Chatting Cats: Mommy’s Got A New Tee: #GiveAway

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Can you believe it? I’s getting’ to take the lead today. And guess what? We have a pawtastic give away fur all of ya’. Dat’s right, everypawdy can enter. Anyways, let’s get to the good pawrt. We were contacted by the sweetest gentleman, Aaron Seminoff, ‘bout checkin’ out his website full of animal related purroducts fur our humans. Let me tell ya’, mommy was some kind’a x’cited when she saw all the amazin’ kitty tee shirts.

          She sure was Raena. Mommy doesn’t wear a lot of tee shirts, but when she does, they’ve gotta be kitty related.

Yep, sissy, mommy’s a real live Cat Lady. She couldn’t believe how many different kitty designs Animal Hearted has. And not only were the designs pawsum, they also offur several different types of tee shirts and even sweatshirts. Mommy likes her shirts a bit oversized and roomy, so she was thrilled to see the larger sizes offured.

This is great mommy. That’s me!!!

 

          Mommy was really impurressed when she saw the purrsonalization option. That meant she could get a shirt with one of us on it. So, even when she does go somewhere without us, she could still show us off.

 

 

And she did just that sissy. When mommy went to her dental surgery ‘pointment, she wore the purrsonalized tee Animal Hearted made fur her. She said it brought her some comfurt to be able to look down and see mine’s purretty face. She also said almost everypawdy complimented her special tee shirt. I’s think it’s cuz they thought I’s sooooooo purrrrrrrr-ty. Don’t you think so sissy?

Unisex Personalized Tee Shirt

 

          Uh, yeah, sure Raena. That’s x’actly why they complemented her. (Dezi shakes her head and mumbles under her breath) That girl is so conceited. 

 

Mommy even got a couple of key chains. Mommy does luv her key chains and baubles. And she said the Animal Hearted web site was really easy to navigate; and the ordering purrocess was so simple anypawdy could do it.

Those key chains say, Stop Stressing Meowt!

 

          Yep Raena, and even tho’ mommy’s not all that great with catputer maneuverin’, she said makin’ her purrsonalized tee shirt was a breeze. The Animal Hearted website took her step by step thru the process and let her back up ifin she made a mistake. She even got to preview her choice befur orderin’.

 

 Animal Hearted Key Chain

This pawsum key chain says, Crazy Cat Lady. It suits mommy

to a tee. MOL  Get it? A tee? MOL

 

Sure ‘nuff sissy. And after she placed her order, she got an email almost instantly requestin’ the foto she wanted on her purrsonalized shirt. Initially, the instructions on what kind of foto was allowed, wasn’t real clear. Mommy submitted a collage foto with both of us. The folks from Animal Hearted respawnded very quickly and told mommy that the best foto to submit would be a fairly plain foto of just one of us. So mommy sent in a foto of me layin’ in the wheelchair. In no time at all, she received another email with the purrposed final design.

 

 First draft personalized tee shirt from Animal Hearted

This was the furst tee Animal Hearted submitted to mommy

fur approval. She didn’t care fur the greens, so they went back

to the drawin’ board. 

 

          Mommy didn’t like it. She thought the green washed you out. And she didn’t think the green looked all that great on the gray background either. Not to mention her dislike of pastel greens. At this point mommy got a little nervous. She was worried that when she said she didn’t like it, that they might get a little snippy with her. But mommy went ahead and sent an email tellin’ them she didn’t care for the green and suggested our signature purrple, or blues to match our eyes; just no green. And then she got a purrleasant sur-purrise. The Animal Hearted team quickly and nicely respawnded and sent an email with another design.

Here’s the second and final tee shirt. It’s purrfect!!!

 

And it was purrfect, wasn’t it sissy?

 

          Yeah Raena, mommy luvved the second design and told them to go ahead. The whole purrocess was easy peasy, and the folks at Animal Hearted were as nice as could be thru it all.

 

 Animal Hearted Kisses Not Hisses tee shirt

Aaaaaaaw Isn’t that just purrecious?

 

A few days later, mommy got her purrsonalized tee, key chains, and cutesy tee in the mail. She couldn’t wait to wear ‘em. They’re a light weight cotton and wash up great. 

 

 Aaron Seminoff with his 2 rescue dogs

 

          The other thing we really luv ‘bout Animal Hearted, is their mission. Animal Hearted donates 25% of their purroceeds to non-purrofit animal shelters and rescues. That’s right, a whole 25%. And even tho’ Aaron is pictured with his two rescued doggies, he’s also a cat man. Yep, he’s owned by two rescue kitties too.

