Everyone and their cat is blogging, but who is reading?

Just in case you don't believe me, here is a proof that my cat Claudius is blogging.

So many blogs and bloggers are out there these days, that I just can't help but wonder: do most blogs go mostly unread?

I assume that most bloggers want to have readers, otherwise they would keep their posts private. I myself will be the first to admit that I enjoy seeing that someone read my post and even rated or commented on it. Yet it seems that with so many people posting all the time, my posts disappear from the live feed very quickly.

Thus, my question to you: do you blog just for the sake of blogging or do you hope that someone will actually read it?

Adopting a cat was the best decision

"Owner Surrender" the tag on his crate said at the animal shelter that my husband and I visited while looking for a kitty to adopt. Why, we wondered, but the people at the shelter didn't know.

He looked at us, said something like "prrrrrrrn", stretched, and came to greet us. We fell in love with him right there and then. We named him Claudius, and brought him home.

Claudius has been living with us for two months now, and our days have certainly been more fun because of him. He makes us smile, he makes us laugh, he makes us forget about stuff that hapenned at work.

No wonder they say that pets help to improve mental health. I believe it now.

If you are feeling low or just need some cheering up, adopting a kitty might be the way to go.
