRIVING because of it.
Donβt get me wrong, I love all of the cats in my life. I had 11 cats before Jericho, worked with hundreds as a cat sitter, and my business is all about helping cats live a thriving life.
But Iβve learned the hard way over and over again with cats in my life who all ate dry food, didnβt get proper enrichment, and suffered serious health issues. Our last cat, Hemi, was only 3.5 years old when we said goodbye. Kidney failure πΏ
Now, I choose to have a single cat so I can give him 100% π And heβs thriving because of it even though heβs a single cat living in an apartment!
How I give my single cat a thriving life
π€
Practical living
I go above & beyond, but I don’t overconsume. I support businesses that actually care about our cats.
π»
Fun enrichment
Routines, functional furniture, playtime, clean litter box, & clicker training. AKA the essentials.

Healthy diet
Jericho eats a raw & whole prey diet because that’s what cats were made to eat.

I'm Jess and that's my cat boss Jericho π»
Eight years ago I quit corporate to pursue my passion in pet care.
I’ve had cats my whole life, but once I started working with hundreds of cats professionally I realized… I don’t know anything about cats!Β
Raw diets, enrichment needs, cats can be trained?! It’s all so fascinating and very eye-opening to me. So I decided to start this blog – Caticles to share my journey with Jericho.
Now I know that it’s ok (and even better, for me) to have a single cat. I feel that I can give 100% to Jericho, and he’s thriving because of it! Our bond has gotten stronger, and I feel confident that I’m giving him the best life possible.
And I’m passionate about helping other cat guardians do the same!
