Chatting Cats: Cat Themed Gift Guide On A Budget

Published on December 7, 2018 by Service Cats U.S.27 Comments

MeOW Brrrrrrrrrr Kittens Has it ever turned cold here. RaenaBelle, you need to learn to share the cuddles. You were hoggin’ all the mommy warmth last night and me nearly froze me’s pantaloons off.

Pantaloons? What pantaloons, sissy? Do you even have pantaloons? Do I’s have pantaloons?

Me’s bloomers, Raena. And yes, you have ‘em too.

Oh, bloomers. Well, why didn’t you just meow that sissy? I’s thought I’s was gonna have to add pantaloons to mine’s list of wants.

List of wants? What list of wants Raena?

Oh you know sissy, the one I’s been makin’ while we’ve been shoppin’ fur our Gift Guide.

Raena, you’re not s’posed to be shoppin’ fur yourself. We’re s’posed to be pickin’ out things that would make a great gift ideas fur others.

I’s was sissy. But mommy says the bestest gift you can get fur somepawdy is the gift you’d want fur yourself.

(Dezi rolls her eyes and shakes her head) Well Raena, meowin’ of shoppin’, we’ve got our Gift Guide to get out today. We wanted to include somethin’ fur everypawdy, but on a budget. After all, who knows more ‘bout stretchin’ a dollar than us?

Ain’t that the truth sissy. What do ya’ say we start with Gifts fur kitty?

Sounds good to me Raena. With innernet shoppin’ in the palm of your hands, choices are only limited by your pawcket book. One of the furst places we go too when lookin’ fur a good deal is ebay. Now, ifin you’ve got time and patience you might wanna try your luck at the bidding wars fur your deal; but, we purrfur the buy it now option. We know fur sure how much we’re payin’ and we don’t have to worry ‘bout someone stealin’ it out from unner us in the last 2 seconds. We like to shop with sellers who have a rating of 95% and up. We also luv free shippin’. Who doesn’t luv somethin’ free, right? So, let’s take a look at some of the pawsum deals you can get on a budget.

Oh the vine is fine…

1. How’s ‘bout a baggie of silvervine? This relative of catnip is much more potent and is well received by even cats who aren’t affected by regular nip. At $3.75 and free shippin’, this would thrill almost any cat on Christmas meownin’.

2. Are you a kitty who luvs a good crinkle ball ($3.99 for 12)?

3. Or maybe you need your very own tunnel ($8.95)? This is 4 feet of fun that can be collapsed down when the peeps have company and need the floor back.

4. Here’s somethin’ we haven’t tried, but think would make a great gift fur the feline who has everything. Your very own lickable catnip treat fur $1.79 and free s/h from Hong Kong. Now this wouldn’t make it here befur Christmas, but hey, we’re cats. We deserve gifts every day, right?

5. Our favorite corrugated Cat Scratcher at $38.99 and free shippin’. We couldn’t pawssibly have a Gift Guide fur kitties without includin’ a great scratcher. At nearly 34” long and 10” high and wide, it’s not only good fur scratchin’, but makes the purrfect loungin’ spot.

Now that kitty’s happy, let’s take a look at some ideas fur the cat men out there. We realize not all cat men wanna flaunt their special luvs fur kitties in the same way as their female counterpawrts. We’re not sure why, but most cat daddies don’t wanna wear a t-shirt announcin’ their cat craziness. But that’s okay, we luvs all the cat daddies out there. That brings us to another place we like to check fur high quality bargain gifts, The LC. At purrices startin’ below $10.00 fur sterling silver, you can get the man in your life some amazin’ jewelry pieces.

6. This leather and stainless steel Lion’s head bracelet fur $9.99 would let you cat daddy’s show off your luvs fur the feline form in a masculine way.

7. Check out this Wrist Watch fur only $6.99 and free shipping.

8. We totally luvs this Yin & Yang 2 pc cat pendant fur him and her. And at only $8.99 with free shippin’ you can knock 2 peeps off your list with one purrchase. And sine it’s made of stainless steel, nopawdy’s gonna turn green. MOL

RaenaBelle, me can’t believe you said that.

What sissy? Mommy said mystery metals are never a good idea fur gifts. They make some peeps rot. Anyways…

9. We found this adorable little cat face dish clearanced at $5.99. Now I’s know what you’re thinkin’, but we think it would make a great little dish on a desk or table fur like keys, paper clips and such. Another way the cat daddies can show their devotion to the feline form without screamin’ it.

