Modern Cat Condo Passes Feline Test

RONDO Wall Modern Cat CondoSly’s modern cat condo arrived this weekend. First, let me extol the excellent packing, delivered in perfect condition even though it traveled all the way from Germany! I am a bit like Rachel Maddow is about infrastructure when it comes to realistic packing. The very second I got it out of the box, Sly was in it! He adores it so much we haven’t had a chance to mount it on the wall. Every time there’s a lull in the chore list I think, now I’ll get the Rondo installed, he’s asleep in it! It is extremely-well made and so beautiful that even if he hadn’t become so attached to it right “out of the box” I would have been happy enough with it to find other uses for it [a multi-purpose cat condo!!] But he does love it so it’s a huge success all round. Thanks! - Diane

“Green” Pet Diner

Pet Diner

Looking for a new place for your kitty to eat? Want something up to date as well as earth friendly? We have the perfect thing! This Pet Diner is made solidly of Bamboo; with a water resistant finish and two top of the line stainless steel bowls. Bamboo can grow up to a rate of one meter a day. This means that when you cut a tree that is 60 years old, it will take 60 years to replace that tree. Bamboo allows you to cut them down and they will return in about 60 days! That’s a huge difference. Not only is bamboo great at growing, but also is quite strong. Some people in the tropics can build houses out of bamboo! There are also over 1000 species of bamboo, each with a distinctive natual beauty. This Pet Diner will be sure you last you along time in your home, but it will be doing the earth a great favor as well.

For the Traveling Family and Cat

Outdoor Heated Kitty Camper

For families that go traveling and camping with their cat, this Outdoor Heated Kitty Camper is perfect to take with you. I’m sure it comes to many minds that nights can be very cold and sometimes a cat’s normal bed may not be enough to stay warm. The Heated Kitty Pad that is inserted into the unit ensures your cat will be sung as a bug in a rug! This bed is not just usable for trips away from home and camping, but also for the cat that loves to be outside. Cats with arthritis would also enjoy this bed as the warmth can sooth sore joints and muscles. Worried about energy? Not to worry! The Heated Kitty pad operates at a low wattage! Good for your pet and your peace of mind.

Miss Sherlock the Cat,
Shares Her Tale

Miss Sherlock with her new Combo Cat Scratcher

Dear Miss Nancy,
 
Thank you for your recent e-mail telling us that our Combo Cat Scratcher is on its way.  Watson and I are looking forward to its arrival.
 
As to your inquiry about my name - “Miss” Sherlock - I must tell you it is a humorous story, as well as a purrfect crime in deception; Sherlock Holmes & John Watson being our inspiration and namesakes. 
 
Our breeder, reputable in most ways, told our owners that I was of the male persuasion.  I felt no need to dispute her assessment as I was perfectly happy playing “like the boys” with my friend Watson.  Although we are not related, Watson and I arrived at kittenhood at roughly the same time.  We are Maine Coon cats - I am a brown classic and Watson is a red classic (And by the way, Watson’s dad was centerfold in last month’s issue of Cat Fancy).

What is Your Cat’s Name?

We noticed an interesting commonality in our customers. Well, not them personally but rather the fact that so many cat names are very distinct! It prompted us to begin to collect cat names, particularly since the cat furniture being ordered, is for some”one” especially important. Instead of Fluffy & Felix, we were seeing names like Milo, Ocashsa, Taisho, Deuce & Bruno. Bruno? Isn’t that a dog’s name. Oh well…. With a name like Bruno, I don’t suppose he really cares!

Well, you know how it is. Every January, we get the “most popular” lists. Recently, the Cincinnati Enquirer published a list of the most popular cat names for 2008. How do these names compare to your clan?

1. Max
2. Chloe
3. Tigger
4. Tiger
5. Lucy
6. Smokey
7. Oliver
8. Bella
9. Shadow
10. Charlie

Other names locally on the list include: Gizmo, Cocoa, Gabriel (too many vowels!), Bailey, Simba & Bob. Bob??? Somehow, I just can’t see a cat named Bob.

The Perfect Cat Christmas Present

KatKabin Outdoor Cat Condo

KatKabin, an innovative product produced in England has been so popular, they decided to introduce a brand new snazzy look and name, called Dez Rez. An interesting name, but I have no clue what it means or where it came from! The KatKabin is an outdoor cat condo which offers great cold-weather protection for cats and small dogs. They been imported into the U.S. for several years, and are always popular once it gets chilly. The previously models were rounder with a iridescent finish available in the Deluxe models. Even though they tend to be more popular in cold environments, the design and technology provides a great ourdoor summer cat hideaway. We anticipate them to arrive from “over the pond” in January.

Designer Granite Cat Feeder

The granite in the main photo is called “Seagrass” with embedded fossils from the ancient sea bottom. Predominately tan, with green specks interspersed throughout. The feet of this feeder are made with two solid legs of the same stone or contrasting stone. Feet have a non-skid pad on bottom to protect floors. Other colors also available.

Bamboo Cat Lounge

The soft, removable micro suede cushion covers are inherently stain resistant and hypoallergenic, as well as, completely recyclable because of their 100% polyester content.

Also, unique to the pet industry, Pet Lounge Studios has incorporated shredded orthopedic memory foam into all of their cushions. “Our shredded foam is recycled from the remnants of human bed mattresses and contours perfectly to your pets’ body,” says designer Corey Drew.