 

Now fur the good pawrt. Aaron agreed to let us give one of our amazin’ readers a $50.00 gift card. You can buy anythin’ ya’ want from his website. Altho’ we’re all ‘bout the kitties, Animal Hearted has a variety of animals represented. Just click on the Enter Here graffic below to enter this pawsum give away, just in time fur Mother’s Day. The lawn crew’s here, so I’s gonna wrap it up now and take a nap. Wait fur me sissy.

Blest Sunday: Hidden Blessings

MeeeeeOW Welcome to a brand mew Blest Sunday. Ya’ll know how much we luv our Blest Sunday’s, and this week is no different. You know, sometimes the blessings are in your face and ya’ can’t miss ‘em. And sometimes, ya’ have to look a little harder fur them; but either way, they’re always there. As most of ya’ know, sis Raena’s furst birthday was last Furiday, and she got lots of gifts, that she’s sharin’ with me by the way; and we had a great pawrty. But the fun didn’t stop there. As ya’ll saw in our last posty, the gifts kept comin’.

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

          They sure did sissy. I’s luvs birthdays. And I’s luvs, luvs, luvs our furiends.

 

 Dezi sits on the chair arm and poses

 

Me does too Raena. And we’ve still got a birthday pizza comin’. Me really purreciates you waitin’ fur the weather to clear up so me can enjoy it too. 

 

          No purroblem sissy. It wouldn’t be the same ifin you wasn’t out to enjoy it too. Awnty Anonymous even sent enuff green papers fur mommy to get somethin’ to celebrate with us.

 

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Well Raena, speakin’ of awnty Anonymous, we wanna say a meowsy big fank you again, cuz she sent mommy some more noms this past week. Mommy had actually spoke with her on the fone and knew these things were comin’, she just didn’t know when. So when the furst box arrived, mommy was taken by sur-purrise and as usual, she had a long fankful cry. 

 

          Those gifts and mommy’s noms would be the in your face blessings you were meowin’ ‘bout, right sissy? 

 

That’s right Raena. But, we’ve also had some of those not so in your face blessings this past week. 

 

 Raena lays on the Liberty cat tree

 

          Do tell sissy. I’s not know how you’re seein’ all these blessings while hidin’ out UTB (under the bed).

 

 Dezi sits on the chair arm and looks out

 

Me told you, me’s not hidin’ Raena, me’s bein’ safe. And me wasn’t UTB the whole time. Me was drivin’ mommy to the bathroom every meownin’. And me came out to eat and play a few games and even nap a few times…till the thunder boomers started. Me was even doin’ really good this meownin’ till you jumped into the door tryin’ to get that birdy. 

 

 Raena carries a Christmas toy from Cat and Lisa

 

          Well, who knew the door wasn’t gonna open. That birdy’s lucky I’s couldn’t get to it. Hoverin’ at our door tauntin’ me like that, it deserved whatever it was gonna get. 

 

 Dezi bathes in front of the fireplace

 

Yeah, Uh Huh, Sure. (Dezi licks her fur) Raena, the mighty huntress. Like you would’a even known what to do with that birdy ifin you could’a got to it.

 

          Are you doubtin’ mine’s exceptional huntin’ skills sissy? Cuz you know mommy says I’s the greatest huntress in the house.

 

Mommy says a lot of things Raena. Ya’ notice she said in the house, and not somethin’ like, in the universe?. 

 

Raena lays on the back of the chair while Dezi looks up at her from the seat of the chair

 

 

 

 

          I’s don’t know what you’re meowin’ ‘bout sissy. Mommy doesn’t lie. So all I’s know, is that I’s the Great Huntress. Now, let’s get back to those hidden blessings you were meowin’ ‘bout a minute ago. 

 

 Dezi sits on scratcher

 

Yeah, we better do that befur me says somethin’…

Anyways, as most of our furiends know, mommy had some complications from her recent oral surgery. After havin’ a loose stitch removed at her 2 week recheck, a hole opened inside mommy’s mouth up into her sinuses. Not only was it gross, aggravating and painful, it was also dangerous and could’a required a second surgery to close that hole. We asked our furiends to join us in purrayin’ that the hole would safely close on it’s own and that mommy would be okay. And guess what? The last couple of days have been pawsum. Ain’t nuffin’ comin’ outta mommy’s nose that isn’t s’posed too. She can brush her teeth, swish, gargle, eat and drink without worryin’ ‘bout it comin’ out her nose again. What a blessin’ that is. Mommy’s gonna have to check with the surgeon to see when she can purrceed with the rest of the work she needs done. And hopefully, we’ll have enuff green papers to finish all the work so mommy will feel all better.

