Happy Cat collars

Pixie et le kit Happy CatHappy Cat is a private action for animal welfare. Stephanie Schneider is a cat friend, and her four cats can go outside. However, she was for a long time against the fact to equip them with collar.

Stephanie wanted a collar which is not too much expensive, which can be seen, which is attractive, and which doesn’t present any danger for her cats. She had one day the idea to cut a strip of Chromolux paper to replace the collar which Sugar had lost again : it was purrfect !

kit Happy CatWe already heard of Happy Cat collars, and when she contacted us, we asked her for a sample to test the product before to tell you about it ; we had the pleasant surprise to receive a complete kit (50 collars, more than 1000 self-adhesive pastes to decorate them, reflecting stickers, 2 indelible pens, and a Scotch tape) !

colors Happy CatMaking a collar is easy : cut the strip at the good length by measuring on the cat, decorate it, and assemble it with the adhesive tape to close it. Life cycle of the collar : approximately two weeks. Price of the kit : 23.60 € + shipping. Zone of delivery: Europe. The site is in German, but videos allow very easily to understand everything.

Is it reliable ? Strips are not easy to tear if we fire in flat smoothly, but as soon as it twists little itself, they give in easily. Strips have a 1 kg resistance. Claire tried to dip them into the water : 10 mn later, the paper softens and tears easily also.

We found that it was a good idea, and we want to share it with you : three among you all will receive a sample consisting of 10 necklaces, 1 indelible pen, a reflecting sticker and 350 strass to past !

World Cat Day with Rosina

WorldCatDay 2015

Thanks to Ann from Zoolatry for the graphic

This year, we decided to celebrate World Cat Day with Rosina.

Rosina Wachtmeister was born on January 7th, 1939 in Vienna. At the age of 14, she leaves for Brazil with her parents. She decides to become a sculptor, attends class in the art school of Porto Alegre between 1955 and 1961, and obtains her sculptor’s diploma. She establishes then a small troop of puppeteers which travels Brazil during 3 years.
Later, she marries the painter Paolo Rissone, and since 1974, she settles down in Italy, in Capena, a small village in the North of Rome.

Rosina creates adorable cats with a characteristic head in moon shape. Claire already has jewels, objects, and reproductions with these cats. She likes this artist very much.

Our ham-micks

We’re spoiled this month ! Having received our fountain, Claire made us the surprise offering us two ham-micks made by our friends of Forty Paws.
Pixie in her ham-mick
They are great ! We love them (this is why we tell you about it moreover) : the structure is made of PVC tubes and the ham-mick is made of fleece. You can also order anti-skid feet separately.

If you go to see on the site, you’ll see that there are several fabrics to chose, all more attractive some than the others.
But what you won’t see is that ham-micks arrive with catnip in the packaging, so that we want to use them at once. Claire didn’t know either, and when she opened the package, there was nip spread everywhere in the kitchen : it was brilliant !
