KIX Kitties and K9s: Meet Moonpie!

KIX Kitties and K9s: Meet Moonpie!

Meet Moonpie! He’s a black and white tuxedo cat so he’s always fancy. He’s got a big personality and an even bigger love for playtime—especially if it involves wrestling with his feline buddies. He’s got a curious heart and a signature head-tilt hello that’ll melt your heart on the spot. He needs a little time to decompress when he’s somewhere new, but give him some love (and a few tasty treats) and he’ll start rubbing his head on you right away. If you’re looking for a playful, spirited companion who just needs a little patience to settle in, he’s the purrfect match for you!

Why the ninebark shrub deserves a spot in your garden

How many of you have ever heard of the Ninebark shrub or Physocarpus opulifolius for those of you who like to get technical? I hadn’t until recently! Since then I have learned that the Ninebark is also referred to in horticulture circles as Common Ninebark, Atlantic Ninebark, or Eastern Ninebark and is native to the eastern United States including North Carolina. Most frequently seen growing in the mountains and foothills of North Carolina, but seen less often in the central part of the state. It seems to like rocky hillsides and slopes near rivers. You won’t find ninebark growing very much in eastern North Carolina.… Continue Reading
