3 Days of Twinkle left, Oh My…

Chanukah is here! Christmas is only 3 days away! Boxing Day and Kwanzaa 4 days away! All the celebrating… all the lights… all the wrapping… are you ready?!?!?

We hope our 5^th annual 12 Days of Twinkle helped to get you ready and into the spirit of the season. And, if you’re still getting ready, we have a few days left of in-store sales and will be hosting one last round of Holiday Cheer on the 24^th in both…

Wow, it’s the middle of December so you know what that means… home stretch of the holiday shopping season!!! Our  5^th Annual 12 Days of Twinkle is still going strong and features lots of festive cheer, greats deals on gifts for the pet/pet lover in your life, AND several social events such as our Mutt Mingle tonight in Long Beach (Lime Santa will be there!), as well as adoptions and more. …

The holiday season brings such anticipation and childhood giddiness, it just can’t help but bring a smile to all…  shopping for loved ones, figuring out clever hiding spots, and everyone’s favorite… decorating the house with family while listening to Holiday music! The time leading up to the holidays has always been the most memorable and exciting times for me, and many here at Pussy & Pooch – we love all the festiveness, and of course, all of the twinkle... …

The holiday season is in full swing here at Pussy & Pooch with our very own winter wonderland – have we got our festive on! We just love this time of year – twinkle lights, holiday decorations, lots of cheer, and of course, shopping for the perfect gifts for those special people and pets we love! Sure, the hustle and bustle of the season can get daunting, but, we aspire to keep it light and easy, making it fun for…

With Thanksgiving only a week away, time with family, traveling and lots of food typically come to mind.  Every year as a kid, there was a contest to see which of my cousins could eat the most, and still have room for my aunt’s delicious sweet potato pie…  Stuffed to the brim, my cousins and I were at an age where our metabolism gave us the luxury of devouring plate after plate of scrumptious food,  then have the energy to go out and play, then eat some more. Thanksgiving being a food and…

It’s sad to say but, we usually outlive our pets, so we really need to appreciate all the time that can be shared together – especially with older dogs and cats.  Most of us with older pets already know and can appreciate the unconditional love and affection pets share with you over the course of their lives – it’s…

Black Cats. Witch Hats. Ghouls & Goblins. Haunted Houses.

Halloween is in the air! You ready?

No matter how young or old, the Halloween spirit gives everyone the opportunity to have a little fun. But, what about our pets? One of the best ways to have fun and celebrate Halloween with your pet is…

As a proud new Cat Daddy, I think my little guy, Kit, is the coolest thing since sliced bread!  Because he’s still young, I decided I wanted to challenge him w/ some training exercises, like how to come, sit, and fetch.  With a few tasty Whole Life Chicken treats, we made some major progress!  The time spent working on these…

This past Tuesday, the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels, here in downtown Los Angeles, held its 5th Annual 'Dog Day Afternoon' Event!  Last year, there were over 1,000 people and 500 plus dogs that filled the plaza of the Cathedral.  The social canine event of the year attracted dogs of all breeds and their humans for a festive evening of mingling, music, pet-related vendor displays, and great food – all to celebrate our four-legged furry ambassadors who help create the Downtown Los…

Within the time I've worked at Pussy and Pooch, I've met hundreds of customers, eager to pamper their pets with the most stylish accessories, and healthiest of treats and food.  Ever so often, I'll meet a customer who, at first glance, thinks our store is geared more towards the pooches, but we love pussies just the same!!  …

What can I say about these collars that they don't say for themselves - wow!  We just got a new shipment of these collars last week, and they've been a HUGE hit since we put them on display!  Based in Europe and made from high quality English Bridle leather, Diamond Dogs has over thirty years of handcrafting AMAZING collars, leads, coats, tassels and belt accessories.  These beautiful collars have serviced awesome clientele - U2, Mick…

I wasn't sure what to expect w/ this month's Meow Mingle.  Typically, our mingles (both Mutt and Meow) are a light but festive crowd, but this particular mingle was special... We were privileged to have the founder of Vox Felina, Moderncat editor and founder, Kate Benjamin and the host of Animal Planet's new hit show, 'My Cat From Hell' - …

As a guy who is REALLY big into limited/exclusive sales (whether it be sneakers, clothes, DVD's, or other collectors items), I always like to get my hands on rare finds.  Speaking from experience with sneakers, whenever it comes to a 'limited' (or just a cool) pair of sneakers, my size is rarely available, so I end up having to go online and special order what I desire (which typically takes much longer and can be a VERY frustrating process).…

Spring is in full force!  Days are getting longer and warmer (despite the last couple days)... it's my favorite time of the year!  Baseball season starts up, the NBA finally starts playing REAL basketball during the playoffs (RIP Lakers '11, go Bulls!) and there's always that smell of fresh cut grass that seeps into your window on early mornings - Spring time gives me an awesome feeling!  There always seems to be a sense of rebirth and rejuvination in the air, but for some, its not as…

So... we just got these HOT new Buddy Belts and I'd be a JERK if I didn't make this the next Product Spotlight!  I'm not going to give too much information about these new harness, because I feel they speak for themselves.  The new colors are: Darth Gator (textured/raised leather print), Hot Pink (solid/smooth classic leather), Blue Bayou (glossy/smooth blue-hued leather) and 2 new Luxury Harnesses, Pearl (smooth/smokey leather finish) and Dogzilla (glossy assorted green leather…