 

          Ifin mommy gets all better sissy, will she not need us to be Service Cats anymore? 

 

No, Raena. Mommy will still need us to be Service Cats. The work we do doesn’t have anythin’ to do with mommy’s teeth purroblems. She’s always gonna need us Raena, don’t worry.

 

          Fanky fanks sissy. I’s luvs mine’s life, mommy and you. I’s wouldn’t wanna live anywhere else. 

 

 Purple dandelion

 

You don’t ever have to worry ‘bout that Raena. When mommy told you it was furever, she meant it. Mommy also said it was a blessin’ to watch you experience all the fursts this year. Mommy said, at her age, she’s furgotten a lot of the wonders in life and nature. But watchin’ you get x’cited by the wind, or seein’ your furst birdy up close, or you tryin’ to smell the dandelion befur the wind blows it’s seed petals away remind her how purrecious and fragile this life is.

 

 Purple wind cloud

 

          Did you see that wind sissy? It’s whoopin’ those trees ‘round like they ain’t even there. I’s didn’t think those ole branches could move like that. Mommy called it the dance of Spring.

 

Cat blowing kisses emoji

3 cats meowing thank you

Ya’ can’t actually see wind Raena. But me did see those branches dancin’ ‘round out there. Me can hear ‘em scrapin’ the roof too. Me just hopes they all stay on the trees and don’t break off and break anythin’. The point is, blessings are all ‘round us, we just have to take a minute and see ‘em. As we do every week, we’d like to remind everypawdy to take a moment today and every day to give Thanks fur the blessings in your lives. And we wanna fank you all fur bein’ our furiends and sharin’ your lives with us. 

 

          Don’t furget ‘bout the Sunday Selfies with the Kitties Blue sissy. I’s gotta go back to the door and watch fur that birdy to come back. 

 

See ifin you can find a sun puddle too Raena.

Chatting Cats: Still Storming and Thank Yous

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me RaenaBelle. Was mine’s birthday pawrty amazin’ or what? I’s could do that every day. I’s sure do wanna fanky fank all our furiends fur comin’. The pawrty wouldn’t have been any fun without ya’.

 

 Raena sits in a box that had birthday gifts from the Tomcat family

          Raena, me told you birthdays only happen once a year. You’re gonna have to wait till next year to have another birthday pawrty.

 

Is that a long time sissy? That seems like a long time. Will it still be stormin’ and rainy? Cuz I’s would like the sun shine on mine’s birthday.

 

          It’s not that long Raena. As fur the storms and sun shine, nopawdy can know that fur sure. Y, The weather guessers said earlier this week that the sun was gonna reign supreme all week. But just take a look outside and tell me ifin you see any sun puddles?.

 

 Dezi and Raena sit on the Liberty cat tree and look outside

Enjoy Raena, mommy says da sun’s leavin’ as quick as it got here.

 

I’s don’t see sun puddles sissy, but I’s do see that momma birdy that made her nest in mommy’s old flower pot basket. She’s been busy. Did you hear her callin’ the lawn crew names yesfurday? And mommy thought she was vishus the day she attacked her. Hmmmpht  I’s think she actually pooped on one of those lawn men. She was swoopin’ down and cacklin’ louder than ther machines. It was a sight to see.

 

 Baby birds in nest

 

          No, me didn’t see all that Raena, but me’s glad you enjoyed the show. Mommy said the babies are gettin’ bigger and have lots of feathers now. Me’s gotta tell ya’, they sure are the quietest babies me’s ever seen. We’ve never actually heard them peepin’ fur food. They really must have a good mommy.

 

 Baby birds in nest

 

Yeah sissy, mommy says every time she’s gone out there, they’re quiet as can be. The only one doin’ any squawking’ is the mommy bird. I’s can’t wait till they start learnin’ to fly. Ya’ reckon mommy’ll let us go out and play with ‘em?

 

          That ain’t happenin’ Raena. You know mommy’s a bit of a germ-a-fobe, and those birdies purrobably have mites and who knows what else. (Dezi shudders

 

Mites?!! I’s sure don’t want any birdy cooties sissy. Guess it’s a good thing mommy knows those kinds of things, so we don’t get into any trouble. Maybe, our Trout Towne furiends are on to somethin’ not likin’ birds. Our delishus freeze dried chicky breasts don’t have any mites, do they sissy?