10. Now this one could be fur anypawdy, not just the men. Everypawdy needs a calendar, right? Paw on over to cafepress.com to purrsonalize your gift. Prices start at $9.99. They’re even offurin’ free shippin’ right now. And of course there’s lots of other things you can purrsonalize too.

11. Fur the young animal luvver these adorable Paw Print earrings at $9.99 would make a great choice. And feed some hungry shelter cats.

Those earrings would make a great gift fur anypawdy with pierced ears Raena. Our next find is a bit whimsical, but hey, sometimes ya’ need a little whimsy.

12. Ifin you’re lookin’ fur a fun novelty gift to spice up a pawrty or even every day, this kitty ice cube tray just might be the thing at only $5.99.

13. Me purrsonally found this store on ebay. They have lots of great kitty and woofy pendants fur the ladies startin’ at $8.00 with free shippin’.

14. We know many have lost their furry luvs this past year and it’s really tuff, specially on the holidays. Mommy still cries herself to sleep a lot of nights. So, we thought this adorable little pendant at $7.99 was a great memorial gift.

15. This jaguar Key Chain is a must. After all, doesn’t everypawdy have at least one key? And it’s under $7.00 with free shippin’.

So, there you have it…15 gifts on a budget. Now me knows the cat scratcher is a bit costly. But trust me, it’s worth every penny.

It is sissy. And, I’s know we’re hopin’ one finds it way to our house. Even ifin you hadn’t hurled all over ours, we’ve purretty much scratched it to death, on all sides. Altho’ I’s still think some of the bestest gifts don’t cost a thing. I’s know fur a fact that mommy’s never been happier than when I’s gave her a few slow blinks and purrs.

You’re right Raena. Even budget items are ‘spensive when you don’t have any green papers. And it’s fur that very reason, that we always, always include our thoughts on the purrfect purriceless gifts. A hug and a kiss and a me luvs you can’t be beat. A flower from the garden can make any mother smile.

I’s heard it could even be a weed ifin it’s given with luvs sissy.

That’s true Raena. Anyways, we hope we’ve helped you find some last minute gifts guaranteed to arrive by Christmas. More ‘purrtantly, we wanna fank you all fur your luv. You’ve given us the greatest gift anyone can give. We luv and cherish each and every one of you. And it’s our purrayer that you receive all you need and all you want today and every day.

That’s fur sure sissy. We’re also linkin’ up with Comedy Plus fur Feline Furiday.

And don’t furget to join the Blessing Train.

Till the next time……………………………………………….Be Blest!!!

Chatting Cats: A Meowsy Feline Friday

Published on November 23, 2018 by Service Cats U.S.35 Comments

Dezi: MeOW Hey Raena, did you enjoy that turkey tom lurkey last night? Me sure did. Me even stole a bite of mommy’s hawaiian roll. It was so tasty.

Raena: Oh sissy, I’s luvs, luvs, luvved mine’s turkey tom lurkey. And I’s stole the whole roll when mommy zoned out. I’s hate that she doesn’t feel good, but I’s just couldn’t pass up more of that tasty fanky Fanksgivin’ dinner. I’s sure hope mommy gets better soon.

Dezi: Me too Raena. Whatever she’s got sure came on fast. She said she felt fine yesfuday meownin’, but by the early afternoon she couldn’t even function. She had a really bad migraine and her throat was sore and she was runnin’ a fever and had the chills. (Dezi whispers to Raena) Me even thinks she might’ve peed her pants a time or two. But don’t tell anypawdy, she would be so embarrassed. When she furinally came ‘round and saw her empty plate, fanks to you, she just assumed she’d already had dinner and put the leftover turkey in the fridge. So, we had to lissen to her tummy growl all night long.

That was mommy’s tummy? I’s just thought you were in a bad mood sissy. I’s don’t think I’s got mine’s full sleep, I’s so tired today.

A bad mood? Why would me be in a bad mood? Me’s gotchaday fell on Fanksgivin’ and me got real turkey tom lurkey as a treat. And even tho’ mommy wasn’t feelin’ good, she gave me lots of extra luvvin’ and cuddles. Me’s day couldn’t have been more purrfect. Well, a stroll might have been the cream on top. But, me knew mommy wasn’t up to it, so me didn’t even ask.

A stroll would’a been great sissy, but that was very thoughtful of you to consider how mommy was feelin’. Maybe we can go fur strolls when she’s all better.

Me hopes so Raena. Do you realize Christmas is only a month away? Me can’t wait to go out lookin’ at Christmas lights.

And I’s can‘t wait fur our annual trip to the old folks home sissy. I’s had so much fun last year. The peeps luvved me. Oh Christmas, I’s can’t wait fur you to get here.

