Holiday Gift Guide for Pets 2018 Edition

November 20, 2018 by Ashley Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored post and these opinions and gift suggestions are all my own.

FurZapper

The FurZapper is a great gift to stick in your pets stocking this year. (That is if you are crazy like me and have stockings for your fur babies.) The FurZapper might not actually be a gift for your pet’s, but it is a must have item if you have pets in your home. The FurZapper goes in your washer and dryer with your clothes to help remove all of that unwanted pet hair from your clothes. The 2-Pack is ideal for a home with two pets. You place them in the wash with your clothes and they work their magic to help remove pet hair from your clothes so that you don’t need to wash and dry your clothes multiple times. It also helps you to use less lint rollers straight from the dryer.

 

Diggs Revol dog crate

If you have a small dog or cats in your home that need crates you will want to consider the Diggs Revol dog crate as a gift option for your pets this year. This pet crate is durable, folds up, and features multiple access points for getting your pet in and out of the crate. Right now only the small crate is available and it is recommended for pets up to 30lbs in size. This crate is designed in such a way that pets shouldn’t get harmed while using it. Many of the metal cages have spots where your pets can get paws, or their heads stuck and could potentially get injured by their crates. It boasts a more modern design so that it fits in your home without sticking out like a sore thumb.

Diggs Snooz dog bed

If you decide to get the dog crate (or don’t and still want to spoil your pets) you should seriously consider the Diggs Snooz dog bed. This bed is designed to fit perfectly inside the dog crate. It is made of memory foam for comfort and is made from top-quality, environmentally sustainable and safe materials. I personally love the fact that it is quite durable and comes with a removable cover that is machine washable. This is always important when pets are involved. No matter how clean we try to keep them they still get dirty and get their beds dirty. Even if you don’t get the crate this bed would make for a great gift for your pets this holiday. It is the perfect size for a small dog or a cat or two.

Teddy The Dog Christmas Stocking

As I said above I love having stockings for all of the pets in my life so I couldn’t pass up the Teddy The Dog Christmas Stocking. We got one for our family dog Luna. She hasn’t had her own personalized stocking before so I am excited to have one with her name on it. The stocking is crazy cute and will be a great addition to our Christmas traditions. I will say that this stocking is made to be durable and will last unlike many you will find at pet stores that seem to only last one year before it is falling apart. You can get one online and still get it in time for Christmas.

My Cats are “Healthy Pet Happy Pet” #HealthyPetHappyPet

May 10, 2016 by Ashley Leave a Comment

Up until recently my pets have been my life and were my only children that I loved and cared for; that changed two months ago with the birth of my son though it has not changed how much I love and care for their little furry faces.  Due to my mothering instincts I have been changing up all of their diets because I feel that I need to make sure that I have a healthy pet which will then create a happy pet.  This means I have been seeking out healthy cat food that isn’t made cheaply and is not full of fillers that they don’t need.  My hopes is that my kitten will grow up strong and healthy and that we can get our older cat to lose a couple of pounds because he is slightly over weight.

I am thankful to say that this post is sponsored by CANIDAE® Pet Food and the BlogPaws® Pet Influencer NetworkTM. I am being compensated to help create awareness about the GrainFree PURE® line of pet food but we only share information we feel is relevant to our readers. CANIDAE® is not responsible for the content of this article.  It is because I am working with CANIDAE® that I am able to feed my premium fresh cat food that is grain-free and high in protein just like a cat would eat in the wild.  I could tell from the moment that I brought the CANIDAE® Grain Free PURE food into the home that it was going to be a huge hit with our cats.

My #HealthyPetHappyPet

CANIDAE cat food Healthy pet

Whenever we bring home a new bag of cat food the cats swarm the bag, but with this food they not only swarmed the bag, but begged me to open it by rubbing against my legs as well as talking to me with their sweet little meows that always make my heart melt.  It was very exciting to see the change in their attitude.  I believe that they were able to tell that this would taste so much better than their old cat food.  There were many reasons that I was excited to give my cats this food, but here are the reasons that really forced a change in the way we are feeding our cats:

  • Grain-Free
  • No Chicken by-product meal
  • 7-10 key ingredients
  • Probiotics added to kibble after cooking.

Out of these reasons the last one is the one that really sold me.  I have recently realized how important probiotics are.  At the end of my pregnancy I began taking probiotics and my newborn son also takes them because they really help with our digestion.  I can only imagine that they will help our cats out just as much as it has been helping us out these past few months.  I also love that CANIDAE is an independent family-owned business that has been around since 1996.  This makes me feel like they care about their product as well as the animals that they make their food for.  Their tagline even accentuates this point:

Pet Food Made By Pet People™

HealthyPetHappyPet

If you think you can’t afford a cat food like this you might be wrong; you can find coupons for their pet food online.  Don’t step away because of a dollar amount just yet.  Remember that you want a healthy pet just as much as I do and I have managed to find a way to buy this food for my kitties on a fixed income with a newborn baby boy.  If I can do it so can you.  It sometimes means that you have to go through your budget and get rid of some non-essential expenses, but that is okay because family should come first and your pets are just as much family as are your children.  I would also recommend that you follow CANIDAE on social media to keep up on their products as well as any deals that might occur.

Before I leave you I want to share CANIDAE’s True Story video with you.  In this video you will learn just a little more about the brand that I believe will sell you on their product.  If that is the case then you will be wanting to head over to their store locator so that you can find a store near you that sells their products for your pets.

Is your pet a Healthy Pet, Happy Pet?

With my life being so completely crazy right now and rather stressful I decided to take a mini-trip downstate to visit my friend last weekend.  I had a great time and got to play with his two little fur babies!  Here is my evidence of the two lovey dovey kitty cats!

Catsby Spotlight: Slurp 'N Fresh Pet Breath Freshener

August 30, 2012 by Ashley Leave a Comment

envirofreshSlurp ‘N Fresh Pet Oral Hygiene- Breath Freshener I knew I had to try.  Between my dog and two cats I get plenty of stinky breath in my face. From the dog panting close to my face to wake me up to my cat napping in my lap and yawning in my face made it so I knew just how stinky their breath really is! Or should I say used to be stinky!!!

I was a little nervous about this because I have tried breath sprays and treats to help with their breath, but none of those worked.  When I got my bottles in the mail the first thing I did was read the directions.  It said on the bottle that it is one cap full of solution well shaken to 24 ounces of water.

I did what it said and poured in the cap-full for every 24 ounces of water.  Then I just watched and waited to see the difference.  The bottle also said to wait for two days before really seeing results.  I was able to see results on day two with both my dog and my one cat.  I haven’t been able to get as close to my other cat to know if it worked for him too, but I am pretty sure that it is working for him as well.

enviro freshThis is a product that really helps with their breath.  The stinky smell you normally smell in a cats mouth or a dogs mouth is neutralized with this product.  I am very glad that I was allowed to review this on my blog as well as sponsor a giveaway prize for The Great Catsby Event!!!

I want to also add that I was a little worried about it upsetting my animals stomachs since I was adding something new to their diet but they all handled it well and do not seem to notice a difference in their water, but I am very glad that it is working because now there is no stinky breath left in the house!!
