Santa Brought Fat Rats!

Beepers must have been a good boy this year because his secret Santa brought him three fat rats from The Cat in the Clover!



It looks like he has picked out his favorite one!

Don't pull on their tails, Beepers!

Date Night!

Fido's girlfriend, Allie, knew he would look especially handsome in one of the new bow tie Calvin collars! She picked out this red and white collar with the snowman button as one of his Christmas presents.


Allie better watch out . . . . . . the girls are all going to swoon when they see Fido!

Bow Tie Arnold P.!

Arnold P. knows to impress the girls (and Santa Paws), sometimes you need to bring out the formalwear! His bow tie Calvin collar charm says, Born to Nap, but we think the wink should change that charm to, Born to Flirt!

Very handsome, Arnold P.! There are a couple more bow tie Calvin collars available in the shop - get yours in time for New Year's Eve!

A New Line of Calvin Collars!

Handsome mancat Cas wanted to get dressed up for the holidays, but told his Mom that the Calvin Collars he saw over at The Cat in the Clover Etsy shop were too girly girl for him.

He asked us if we could create a manly mancat bow tie Calvin Collar! His wish was our command, and thanks to Cas a new line of Calvin Collars has hit the streets!


The very first Bow Tie Calvin Collar now belongs to Cas!

And three more have been made - just in time for New Year's Eve!

Thank you, Cas, for the inspiration. I know Calvin would approve!

Ready for Santa!

Tigger is all dressed up in his Christmas Calvin Collar and waiting for Santa Paws to come. I'm sure Santa will bring Tigger a stocking full of catnip toys because I've heard he has been a very good boy this year!



Merry Christmas, Tigger!

Happy Birthday Gleek!

Today my handsome mancat, Gleek, is having his 6th birthday! Gleek was my Mom's last stray to be taken in before she passed away. Since I didn't know his actual birthday, I thought it would be appropriate for him to share his special day with my Mom who would have been 79 today.

Happy birthday Gleeky! We love you!

Keeping Warm!

Tigger says, Hey Mom, it's getting cold . . . . . get me my Calvin Collar!

There is nothing better than a warm neck for naptime! Be sure to check out all the new holiday Calvin Collars in the shop!

Happy Halloween!

The mate was a mighty sailing man

The Skipper brave and sure

The Millionaire

The movie star

They all hope your Halloween is fun and not too spooky!

Ready for Halloween!

Callie is guarding her cute cat pumpkin while she models her new Halloween Calvin Collar!



Don't even think of getting near her candy!

Birthday Pals!

Several friends and big fans of The Cat in the Clover Calvin Collars are celebrating birthdays today. Happy 18th birthday to handsome Tigger!

Callie and her brother, Teebo, are partying in style on their 8th birthdays!

Teebo looks so debonair in his tie!

And sweet Alfie is celebrating his birthday remembrance at the bridge - it is his first birthday since journeying this past January. Keeping you in our thoughts on this day, Alfie!



Happy October!

We Love Dogs Too!

We might be crazy about cats here at The Cat in the Clover, but we're doggone ga-ga over dogs too! Be sure to check out this pawsome video by the group called OK Go! The song is entitled White Knuckles, but who cares about that - the dogs are adorable!




Isn't it great that you find promotion of dog adoptions in the most unlikely places?

The Monkeys!

Samson, one half of the duo known as The Monkeys, contacted me to say that his Mom's angel kitty from The Cat in the Clover had arrived.

Muddy was one handsome mancat, and his Mom now has an angel kitty made in his likeness.

Samson, and his sister, Delilah, featured the angel kitty on their blog today! Go check it out! And if you want your own angel kitty in memory of one of your cats at the bridge, stop by my Etsy shop to order.

Shiver Me Timbers!

Aye, mateys! It's Talk Like a Pirate Day! I'm Gleek, also known around tha pirate ship as Cap'n Big Bones! Don't mess with me pirate food, and we'll get along fine!

Arrrrrrrr . . . . . . . .

Goulishly Cute!

Witches, skeletons, and ghosts . . . . . oh my! Before you know it, Halloween will be here, so it's time to grab a Calvin Collar and get ready to hand out the candy!

More cute designs will be added to the shop soon, but you can be the first to get yours by visiting The Cat in the Clover Etsy shop! Your kitty will thank you!

Beaded Tail

One of my favorite blogs to read each day is Beaded Tail. The tail part of the company includes two adorable kitties named Angel and Isabella, and a cute doggie named Sadie!

Their Mommy recently purchased two cat angels from my Etsy shop. She has them featured today on her blog!

After you stop by and read today's post, then check out the awesome jewelry she makes in her Beaded Tail Etsy shop!

I just purchased this adorable necklace from her, and I can't wait to get it! I own several Beaded Tail pieces. They are unique, beautiful, and guaranteed to be noticed when you wear them!

Thanks for featuring The Cat in the Clover today!

Inky Dinky Do!

This is the newest of my front porch visitors. He is so adorable, and friendly, and doesn't live in the neighborhood. I get so angry when I think about people either dumping their pets, or leaving them outside 24/7.


It didn't take long for Inky to warm up to me, and it just shows that all our pets want is some attention and love. He rolls around and hugs on my foot!

What a handsome face on this mancat!

And nothing breaks my heart more than to be sitting in the living room watching television to look over and see this! Newman will go over and try to play with Inky through the window - it is so adorable!

If anyone has it in their heart to give this wonderful kitty a home, it would make my day!

Peace & Love!

This handsome mancat is Teddy Bearz! He is from Canada, and he loves his new Peace Calvin Collar!

Teddy is an expert at opening cabinet and closet doors! I think he is an expert at modeling too. Check out his adorable Catster page. Remember, all you need is love!