 

          Nah Raena, by the time they get put into bags and shipped to our house, any mites and cooties they might have had have been all cleaned up. Speakin’ of freeze dried chicky breasts…

 

 Raena checks out her 1st birthday gift from the Tomacat family

 

Oh sissy, you were ‘bout to mention mine’s birthday purresents weren’t ya’? Fanky fank you uncle Pete, Timmy, Einstein, Fitz, Toby, Rumpy, Buddy Budd and Buttons. I’s luvs, luvs, luvs mine’s birthday purresents. And yes, I’s sharin’ with sissy. Those topper bottles are filled to overflowin’ with freeze dried chicky breasts and bonito flakes. They’re sooooooo delishus. And that sardine tin is great. Yeowww makes some of the bestest nip toys ever. Ya’ll didn’t have to get me anythin’, but I’s sure do ‘purreciate it. I’s such a blest kitty girl.

 

 Dezi, sniffs Raena's birthday gifts from the Tomcat family

 

          You’re also a spoiled kitty girl. 

 

 Raena tries to open the Yeowww sardine tin from the Tocat family

 

Oh sissy, mommy says that’s like the pot callin’ the tea kettle somethin’. Mommy says you’re purrlenty spoiled too.

 

          Of course me is. And me’s purroud of it. MOL  Me knows me has a great life, and pawsum furiends. Let’s go finish brekky befur the storms start up again, Raena.

Okay sissy. I’s gonna link up with the Pet Parade furst and I’s’ll join ya’ in a minute. Don’t eat all mine’s toppers. 

 

 

 Happy Birthday to angel Lexi in a heavenly frame with wings

 

          Tomorrow would have been sis Lexi’s 18th birthday. Mommy’s been a little sad this week and really missin’ her. So we need to give mommy some extra luvvin and cuddles. 

 

Raena lays in mommy's lap

I’s all over that sissy. I’s luvs givin’ mommy luvs and cuddles. I’s just wish the weather would purrk up so we could go fur a stroll. That would fur sure make mommy feel better. We hope all our furiends have a pawsum weekend. Join us next week fur an amazin’ give away and another great Service Cat Monday posty.

Solid Gold SeaMeal™ #ChewyInfluencer

Hey Raena, is that nip in your noms? 

 

 Dezi watching Raena while they eat

 

          Nip? Where’s the nip? I’s don’t smell any nip.

 

In your noms, silly. That green stuff, there, in your food.

 

 

 Solid Gold SeaMeal dry

 

          Oh, that. No sissy, that’s not nip. It’s Solid Gold SeaMeal. You know, us anipals are eatin’ better and better all the time. Our pawrents are gettin’ more label savvy and tryin’ more and more natural purroducts to keep us healthy. And when that happens, supplements start showin’ up as regualr additions to meal time. Fankfully, as Chewy Influencers, we get the oppurrtunity to try a lot of these supplements and foods. And this month, mommy thought we should try the Solid Gold SeaMeal. You tried it earlier in the month, but…well, let’s look at what exactly this is befur we get to the taste testin’.

 

 Chewy Logo

Disclaimer: We received the Solid Gold SeaMeal in exchange for our honest opinion. Neither Chewy nor Solid Gold are responsible for the opinions expressed in this post unless otherwise stated. As always, we tell only the truth as we see it. And we only bring products we use or have tried and think would be of interest to you, our readers and friends.

  

          The Solid Gold SeaMeal is a nutritional supplement that says it supports the overall wellness for cats and dogs. Let’s look at the ingredient list:   

Ingredients

  1. Dried Seaweed Meal, Flaxseed, Dried Aspergillus Oryzae Fermentation Product,Dried Trichoderma Reesei Fermentation Solubles, Dried Rhizopus Oryzae Fermentation Product, Dried Pineapple, Dried Lemon Peel, Lactose.

Solid Gold SeaMeal

 

 

Me bets the Seaweed meal is why it’s green. The bottle says it has digestive enzymes to help us anipals utilize our food more efficiently. That’s the reason mommy wanted us to try it. We received the 8 oz. jar, which is $12.99. But it also comes in a 1 pound jar and 5 pound jar fur those bigger doggies or multiple anipal households. The jar also includes a 1 teaspoon size scoop to make measurin’ easy. Let’s go ahead and take a look at what Chewy says ‘bout the Solid Gold SeaMeal.