Me neither Raena. Let’s go check out the map and find the bestest houses to see where we wanna go.

Okay sissy, I’s just gonna link us up to Comedy Plus fur Feline Furiday right quick.

While you do that, me will just have a quick bath.

And me must tell you all, we’re tryin’ to get caught up with our visits, but mommy is really sick. Purrlease bear with us and have a Blest weekend.

Till the next time…………………………………………………..Be Blest!!!

Chatting Cats: More Plans Ahead

Published on November 16, 2018 by Service Cats U.S.20 Comments

MeOW RaenaBelle, you really did a great job with me’s carnival pawrty. Me wasn’t sure at furst, but you really do have some good ideas after all. The ice cream truck was a great hit. And everypawdy looked so pawsum in their masks. Me knows you worked really hard purrin’ it all together. ‘Specially since our innernets went out and you had to do it all over the weekend. (Dezi walks over to Raena and head bumps her) Fanks, me will plan you a great pawrty next year.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw Fanky fanks sissy. I’s glad you had a good time and liked your pawrty. It was a lotta work and put us way behind in visitin’ our furiends, but ifin you’re happy, it was worth it. Meowin’ of visitin’ our furiends, we’re slowly but surely gettin’ caught up. However, our comments seem to disappear on some of your bloggy’s includin’ the wordpress ones. Now that might be cuz you’re monitorin’ ‘em, but ifin you’re not and don’t see a comment from us in the next few days, purrlease let us know, so we can try to figger out what’s happenin’. You might wanna check your spam folder furst tho’, we have ended up there in the past.

Yeah Raena, me hates it when we get behind. Fankfully most of our furiends unnerstand. On another note, me’s joinin’ the choir at cat scouts, so mommy’s tryin’ to help me record me’s audition track. And me told her she owed our furiends her rendition of Amazing Grace and at least a couple of country songs that they asked fur last year. Now that she has teeth again, she can form words and sing. So it’s gonna be a little busy ‘round here fur the next couple of weeks.

I’s just luvs it when mommy sings sissy. ‘Specially when she sings ‘bout us. She makes up the bestest songs ever.

Me likes it too Raena. But sometimes, the songs she makes up could use a little work. Ya’ know like when she sings, Dezi, sweet as apple pie? Like, is apple pie even sweet? We don’t even like apples.

Yeah well, ya’ might have a point there sissy. I’s not sure ‘bout bein’ her punkin’ pie either; but I’s do luvs it when she says we’re purrfect and her purrecious baby girls.

Me kind’a likes those pawrts too Raena. We really are Blest. Ya’ know, the holidays are here and peeps are startin’ to get really busy.

Sure ‘nuff sissy. I’s had mine’s thinkin’ cap on lately and I’s thinkin’ we should post a gift guide with our top picks. Mommy even received this cool new notebook fur furee, to keep track of all our plans and picks. And, ifin you’re like mommy and still like to use paper notebooks, we think you’d luvs it or one like it. Ya’ oughtta check out TeePublic, they’ve got some really cool things that would make great gifts.

Me thinks that’s a great idea Raena. Guess we better get to work on that befur Christmas sneaks up on us.

We thought this foto was kind’a cool the way I’s almost black and white

x’cept fur the outside. Mommy can’t see black and white fotos very

good, so we ‘pawlogize ifin it’s blurry.

I’s ready sissy. Just let me link us up with Comedy Plus fur Feline Furidays right quick and we can start shoppin’ together.

Sure Raena, me will have a little bath while me waits.

Till the next time………………………………………………….Be Blest!!!

Chatting Cats: Feline Friday Plans

Published on November 9, 2018 by Service Cats U.S.19 Comments

MeOW WooHoo It’s furinally Furiday!!! And let me tell ya’, it’s cold and yucky and gray outside. There’s like a bazillion dead leaves all over the place. Everytime mommy opens the door they try to get inside. Ya’ know, some places have these really purretty leaves, but not us. Nope, our leaves are all one color…dead. That reminds me, in case you missed our announcement, Service Cat Furidays will return in the new year. We’re just takin’ a little break. What with the holidays comin’ and all, we thought mommy’s brain could use a little rest. After all, she is the one that has to do all the research and stuffs fur our Service Cat postys. In the meantime, you can always ketch up on any posts from our series by clickin’ the links on our Training Tips and Everything Feline page. And you can always send us your questions via our Contact page.

Wha’ch’a doin’ sissy?

