If you’re a cat owner, no doubt you are always on the lookout for great pet cat supplies. Right?

I know it – If you’re anything like me, I’m constantly checking to see if I can’t find a great deal on pet food, cute clothes, games that involve my pets or treats!

What I did find for you cat lovers out there is the neatest cat furniture at Outdora.com in their pet cat supplies section.

Check out one of their adorable beds (left)…too cute – and you could hide some of their toys in the drawer below or treats…

What I didn’t expect to find there, though, were cat safety kits for first aid. Great idea…We often don’t think about how important our pet’s safety is or if you’re prepared for an emergency or disaster with your pet.

Also, something unique I found in their pet cat supplies that I have never seen before were cat memorials. Our pets are so very important to us, don’t you want to make a statement about remembering them? I know our pets are very important members of our family and we honor them with dignity and love…

Spirulina in Fish Food for Colored Fish

August 20, 2009 by Kimberly · Leave a Comment 

When you read the ingredients on the back of food packages, it’s often we all get “lost”…to say the least.

Well, multiply that by 10 when you’re talking about pet food…pets eat things we don’t…

So, how often do you actually look on the back of your turtle food container and question the ingredients…Not often, I suspect.

Same goes for gerbil food or bird food.

Well, I have information on one ingredient in some fish foods you might want to include in their diet.

Spirulina Powder (Spirulina platensis) ½ lb: KIf you have fish that aren’t white (and supposed to be white), then Spirulina is a great supplement in some fish foods that will enhance color.

For instance, if you have fancy goldfish, like we do, who are brightly colored oranges, browns, reds, apricot or yellow, feeding them food with Spirulina in it will make them Read more

Ashes to Gems – Have You Heard of This?

April 16, 2009 by Kimberly · Leave a Comment 

I’m not really sure how I feel about this product/service.

If you haven’t heard about this before, as I hadn’t, you must listen…

This place I stumbled upon today called Ashes2Gems.com, turns just that – ashes to gems.

However, they use the cremated remains of your pet or relative to do it.

ashes2gemsEach set of remains is used to create a man-made diamond (not CZ) from your loved one’s ashes, nails or hair.

Basically, they extract the carbon content of the “cremains” and use it in a secret, patented process to create these beautiful stones.

It is an expensive service, but the stone is unique and well, made of your loved one.

The cost for this is:

Conversion of ashes, nails or hair, into a real 1 carat cut and polished yellow diamond costs around £3950 (fully inclusive).

A 1-carat Pink or Blue diamond costs up to £6250. These prices include personal collection of the material, uniquely identifying the source, sending to the laboratory, intermediary depositing of funds and the release and delivery to your door.

It is possible for them to create different Read more

This is Why I Want to Save Exotic Animals!

April 10, 2009 by Kimberly · Leave a Comment 

I was looking at some of our photos we have taken of animals over the years yesterday, and it hit me…

…I wanted to cry that these animals may not be here when my children go to see them on their adventures…

…They may never get to see them in their wildest state – in nature!

For many of you who have been an ExoticAnimalLover.com fan for some time, you’ll remember this photo, as it was the photo used in the header for the last theme we used for the site.

This is actually one of our own photos…but it sparked me…

“This is Why I Want To Save Exotic Animals!”

Today, I was looking around Vista Print to get some car magnets for some business stuff, and I was compelled to create this photo magnet:

whyiwanttosaveanimals-magnet

This will go on my refrigerator door so it will remind me over and over of the reason I want to save animals…

…For the next generations of this world to experience the beauty and splendor – just knowing they are there making our planet extraordinary!

Imagine: If there were no more gorillas like this one on our planet! What a tragedy that would be!

Anyway, Vista Print also has a lot of other amazing ways to remind you of animals…

They have templates you can use with animals or you can upload your own photos, as I’ve done here!

You can even make save the date magnets – which are calendars you can create on a large magnet!

They’re really cool, and I think I could use one of those while I’m at it…

An Animal Lover Christmas

December 27, 2008 by Kimberly · Leave a Comment 


You always know the animal lovers at Christmas time when they show you their gifts…

Half of the gifts were for their animals…LOL

With us, that’s the truth, no exception to that rule, and we LOVE IT!

If you think about people’s hobbies and get them a great gift for that…it’s just that…A GREAT GIFT!

Now, our pets are so much more than a hobby…They are a lifestyle, so to speak…

They are our life and they are a part of our family just like any person is.  They are important and an ever present joy!

So, as you can guess we received presents that included our animals too!

Our family gave us gift certificates to the pet store, lots of Read more

No Response to My Petcetera Complaint Letter

November 26, 2008 by Kimberly · 5 Comments 


On October 28th, 2008, I sent a complaint letter to Petcetera and have since received absolutely NO response to it!

Check it out here:

“I’d like to comment about my “service” today at the N*&^%$# F@#$% [my city] location of Petcetera, of which I am a very loyal customer, that was inexcusable. (I have 5 dogs, 1 hedgehog (from a competitor’s store), 4 goldfish and 1 pleco – which I purchased at this Petcetera, and the aquarium). Honestly, I’m in the store a few times per week and almost always make a purchase upon visiting the store.

Last night, I went into the store to look at the new shipment of fish they receive every Thursday to decide upon any that I liked, and to return 1 item.

Art Poster Print - Country Comp: the Nap - Artist: Unknown - Poster Size: 20 X 16 inchesI was helped by an EXTREMELY helpful and sweet cashier and a Fabulous on-duty manager (I believe), but am unsure of their names. The manager assisted me in the fish area and we got to talking about the pets I have at home, one of which is a hedgehog.

She was excited to hear that I am a hedgehog enthusiast and have had them over the past 10 yrs. She was excited because at that location, they’ve had a hedgehog for over 2 months, who no one ever wants to look at.

I was happy to hear about it because it is difficult to Read more

What Bedding Is Best for Hedgehogs?

October 27, 2008 by Kimberly · 2 Comments 


As you all may remember, I own an African Pygmy Hedgehog…It’s the 2nd one I’ve owned, in fact.

When you are choosing bedding for your little critters, you need to keep a few things in mind:

* Comfort
* Smell
* Dryness
* Safety
* Price

Pestell Corn Cob Bedding (40-lb bag)I use corn cob bedding, after trying so many different kinds over the years.

I found that cedar and pine shavings start to smell awful quickly! Also, they just hold the water and can harbor mold a lot easier. Plus, I didn’t feel that it was very comfortable to sleep in.

Why Do I Use That?
* Our hedgehog can move them around easily, since they enjoy burrowing. It moves to her body shape due to the small size of the pieces. It’s almost like lying down in small beads.

* It fights smell of hedgie waste longer than any other type of bedding I’ve used.

* It is organic and safe to use, even if it happens to get into their food or water.

* It is super absorbent and keeps the area dry.

* It is really cheap too! Only about $15.00 for a huge, 40 lb bag!

It Rocks!

Is That All I Use?
Actually, until just recently, this is all I used. However, I recently discovered a neat product that keeps the bedding from smelling.

Critter Litter - 4 lb.It’s called Read more
