Crystal & Ivy
Hello Catsters, I’m Crystal. I work within the advertising and marketing division for Catster. You will have seen a few of my posts on our social media and listened to a few of my tales on our YouTube channel.
I’ve all the time thought of myself to be a canine particular person. Nonetheless, there is no such thing as a longer any doubt that I’m, in actual fact, a cat particular person!
Adopting my first cat opened my eyes in so some ways and taught me the true that means of getting a soul reference to an animal.
I can‘t think about my life with out my kitty, Ivy, and her day by day antics. It’s been a tough journey, however a phenomenal one, and she or he has enriched my life in so some ways.
As each cat guardian is aware of, cat possession doesn’t come with out its personal set of distinctive hurdles and challenges…

I shall be sharing a few of my experiences as a lifelong cat lover and proprietor and what it’s prefer to be the cat mother of a sassy little tabby cat referred to as Milly, who you additionally could have seen on the YouTube channel. Milly is the apple of my eye, the supply of my happiness, and although she will make me very mad typically, I really like her with all my coronary heart.
She’s a 6-year-old white/tabby cat that I rescued as a 4-week-old, undesirable kitten in a really small city the place I studied. She was born in a bar of all locations! We turned finest pals the second we met, although it took some time for her to belief me as a result of she was feral, she knew I used to be there to save lots of her.
Since then, we’ve had some wild adventures collectively.

Wes & Raphael the Russian Blue
What do you name a cat-obsessive who spends all day engaged on options for cats of the world, and all night cuddling with a cat of his personal? Effectively, a Catster after all!
Howdy reader, my identify’s Wes. By day, I’m Director of Hepper (Catster’s sister ecommerce model). By night time (and typically by lunch), I’m the loving protector of a fierce monster referred to as Raphael the Russian Blue. Okay, truthful sufficient…he’s actually MY protector, and actually, the one monster he’d rely as is without doubt one of the ‘cuddle’ selection.
At this early stage, there are two issues you want to learn about Raphael. First, he’s for sure, the hungriest cat you’ve ever encountered. There are rumours (as but unconfirmed) that he entered an consuming contest in the summertime of ‘23, and bankrupted the corporate that put it on. When requested for touch upon the scandal, he was reported to have responded “meow”.
The second factor to learn about Raphael is that the one factor he loves as a lot as a hearty meal is a fulsome cuddle. Raphael will get on board the snuggle prepare after we’re on the couch, in mattress, working on the desk. In reality, expensive reader, I hope it gained’t concern you an excessive amount of to know that rest room time is usually intercepted with a cuddle break if the door is left open. All cats have completely different personalities, after all, however it doesn’t cease me from telling myself throughout each cuddle that it means I can’t be doing THAT badly at taking care of him.
I all the time suppose probably the most fascinating a part of pet possession is that it’s each intensely communal and totally particular person. All of us have precisely the identical experiences and completely completely different ones. Should you’d prefer to share your journey with Raphael and me, to chortle at his shenanigans, and smile at how he reminds you of your individual family members, learn and remark alongside. We’ll be ready for you!