Key Benefits

  • Nutritional supplement to support overall wellness in dogs and cats that combines natural seaweed with flaxseed meal and digestive enzymes

  • Made with red, green, and brown seaweed that provides vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants

  • Contains flaxseed, an abundant source of omega-3 fatty acids to boost the immune system and promote optimal skin and coat health

  • Digestive enzymes help pets utilize their food more efficiently and helps pets suffering from chronic digestive upset, vomiting, or diarrhea

  • Easy to administer: just sprinkle on top of your pet’s meal at each feeding

We have quite a few furiends that have those tummy troubles, so mommy was really excited fur us to try this out to repurrt the effects. We’re always tryin’ to help our furiends find natural solutions when pawssible. And knowin’ kitties offen want what some other kitty’s eatin’, mommy looks fur things that can be safely given to all the anipals in the house.

 

          That’s right sissy. And just the other day mommy was talkin’ to somepawdy ‘bout all the vitamins and minerals added to commercial pet foods; and how so offen, fish oil is used to purrvide the Omega-3 fatty acids. As most everypawdy knows, we’re not big on fish in our house. And more and more kitties are developin’ allergies to fish purroducts. Mommy was happy to see Flaxseed on the ingredient list ‘stead of some fish oil. Serving the Solid Gold SeaMeal is a little different from a lot of these supplements. The directions on the bottle say to add it to the food, pour in some warm water and stir. The directions on Chewy say to mix it with 1/4 inch of warm water in the bottom of the bowl/plate and add food over the top. The jar also recommends spreading the “dose” out over 2 meals a day for the life of your pet. 

 

 Solid Gold SeaMeal mixed with water

 

Mommy tried the jar’s instructions furst. She mixed the SeaMeal into our food and served it to us. ‘Member me said it’s green? Well, after mixin’ our food with it, so was our noms. Neither of us seemed to be the least bit innerested in eatin’ green food. So mommy went back and followed the instructions on Chewy, and mixed it up in the bottom of our plates and added our noms over the top. As most of ya’ know, we like a little gravy, so this option worked much better to get us to eat it. A kitty me’s size, is s’posed to get 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon a day. Now that doesn’t sound like a lot, but when you’re adding it to food, it actually makes a big difference and changes the taste of our noms. Never the less, knowin’ mommy was only tryin’ to help, me gladly ate it all up. ‘Bout an hour later, me horked up a green blobby mess right on the carpet. To say mommy wasn’t purrleased, would be puttin’ it mildly. Oh, she wasn’t angry with me, she just hadn’t planned to clean the cawrpet that day. MOL 

 

Dezi eating dinner

Of course, mommy knew me could’ve just had an upset tummy, or hairball, so a couple of days later, mommy gave me the Solid Gold SeaMeal again. And again, within an hour of eatin’, me horked up a green blobby mess. This happened 2 more times, befur mommy ceased addin’ the SeaMeal to me’s food. It has great ingredients, and me gladly ate it; but it didn’t seem to sit well in me’s tummy. So me would have to give it 2 paws up.

 

Raena looks up from her plate of food with a little bite stuck to her lip/

 

          I’s sorry you horked sissy. I’s know that’s not fun at all. Fankfully, I’s didn’t have that same purroblem. I’s happily ate the Solid Gold SeaMeal gravy and kept it down. And you’re right, it does have great ingredients, so I’s would give it 3 paws up. I’s took a paw off cuz you couldn’t eat it sissy. And I’s want mine’s noms to be just like yours. Mommy wasn’t thrilled that you kept throwin’ it up either, and cuz of that, she couldn’t add it to both our noms. And since you have a habit of stealin’ mine’s noms, mommy can’t add it to mine’s foods without worryin’ that you’ll eat ‘em and hork. So fur that reason, mommy gives the Solid Gold SeaMeal 1 thumb up. So, while it might not be fur every kitty, it’s still a great supplement.

 

 Dezi sits in a chewy box

 

And of course, Chewy is always a great place to shop fur your pets needs. And ifin you set up an auto ship, you’ll never have to worry ‘bout runnin’ out of your pets favorite noms or treats. Don’t worry, you’ll get an email reminder in purrlenty of time to make changes, skip, cancel or delay. And Chewy has great Customer Service Reps, so you can always shop with confidence. And they offur speedy furee shippin’ on all orders of $49.00 and up, and a flat rate on all others.
