Halloween is my favourite time of year. While some might name Christmas or some other special day as their favourite, I have always most enjoyed the scary season.

So put out the cat, pull down the shades, and Join me inside as I dare to reveal a few frightfully fun ways to make the most of this one and only evening of fear and fun.

If your child is lobbying you for their very first pet, you may have concerns about the general welfare of the beast, such as whether or not your child will remember to feed or clean up after it. If this is a worrisome issue for you, you can always opt instead to get them a robotic pet. Take, for example, the very lifelike Zoomer Kitty Interactive Robotic Cat. There are no messes to clean up, and there’s no need to feed her, yet she behaves much like a real live cat. She plays, she purrs, and she’s your child’s fine feline friend. Read on to learn more about what this kool kitty can do!
