Monday MEWsings Picks features Peruvian Wool Cat Beds and Toys

Another Monday brings another feature from the Marvelous Meow lovers over at the Cat Avis Unite Team on Etsy. Often times I feature two or three shops at a time, but occasionally I find one whose story affects me in such a way that it would be unfair to include another shop with it. Today is a case in point.  Wraptcats is not just producing handmade for the sake of earning extra income. There is a memory and much love behind each product. Please be sure to click on the listings to visit Wraptcats. You will love what you see. I know I did! Her story:


I was fortunate enough to find my true companion in life. A friend through thick and thin. I didn't know we were going to be bound together the way we were, but she did. She insisted. 


I found Jesse and her siblings in my shed when they were 3 weeks old. Her mother had disappeared. So, I took them in. I raised them, and found good homes for her brother and sister. But Jesse stayed with me. She followed me everywhere. She even learned how to turn doorknobs and open doors so she was never left behind. Soon, if she wasn't by my side, I felt incomplete. She passed away on February 15th, 2010. She spent her last Valentine's Day with me, plus 19 other wonderful years. I miss her terribly. In order to honor her memory I started making cat beds. She loved sleeping on my wool sweaters. So, each time I make a cat bed, it is made with love and intention. Something that will last the lifetime of your pet with wishes of good health and happiness. 


For the love of Jesse.  >^,,^<
