Holiday Shopping: Pets

Remembering Ruby: For Families Living Beyond the Loss of a Pet
By Melisa Wells

Remembering Ruby is a wonderful book for anyone who's recently suffered or is about to suffer the loss of a pet. It's written by the lovely Melisa Wells of Suburban Scrawl.



Daisy's Pet Supplies

Daisy's Pet Supplies is an online pet supply store that sells dog toys, beds, leashes, collars—you name it! If Beverly weren't such a freeloader and actually had some money, she'd shop there in a heartbeat.


Vicktory Dog Wine

Okay, the makers of Vicktory Dogs Wine don't exactly read this blog (or maybe they do!), but a few people sent me this link and I had to include it in my gift guide.

So, remember the dogs rescued from Michael Vick's dog-fighting ring? Well, the dogs now live at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary, the largest no-kill, no-cage animal rescue sanctuary in the U.S. An artist began painting portraits of these dogs, and a vineyard in California put the portraits on bottles of wine and is giving 100% of the proceeds back to Best Friends. The wine is available by the bottle or the case and would make a great gift for any animal lover.



World Animal Foundation: Adopt An Animal

WAF's Adopt An Animal symbolic adoption helps preserve the planet and protect its animals. It makes a great gift and comes with a kit that includes the following:

  • Photo of Your Adopted Animal
  • Adopt An Animal Adoption Certificate
  • Fact Sheet About Your Adopted Animal
  • Help Animals Info Packet Packed With Information On Animal Issues & How You Can Help Animals And The Environment
Each kit can be sent directly to the recipient at a date of your choosing and will include a letter stating the Adopt A Cow is from you.

Karyn, you are a total DOLL for putting that up. Many hugs to you! I hope you have a fab Thanksgiving. (& next time you're back in the Chi, you'd better let me and my sis--House of Jules--know! :) )

xoxo

I ordered some Vicktory wine! I think that's a great gift. Who doesn't love wine and puppies? :)

Shelters across the country have taken-in more cats and dogs because of foreclosures while receiving less donations this year. Help them out by doing some of your holiday shopping online at their websites. Proceeds help
abandoned pets.
