Pledge Fabric Sweeper for Pet Hair
My friend Mei from Jake and Micah (see site) are trading a Siamese porcelain sculpture for some Pledge Fabric Sweepers. I have looked and looked and looked for them around here, couldn't find them so she sent some to me all the way from California.
These things definitely get two thumbs up, Luxor sheds all over the couch and these things picked it right up. I'm really impressed with the way it works and it should last about a month or so. Glad we've got 3 more!!!!

Here is the underside of the sweeper.

And here is my couch, before and after - there is a little hair left but you can see that it's a difficult place to get all the hair off.

Shout out to Jake and Micah!
A while back I blogged about a shop where there were handmade catnip toys galore! Well "Jake and Micah" is back!
We exchanged catnip fortune cookies for all my co-workers for two sculptures to match her workspace. The cookies were a hit! We had to hide the box until I had a chance to open it because Stoli was all over it.
Here is a little taste of what went on when I gave Stoli and Luxor a fortune cookie from Jake and Micah..........

Jake & Micah
Jake & Micah is a shop featuring handmade kitty toys, collars and other accessories. Mei is the human behind the kitties, she's a designer and has taken her love for design and sewing and put it to use for all trendy cats.
Mei makes catnip fortune cookies that you can get in just about any color combination. Her products have been featured on another Indie artist's site, Pattern and Paw. I'll be blogging again about Jake and Micah after I receive my fortune cookies. Some lucky friends of mine will receive these as presents!!
From Jake and Micah's site:
Read more...The idea for Jake & Micah began in 2007 when frustrated with the selection of cat products found in pet boutiques, Mei decided to design her own cat toys and accessories. The goal of Jake & Micah is to create products that are unique and fun but also safe from pesticides. All items are handcrafted with your pet's happiness in mind. We use only the freshest, sweetest certified organic catnip in all our toys. Your kitty will know the difference immediately. After much testing by Jake, Micah and their kitty family and friends, these products are now available for super lucky pets! We know you'll enjoy our products and know your pets will too!
