Pet Lovers: Express Yourselves in Style!

Whether a dog owner, cat owner, or both, pet lovers often think of their pets as extensions of themselves. It’s important to express our love for pets in our homes and even in our apparel. Make sure to have a proud collection of pet accessories and memorabilia at home to ensure guests know a proud pet enthusiast when visiting. Our apparel too should reflect our love of pets. Wear a T-shirt featuring a favorite breed or pet, or even carry a cat or dog tote instead of a traditional purse or bag. These bold expressions let the whole world know that we’re pet lovers and we’re proud of it!

Pet lovers also love to take their pets with them at all times, so having the right pet travel accessories is important. Whether it’s a dog stroller, cat carrier, or pet tote, we need to have the meats to keep our pets close with us at all times. Even though some pets might protest being put in a stroller or carrier, all pets love to spend time with their owners.

Fun Beds for Felines

The average housecat spends more than 18 hours a day sleeping, thus, it’s important for owners to provide their cat with a comfortable cat bed for rest and relaxation. Cat beds are for more than just aesthetic purposes, as a cat that sleeps in their bed will also not be shedding fur on the furniture. In addition, most cat beds are convenient for cleaning and cats also love to spend time there. There are several variations of cat beds. The raised cat bed, for example, is on a higher level for cats that like to have a view of all that is happening in the periphery. Raised cat beds are also great for owners who have cats and dogs, as the cats can use their elevated position to get away from pesky canines. There is also the catnip bed, which will fast become a favorite resting place for even the most rambunctious of cats. The cat snuggle bed is another great option for felines who have the tendency to want to get under bed covers.

The cat chooses the bed, not the owner, so make sure to purchase a cat bed only if it has a return policy! It’s common for cats to not like a bed because of its smell, and thus, pre-owned beds are a no-no as well.

cat bowl mat

Indoor pets can make a really make a mess when they’re eating. Many cats, for example, have no issue with playing in their water, putting food outside of the bowl or dropping pieces of food in their water. Messy pets can cause owners to spend valuable time cleaning up after them. Most owners would rather spend this time bonding with their pet.

A cat bowl mat is a good way to make sure you won’t have to spend 20 minutes a day cleaning up after your kitty. By simply putting the mat underneath your cat’s water and food bowls you can catch all the spills and crumbs that would normally end up on the floor. All you need to do to clean the matt is wash it off in the sink, dry it off and replace it.

fleece cat bed

Anyone who has a cat knows how much they love to knead. Kneading is a natural behavior for cats and starts when they are tiny kittens. Kittens knead in order to help their mothers produce milk for them to suckle. This behavior continues when kittens become adults.

It’s adorable when kitties knead, but it can be painful if it’s you they choose to knead on. Cats prefer soft areas for kneading (similar to their mother’s teats) so they will likely target a soft blanket or towel. Giving your feline friend a fleece cat bed will allow him to knead to his heart’s content and his purr will let you know he’s happy.

If you’ve purchased any variety of catnip toys or catnip accessories for your cat, you know that they don’t have the same appeal for your feline after a few months. The incessant chewing and slobbering that it first incited has a way of stemming or stopping completely.

One particularly tricky item is the catnip bed. After your cat sleeps in it every night, it can lose its potency and, subsequently, its appeal.

So are you doomed to buy a new catnip bed every time your cat turns up its nose? Luckily, there are several easy and quick solutions.

catnip bed

-Try simply rubbing the catnip inside the bed together. As the herb rubs, it becomes reinvigorated and once again fully releases its scent.

-If that doesn’t work, add a small amount of fresh catnip to the bed. Again, rub the contents to “activate” the herb.

-If you still can’t muster any excitement out of your kitty, spray the entire bed with a liquid catnip oil spray. Kooky Kat Catnip Budz in a Bottle is one possible brand.