Nuffin’ Raena. Me was just remindin’ peeps that our educational Furidays will be back. Ya’ know, lots of peeps come here on Furidays that don’t come by the rest of the week. Me just wanted to remind ‘em that things would be back to normal after the holidays. Me’s favorite holidays are Fanksgivin’ and Christmas; and they’ll both be here befur ya’ know it.

Mine’s eyes are doin’ really good as you can see.

I’s can’t wait fur Christmas sissy. But furst, we’ve got your birthday/gotchaday pawrty next week. Me and mommy are gonna be workin’ all weekend to put the final touches together. Since we spent so long without the innernet we didn’t get to it earlier.

Me’s gettin’ really x’cited Raena. Me can’t wait to see what you have planned. Me sure hopes it’s better than your business plans. Come to think of it, you haven’t had one of those in a while. What’s up?

Well sissy, it’s not fur the lack of thinkin’, but t’ween plannin’ your pawrty and mine’s surgery, I’s just haven’t had the time to put anythin’ together to purrpose.

Me thought fur sure you’d have somethin’ planned befur the holidays Raena. We need to do somethin’ so we can get each other and mommy a purresent.

Actually sissy, I’s just thought we could go with some of those Purrs With A Purr-Puss. You know how much mommy luvs a good purr. And fanky fankfully, we don’t need any green papers to buy ‘em. I’s been checkin’ the ads and even ifin we started a business now we wouldn’t be able to raise enuff to buy anythin’. Y, I’s couldn’t believe the store’s chargin’ almost $3.00 a pound fur a turkey tom lurkey. I’s didn’t even check to see what they were chargin’ fur hams. ‘Specially since the crazy peeps ‘round here just approved another couple of tax increases. (Raena shakes her head) I’s just don’t get it?. We already have the highest taxes of anypawdy at 10 purrcent and now they wanna go and add another 3/4’s cent to it.

Well then, Purrs With A Purr-Puss it is Raena. Maybe we can think of somethin’ else to go with it t’ween now and then. Me doesn’t know where these peeps get the money fur all these taxes. Anyways, as mommy always says, Ya’ can’t miss what ya’ don’t have.

True sissy, mommy says that a lot. So, ya’ wanna go play? I’s have a little time befur I’s need to get back to mine’s plannin’.

Sure Raena, me will play fur a bit. But, when me meows enuff, that’s it. Okay? Let me just link up with Comedy Plus fur Feline Furidays right quick and me will be right behind ya’. Don’t furget to send in your pawrty fotos to be included in the pawrty post and contest. Me hears Raena’s plannin’ a big surpurrise fur the winner.

Till the next time……………………………………………………Be Blest!!!

MeOW Brrrrrrrrrr Kittens Has it ever turned cold here. RaenaBelle, you need to learn to share the cuddles. You were hoggin’ all the mommy warmth last night and me nearly froze me’s pantaloons off.

Pantaloons? What pantaloons, sissy? Do you even have pantaloons? Do I’s have pantaloons?

Me’s bloomers, Raena. And yes, you have ‘em too.

Oh, bloomers. Well, why didn’t you just meow that sissy? I’s thought I’s was gonna have to add pantaloons to mine’s list of wants.

List of wants? What list of wants Raena?

Oh you know sissy, the one I’s been makin’ while we’ve been shoppin’ fur our Gift Guide.

Raena, you’re not s’posed to be shoppin’ fur yourself. We’re s’posed to be pickin’ out things that would make a great gift ideas fur others.

I’s was sissy. But mommy says the bestest gift you can get fur somepawdy is the gift you’d want fur yourself.

(Dezi rolls her eyes and shakes her head) Well Raena, meowin’ of shoppin’, we’ve got our Gift Guide to get out today. We wanted to include somethin’ fur everypawdy, but on a budget. After all, who knows more ‘bout stretchin’ a dollar than us?

12. Ifin you’re lookin’ fur a fun novelty gift to spice up a pawrty or even every day, this kitty ice cube tray just might be the thing at only $5.99.

13. Me purrsonally found this store on ebay. They have lots of great kitty and woofy pendants fur the ladies startin’ at $8.00 with free shippin’.

14. We know many have lost their furry luvs this past year and it’s really tuff, specially on the holidays. Mommy still cries herself to sleep a lot of nights. So, we thought this adorable little pendant at $7.99 was a great memorial gift.

15. This jaguar Key Chain is a must. After all, doesn’t everypawdy have at least one key? And it’s under $7.00 with free shippin’.

So, there you have it…15 gifts on a budget. Now me knows the cat scratcher is a bit costly. But trust me, it’s worth every penny.
