Hello… my name is Brackers. As you can imagine I go by a whole host of other names. It’s “Brackers” today. My dominant feature is I’m a black long haired cat. Another thing that stares you in the face is the fact that I only have one of my front …
It was a sad day for us here at Belle’n’Paws. As I write this… a few weeks have gone by as you are reading this. We lost one of our family. We were still setting up the website so we hadn’t yet started talking about Skittles. It’s with a sad …
The title says it all. Maybe some of you have heard about the benefits of having a black light as a pet owner. Whether you have a cat or a dog, it’s probably a good idea to get yourself a good portable black light for spotting the inevitable stain that …
Well… things are coming along nicely here at Belle’n’Paws.com. We’ve got a structure in place for the site and a vision as to how we’d like to see the website someday. The site is by no means close to how we see it, once it’s come to fruition but the …
Hello there ! My name is Paws. Yes, the “Paws” in our website title here. My sister “Belle” is mentioned as well. I got my name because my paws have a bit “extra”!
EDIT: This was our original post for Belle’s Bio. We encourage you to read this post however, since this posting we have lost Belle in May 2024. We will always love her and she will always be in our heart. Well… hello there. My name is “Belle”. I’m commonly called …
The decision to add a feline to the family sometimes accompanies a decision as to whether to have the cat’s claws removed. Usually, this is a practice of removing the cat’s front claws only and not the back ones but can sometimes be both. The procedure must be done by …
Aside from being overweight Belle and Paws were de-clawed from their previous owners. Both of them had their front claws removed while still keeping their back ones. We were never given a reason why. We were just told that it was done when Belle was spay and Paws was neutered. …
Belle and Paws have slimmed down quite a bit since they’ve joined us. When we first acquired the two of them, they were both a little overweight. Belle and Paws now have specific feeding times during the day with wet cat food and don’t eat dry food regularly. We switched …
The term “rescue” here is used lightly. As pet owners, we didn’t rescue them from any dire circumstances where they were being mistreated or neglected. At least, that didn’t seem to be the case when we agreed to take them. Belle and Paws were overweight, and while we believe both …
We’ve made it no secret here that we advocate for senior animals as much as we can here. It certainly is the premise behind our mantra “Senior pets still have love to give”. More on our own senior pet’s journey HERE. Senior animals should be first on the list for adoption …
EDIT: Since the time of this posting, Zipper has passed away from his cancer. We’ve left the bio here as he will always remain in our hearts and always part of the family. Hello. My name is “Zipper Mc’Doodles”. “Zippy” for short. I pretty much respond to any variation of …
We are a couple who have been with each other for so long we can’t remember not being with each other. All kidding aside, during that time we’ve had many pets and a number of problem case animals through the years. We have a vast amount of experience handling animals …
Initially, BellenPaws.com was just going to be a place to share photos of our new feline adoptees Belle ‘n’ Paws. As we started getting going on the website it seemed easy enough to add a few more things that may help other pet owners and animal lovers in the form …
Initially, we started getting a few questions related to our images on the website. As cute as Belle ‘n’ Paws are… the questions came more about the rope we were using for the trees they are usually pictured sitting in. Some eagle eyed peeps had asked if we had made …
