Recycled Cat Litter Cardboard Box
The title of this post is sounding pretty strange but I'm truly not recycling cat litter or the cat box. Today I'm recycling the heavy cardboard box that holds the cat litter.

A New Puppy at Our House
This is not your usual DIY post from me, this story is introducing you to one of our latest family members. Meet Finn, or TheFinnstasinsta as he's known on Instagram.
In this story I'd like you to meet the little bundle of energy and maybe I can even get some tips and tricks from you this time.

Do it Yourself New Kitten Projects
My day began as any other day but today is the first day of my summer break, what a perfect time to add to the family! As some of you know, we just lost our "Kitty." We had her for 23 years (yes, 23!) and it was starting to get a little lonely around here despite the fact that we have a 10 month old lab puppy. If you are a cat lover you will know what I mean. My 5th grandchild is due in August and we have a new puppy, but I needed a new cat. Call me crazy!
My daughter and I set out to visit a few home foster places for cats but finally ended up at the Little Shelter near our home. They had room after room of large cats and a small room for kittens. If you have it in your heart to adopt an adult cat, there are literally hundreds of them in the shelter. It's very sad but I sup…

DIY Dog Fence
Our Jack Russell can climb a fence.Don't let that innocent look fool you!
She was climbing up the side of a 2 1/2' dog fence and waking us up every night.
I know... she's amazing...but that had to stop!
I tried the store bought fences and gates,she either climbed over the top or broke through.
Tried the crate... no luck.
I decided to build a fence myself, this way it could be high enough (I hope) and sturdy.
I toe-nailed together 2x4 pieces of wood.
I attached metal screening with heavy duty staples and screws and washers at each corner.
I stained the wood with a vinegar and steel wool solutionthen added a little number bling.
After all, if I have to have a dog fence in my kitchen it should look nice.
A decorative solution to a climbing Jack Russell.
I wonder if she can read too..…
