Hey, Fellow Cat Enthusiasts!
Welcome to Complete Cat Guide! I’m Matthew Coleman, the guy behind this little corner of the internet where all things feline take center stage. If you’ve ever found yourself mesmerized by a cat’s graceful leap or puzzled by their midnight zoomies, then we’re already on the same wavelength.
This blog is my way of diving deep into the world of cats—sharing what I’ve learned, laughing at their antics, and helping you give your whiskered pals the best life possible. So, grab a cup of coffee (or a catnip tea if you’re feeling adventurous), and let’s get to know each other!
Who I Am
I’m a 40-year-old cat devotee living in a cozy suburban home somewhere in the good ol’ USA—exact coordinates withheld to protect the privacy of my furry overlords.
Picture me as your average middle-aged American guy, except my idea of a wild Friday night involves a laser pointer and a couple of purring companions. I share my space with three cats, each with their own quirks and personalities, and they’re the heartbeat of my days.
My love affair with cats kicked off way back when I was a scrappy kid growing up in a small town. One rainy afternoon, I stumbled across a soggy kitten hiding under a porch. I scooped her up, named her Whiskers (original, I know), and that was it—I was a cat person for life.
Fast forward through decades of scratched furniture, endless vet visits, and more cat hair than I care to admit, and here I am, still just as smitten. Over the years, I’ve turned into a bit of a cat nerd, soaking up everything I can about their health, habits, and happiness.
Why Complete Cat Guide Exists
This blog isn’t just a hobby—it’s a mission born from years of trial, error, and triumphs as a cat owner. I started Complete Cat Guide because I know how overwhelming it can be to sift through the mountain of cat info out there.
When I got my first cat, I was clueless—drowning in questions like, “Why won’t she eat this fancy food?” or “Is she plotting my demise from atop the fridge?” I wanted answers that were straightforward, reliable, and didn’t make me feel like I needed a PhD in feline studies.
So, my purpose here is to cut through the noise. I’m all about delivering no-nonsense advice, digging into the nitty-gritty of cat care, and sprinkling in some real-life stories that’ll make you nod and say, “Yep, been there.”
Whether it’s decoding your cat’s meows, tackling litter box woes, or finding the perfect toy to keep them entertained, I’ve got your back. My dream? To help every cat live a long, joyful life—and to make sure their humans enjoy the ride just as much.
Who I’m Talking To
This blog is for anyone who’s ever fallen under a cat’s spell—or wants to. Maybe you’re a newbie cat owner, wide-eyed and wondering how to keep that tiny ball of chaos alive.
Or perhaps you’re a veteran, with a house full of felines and a knack for spotting a hairball from a mile away. Either way, you’ll find something here that clicks.
- Newbies: I’ll walk you through the basics—think kitten-proofing your home or figuring out why your cat insists on napping in the sink.
- Pros: I’ll dive into the deeper stuff, like managing multi-cat households or exploring the latest in feline nutrition.
- Cat Admirers: Even if you don’t have a cat (yet!), you’ll enjoy the tales and trivia that celebrate these enigmatic creatures.
If you’re here because you want your cat to thrive—or just because you can’t resist a good cat story—you’re my kind of people.
How I Roll
I like to think of Complete Cat Guide as a conversation, not a lecture hall. My style is laid-back and real—like we’re swapping cat tales over a backyard barbecue.
I’ll break down the complicated stuff (say, why grain-free diets aren’t always the holy grail) into bite-sized pieces you can actually use. No jargon, no fluff—just the good stuff, served up with a side of humor.
Expect a mix of practical how-tos, personal musings, and the occasional “you won’t believe what my cat did” moment. I’m not here to preach or pretend I’ve got all the answers—cats are too mysterious for that.
Instead, I’m sharing what’s worked for me, what I’ve learned from experts, and what I’ve picked up from my own trio of troublemakers. Oh, and if I can sneak in a cat pun or two, I absolutely will. (What do you call a cat sitting on the beach? A purr-seidon!)
A Peek Into My Cat-Centric World
- My Crew: There’s Luna, the sassy tabby who rules the roost; Milo, the cuddly goofball who thinks he’s a dog; and Shadow, the aloof black cat who only loves me when treats are involved. They’re my inspiration—and my quality control team.
- Fun Fact: I’m obsessed with Siamese cats. Their sleek look and chatty nature get me every time. I don’t have one (yet), but I’m always dreaming of adding a vocal little buddy to the gang.
- Cat Wisdom I Live By: “In ancient times, cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this.” —Terry Pratchett. It’s a perfect reminder of why my cats act like they own the place—and why I’m okay with it.
- Best Cat Memory: One night, Milo decided my laptop was the perfect bed while I was mid-blog-post. I lost an hour’s work, but his purring face made it impossible to be mad. That’s when I knew these cats had me wrapped around their paws.
