Phil N DeBlanc's quilt top, layered for quilting
As many of you know, Phil N DeBlanc is very recently widowed. He just buried his beloved wife and his heart is breaking from the loss. We are making him a Community Quilt which is almost done -- and we will make a matching Pootie Pad to go with.
But Phil has twelve cats.
Pooties don't like to share Pootie Pads, as experience has shown. Fights happen. And a major cat fight is not what we envision for Phil. The cats are surely missing Mrs. Phil, too -- and the plan is not to add to their stress.
Instead, would the community like to supply him with enough pads for the whole pride of cats so that he can have a big catnip party instead? It would lift his heart to see his furbabies playing. Oh, yes!
The cost for the bunch (11 pads) will be $400 (including shipping) -- and (UPDATE) we have reached our goal!!! Thanks, everyone!
Here is The Mean Kitty, not sharing a Pootie Pad!
Rather this is the sort of bliss we're looking for:
The Pootie Pad store is here should you wish to purchase any for your own kitties! We use the finest organic catnip from Oregon and make the pads with pre-washed fabric so there is no toxic sizing or preservatives. Pootie Pads are good clean fun for your cat, made with love. Try one to line the cat carrier the next time you go to the vet!
Please share your own photos of cats and Pootie Pads below -- we love feedback! And thanks for any contributions toward Phil's catnip party.
