4Paws gives cause to pause…

Last week, I mentioned that Maryse was collecting afghan squares for an afghan for Elisa’s dad. Now Maryse is having a contest – anyone who sends her an afghan square by February 14 will be included in a prize drawing!

Ha – you think Chaos and May have had it bad with the bibs?! They shouldn’t complain – they could be wearing petal bibs.

Well, my experiment on Friday got a little out of hand, but it was a lot of fun – thanks to everyone who participated in the discussion! I’m definitely sticking with email responses to comments, but I will try to remember to also respond in the comments when appropriate.

Reading Update
Summon the Keeper by Tanya Huff. Hard to beat the tagline: “They were supposed to be saving the world, not running a B&B where Hell was one of the guests…”
The Second Summoning (The Keeper’s Chronicles #2) by Tanya Huff. Still a good read, but not as over-the-top good as Summon the Keeper.
Gate of Darkness, Circle of Light by Tanya Huff. More well-written urban fantasy (set in Toronto) from Canadian Tanya Huff.
Sorcery and the Single Girl by Mindy Klasky. Librarian and novice witch Jane Madison returns in another enjoyable novel of paranormal chick lit.

Surreality Update
I apologize in advance for the blurry pictures you are about to view. Dim lighting and no tripod conspired to create a more surreal effect than I’d planned… Yesterday I happened to be in Calhoun Square before it opened and noticed 4Paws Boutique (no website that I found), which is a store for “the pampered pet.” I’d say!

“But did she bring any goodies home for us?! Nope. Hmph.” -Chaos

Don’t you think he’d be grateful that I didn’t bring him home a leopard print cat jacket with pink trim?!

  1. WHEEEE first to comment… this is a first hehehe 🙂

    I think those stores are more for the owners of the pets than the pets… I don’t think a pet cares about the shape/color of his bowl or petbed do they??

    I started to read your comments of your friday experiment, but it was too much for me hehehe. I’d been thinking about doing it on my blog too, but I’d rather e-mail people individually somehow.

    Cheers Eva

  2. I was always bad enough in the Target pet department.. I wouldn’t be able to go in that pet shop without coming out with all sorts of things that Ms. Kitty doesn’t need or care about.

  3. I’m thinking you’re more grateful than Chaos. Your claws aren’t like little razor blades. Who on earth could get a jacket on a cat? I have trouble putting Esau in the carrier. Sheesh.

  4. That store looks so cool! I went to a boutique like that in Orlando once. They had a regular door for all the people to walk through and a smaller door for all the pets.

  5. Hmm… How many people does it take to get a leopard print jacket with pink trim on a cat, without serious injury to the humans anyway? The big orange fish thingy looks kind of interesting.

  6. I’m certainly glad you didn’t buy Chaos the pink-trimmed leopard print jacket. His silky black fur is handsome enough. He looks like he might be having a bit of a next morning ‘nip hangover.

  7. After seeing the pics of that store I realised my poor kitties are deprived. You could always make Chaos a PETAL BIB in pink trimmed leopard print.

  8. Ha! When I read the title of your post I was expecting that you had gone to dinner at Forepaugh’s in St. Paul. (Are they still open? I have no idea.) But the pet accessory store was much more entertaining. Probably lower calorie, too. Certainly gluten free.

  9. I cannot even begin to imagine why a cat would need a jacket. They’re already wearing luxurious fur coats.

    Oh, and after My Fuzzy Life, I TOTALLY forgive you for the bibs.
