Sweet Pups



Shannon & Fiona,
Ellis wanted to make sure her new sis, Terra, had the ability to be just as stylish as she is. In fact, Ellis has been busy showing Terra the ropes about being a good girl in all respects at her new home, like posing and napping peacefully. Just wanted to share a couple of photos of our new Lucky Fiona model at home. Take care and thanks for keeping my girls looking beautiful. ~ Kalin

Starving Cats - A True Life Saga

My Version:
Realized in morning we were out of crunchy cat food while pouring last of airtight storage container out into cat bowl. Texted husband same morning "Stop at Healthy Pet & pick-up crunchy cat food on way home" Went about day. Husband returns from work at 2:00 p.m. with two ten pound bags of high quality crunchy cat food due to Buy One Get One Free deal. Fill cat bowls.

Sully & Brody's Version:
The day is long and our stomachs are empty. We huddle together on one cat bed to try to retain our body heat as we have used up all our fat reserves due to early stages of starvation. The lady comes in and out of the laundry room in a trance, emptying laundry and carrying recyclables. We do our best to get her attention that WE ARE VERY HUNGRY. We jump on and off things, we dance, we meow, we block her feet as she limps past us with a full laundry basket. Yet, she does not seem to notice the direness of the situation. It's as if she is ignoring the fact it has been 3 hours since we had crunchy food. If only we could get through to her!
In desperation Brody goes down behind the washing machine looking for any stale bits of food that may have fallen prior. I scream to her "No! It's too dangerous! There are hoses!" But her hunger was too great. It was then I saw the rock bottom. We slept the early afternoon away, dreaming of seafood and tasty bits of chicken. Why? Why is this happening to us!!!
Then the door from the garage opens and he enters. The sunlight filtering his silhouette and the awesome vision of our saviour, our hero, our CatDad. He carries not one, but two bags of crunchy food! Unlike the cruel awful mean terrible lady he hears our cries and says "Are you hungry?" He then proceeds to fill our bowls. We are hungry no more.
That night we purr and cuddle with CatDad and give long hateful stares to the mean-lady who denied us our sustenance. We are both profoundly changed from the experience and hope to create a support group for other felines who may have empty crunchy food bowls. Godspeed.

Ummm, really?


I'm a supporter of all my fellow Etsy artists, especially those who make animal companion products. But I have to say I am a little jealous that in all the years of selling on Etsy I never landed on the front page...yet this particular seller did today. I guess my gorgeous custom collars cannot hold a candle to air fresheners you put over your dog or cat's butt hole.

Where am I going wrong and please somebody tell me this product is a hoax. Or if you've used it I would like a full report of ummm, well, why?
