Pet-Temp Ear Thermometer
Posted on | February 5, 2009 | No Comments
When something is wrong with a living body, a change in temperature is often one of the symptoms. Having an accurate read on any such change is a crucial way for us to monitor the health of those who cannot complain about other symptoms - be them babies or pets.
Ear thermometers have long become a household item, with this pet version being an essential item in any pet lover’s medical kit. While you can take a rectal reading with a traditional thermometer, it is certainly more stressful to the animal (last thing needed when they are already not feeling well), and if you’re not competent enough you could actually injure that delicate area. Many pet owners would rather take a cat to the vet than try a rectal reading at home, and for a good reason.
If you’re one of those, then this pet ear thermometer is what you need. It’s easy to use, fast and reliable.
If you are involved in animal rescue, then you may find a good thermometer invaluable (in fact you may already own one). It can also be useful for professional breeders, looking out to determine ovulation cycles in their queens.
Just keep one thing in mind, please. If you get a reading that is out of range, or have any indication that your cat is not well - always contact your vet. Never medicate a cat without a vet’s approval - some medications, even common pain relievers, can be extremely toxic to cats.

Golden Maneki Neko
Posted on | January 27, 2009 | No Comments
I love a spiritual touch to an office or a shop. A friend of mine actually made a little “shrine” in her beauty salon, where she lights candles and burns incense. It’s not a religious thing for her, just a nice way to start her day with some meditation and nice scents.
I just found the perfect addition to her little spiritual corner. And I think it will be purrfect in any cat lover’s home, office or shop. It’s a traditional Maneki Neko with a slot in its back. A takeoff on the piggy bank, this one is both feline, oriental and bound to bring a smile to your face.
In Japan, this is a typical ornament in shops, and is supposed to bring good luck and financial wealth into your life. To me, with its “smile” and raised hand, it has a welcoming appeal that I know would draw my attention to in any shop window.
Priced at well under $10 at Amazon, this original made-in-Japan Maneki Neko makes a great gift to yourself or to a friend - one that any cat loving business owner would love to have.

Pet Sleep-n-Store
Posted on | January 16, 2009 | No Comments
If you live in a small apartment, you probably want to make the most of your available space. Floor space, especially. Here’s a nifty piece of furniture that lets you do just that:
This combination unit allows you to provide your cat with comfortable and stylish sleeping quarters padded with a striped mattress. Above them you get a neatly organized white cabinet. Open the doors and a wealth of storage space is revealed.
You can see how great the storage space is for yourself, but I want to add a word here about the pet sleeping area. It is located low in the design, which for cats could be a disadvantage. Perfect for dogs, this combination can work well for an only cat, or cats that get along well with each other. In a multi-cat household where cats may feel less at ease, this arrangement may not feel safe enough for the felines. It can still be a good space for hanging around, sitting and watching… cozy and soft to the feel.
You can order this unit from Amazon and have the kit delivered to your home where will have to put it together - click for the full details to see how this piece of furniture fits into your home
HomeoPet Travel Anxiety
Posted on | December 30, 2008 | No Comments
Traveling can be a stressful experience for many cats. In fact, I suspect our own anxiety over the procedure may be rubbing off on the felines, but in this post, I’d like to introduce a natural homeopathic remedy for the cats:
“Travel Anxiety” as the name suggests is intended for treating the stress and fearful reactions of traveling. It’s for dogs and cats, and is said to help with motion sickness as well.
Now, you may not be a fan of homeopathy, but many cat owners report success with using these treatments. Again, it is more than possible that the owner’s own relief at providing some sort of help for a distressed animal is at play here. Does it really matter though? If it helps sooth the nerves of your cat without the side-effects of sedatives, why not give it a try?
Priced at under $10, you may want to keep this one in your medicine cabinet and have it ready for that next trip to the vet’s.

Scratch ‘n Play Ramp for Cats with Catnip
Posted on | December 21, 2008 | No Comments
You can never have enough scratching posts, especially with a new cat under your roof. You see, different cats have different tastes when it comes to scratching posts. Textures, angles and size all come into account. Location too. In fact, you may have to experiment for a while, try different posts for size. Here’s where this ramp fits right in:
The corrugated cardboard surface appeals to many cats, young and old. A combination of organic catnip and a dangling toy is always a good for attracting a curious feline. All in all, with this Scratch ‘n Play ramp, you will be offering your cat another great spot where it’s ok for her or him to sharpen their claws.
The lovely design makes this post great for every area of your home and the scratching block is actually reversible, so when one side wears down, you can just flip it over.

Still in the mood for pretty gifts for cat lovers, I found this absolutely lovely glass jar:
This delightful jar can make an absolutely wonderful unique gift for any cat lover. It’s the kind of collector’s item that lasts forever, both practical and beautiful.
Top quality octagonal glass jar with a polished aluminum top that comes with a rubber gasket for a tight seal. The top has a beautifully carved cat, playfully looking at a dangling fish.
The makers of this jar, Arthur court designs, recommend this jar for cat treats storage. It does make sense, although this pretty vessel can be used for pretty much anything. In fact, you can give fill it up, either with cat treats or simply chocolate or candy and then gift it to someone special.
This jar is not cheap, currently priced at $65 at Amazon, but it truly is an upscale gift that is sure to be appreciated by anyone with an eye for feline-themed collector’s items. I should also mention that a portion of the sales goes towards funding Wilderness and Wildlife Conservation.

Flensted Feline Cats Mobile
Posted on | December 15, 2008 | No Comments
When I first laid eyes on the title of this post, I was wondering what kind of a phone they were talking about…
Yet this wonderful mobile has nothing electronic about it. It brings back the original meaning of the word mobile, and in the 21st century, I find that refreshing.
Yes, we’re talking about a home decor item, where sleek dark feline shadows dance in delicate circles along three colorful balls. This one is an original Flensted mobile, a collector’s item, handmade in Denmark by a company that’s been making mobiles for over fifty years.
Carefully balanced, this work of art is designed to be constantly moving, drawing the eye to its elegant cats and adding an element of streaming motion in the room. It’s distinctly NOT a baby’s mobile, perfect for a grown-up room decor where you want to bring forward your love for everything feline. What a great gift idea, original and all cat!
