My gal Gretchen will be staying at Urban Tails for three weeks in April. I went to visit them this week and their space is lovely. I”m darn nervous about my baby being away from home but I’m sure she’ll be just fine!

I love when you have Ando demonstrate the products. It helps me imagine my black kitty Soba enjoying them!

I live in Vancouver, and I would love to send my kittens to Urban Tails when I’m away, but they don’t like to leave home, so I use their cat sitting services instead. Urban Tails is great!

I bought one of these and was happily shocked how sturdy it is! My 2 cats also like to tear up cardboard like crazy! However, neither one of them have attemped to scratch on it at all and I have had it for a few months now. They both enjoy sleeping in the hammock part, but if it is “occupied” they will sleep on top. Also one of my cats likes to store all of her toys under the hammock part. It is pretty cute how she will carry them over and toss them in the box! I believe they like it because it is enclosed and offers that secure feeling without being too confined because of the side hole “windows” Just thought I would add my take on this great product =)

I love the TV. These photos are so cute. One reason I love Modern Cat is because of the wonderful photos you use of cute kitties. They cheer me up every day!

I love the creativit;y of these ideas, using things that we have or can be found at yard sales. it makes it fun to have to find the supplies, then to create the projects, and see our babies enjoy the results. plus the projects are family friendly, so the kids can join in the fun. my first project is going to me the window seats. wish me luck

I’m also having the problem. I recently changed from using Microsoft Entourage to Apple’s Mail program, but I don’t know if this is related. I just click the Internet link and look at the material on Safari.

The images aren’t loading in my email either. This only started happening recently.

I do not see pictures either. I’m using a Mac, if it was sent from a PC maybe it is compatibility issues. Some types of image files (like .bmp) are windows based and a different OS may not show them unless you open them in a special software (like Adobe). I use an AOL account but view it using Mac mail or my iphone. I can’t see the pictures on either one.

I seem to be like everyone else, it’s just been the last few emails. I found that if I right-click where the image should be and select “show picture”, it will!

Same; I got images today but not for the last week. There’s no indication that it’s missing images, no broken link symbol. They’re just not there. I thought you weren’t putting any in.

i’ve also been having this problem for about a week. i’m using hotmail on firefox, and usually it will tell me it’s intentionally not displaying images, but in this case it seems to think it is showing them, so there is no button to hit. what it is displaying appears to be the name of the picture, just not the picture. since other people are dealing with this too, it seems like a moderncat thing, and not an increased email security thing. i just click the link to read articles at the site.

I’ve been having this problem for about a week too, but I figured it was an AOL issue. Seems to be an on again, off again issue with them and email, but Modern Cat emails are the only ones affected right now. I’m using Firefox 3.6 (I don’t use the AOL software, so I’m reading with Firefox). Usually refreshing will make the images load but not always. The site is always fine.

Same problem; I thought you were trying to redirect traffic to your website and that’s why I didn’t bring it up originally in any posts. A while ago, the pictures were fine, and when they weren’t showing, all I had to do was click the “show pictures” link… but even that’s not working! Weird!

Images from Modern Cat consistently load well on my gmail address, when I open it on my computer (Mac). However, none of them come up when I look at the same mailbox on my Blackberry, even after clicking “load images”

I have this problem sporadically. Refreshing the page or closing the email and then opening it again worked to make the images show the few times that I’ve tried it.

I’ve also had some emails with some images not showing up, while others are fine. If I recall correctly, it was the first few images that didn’t show while the others were fine. I think the broken images might have all been in one post.

Yup. Recent development the last week or so. I use Mail in Mac OS 10.5.8 but they don’t come up in Gmail/Safari either. Everything came up fine today though.

I am having problems with part of the email-bottom portion. Often half will show 1/2 will not. I have msn mail.

I’m having the same problem — pictures are not downloading in e-mail. They used to download perfectly. Alas, no more.
