Pet parents

There were two things I wanted when I was little: a furry pet, and an older brother.

When I asked my mom, the answer was always "No" (and you can imagine that one of those answers was "No" with a giggle).

So when my husband and I had the opportunity to rescue three cats from being abandoned in the countryside, we jumped at the chance! Meet Mowgli, Mrs. Hufflepuff, and Gizmo (from left to right):


I never knew I could love pets so much - they all became my fur babies!

Sometimes, cats and crafting don't mix. I recently heard from Zoe about her cat Daisy who ingested sewing machine thread. Daisy is in critical condition, and Zoe is attempting to raise funds for her surgery through a big giveaway. I'll be contributing a gift certificate to my shop, and you can learn how to enter over here.

Anyone who has a pet knows firsthand how much a part of the family they become, how near and dear to your heart they are. Let's rally around Zoe and Daisy!!

    I totally hear you on the furry pets! Since we have two, I just love them so much! They are my boys and I couldn't image life without them

    Your babies are SO cute! My boys love to get into my craft supplies... Elliott ate some hemp string a while back, but luckily he threw it up a day later. I'm going to go visit Zoe right now.

    I have finally admitted to being a pet person. Now that the kids are older {and my daughter cleans the cat box}I really enjoy them. Especially the fact that the Dog never complains about what's for dinner or Bed time :)

    Prayers for Zoe & Daisy.

    Triplets!!!Love them they are adorable. I am a licensed Vet Tech - it was my second college major. When I worked we had a pair of kittens set fire to someones kitchen playing with the stove knobs when they weren't home!!! Luckily it was only the kitchen and not the whole house - but really they are just like toddlers!
