Cats! Enter to win the Neko Napper Pet House by Nekochan!

Hi and happy Friday!!!

Cody and I couldn't be happier to present one of the most adorable cat homes ever! It is made by our friends at Nekochan (the creators of Cody's FAVORITE toy), and it is a part of the Neko Nappers line, it is the:

 Neko Napper Pet House!!

Is this not the most adorable house? 

When we think of Nekochan, the first thing that comes to mind is QUALITY. Nekochan is a manufacturer and distributor of unique, high quality pet products.

Cody and I have featured products from Nekochan numerous times, the first time, was on March 7, 2011 when Cody first fell in love with his "kittenator" (which to this day, is his FAVORITE toy!)

 It is evident that the chief designer at Nekochan has a great understanding of cats and the things that they love! Nekochan's COMMITMENT TO HIGH QUALITY is, in my opinion, unsurpassed.

The Neko Napper Pet House was created to resemble a "chateau" and has a pad that is plush (perfect for making biscuits!!) and is machine washable! You wash it in cold water and air dry.

Like the rest of the Nekochan line the Pet House is:

• High quality and durable
•  Foldable for storage and travel
• Has walls that are "tufted" which gives it added support and makes it easy to fold!
• The dimensions are 16.5" (L) x 18" (W) x 16.5 " (H)
• Is stylish living for cats AND small dogs!!!!
• If your cat prefers NOT to be in an enclosed space, you can unzip the roof and use the roof as a pad as well!

What cat doesn't love a hidey-hole to escape from the world? The Neko Napper Pet House makes napping extra cozy, stylish and FUN!

Assembling the Pet House could NOT be easier! I assembled it within a few minutes, and if I can, anyone can!

To assemble you merely:

• unfold base
• place the sleeping pad inside the base
• attach the roof to the side walls with zipper and Velcro strips, that's it!!!

It even keeps away GIANT FURRY INTRUDERS!!!

If it is possible, I think I love the Neko Napper Pet House as much as Cody! As many of you know, Cody was ill last month. Ironically, I had set up his Pet House practically the same day. Once assembled, Cody IMMEDIATELY entered it and spent the majority of the days that he wasn't feeling well in his Pet House.

The photos above were all taken at that time. The Pet House not only offered Cody warmth and a cozy place to rest, it allowed him to still be with the family, AND have his OWN SPACE without fear of anyone (or a certain woofie) bothering him.

To say that this Pet House was a godsend would be an understatement. During the time that Cody wasn't eating and was lethargic, having this Pet House become his haven, brought me peace of mind and at least a little bit of joy! It made me feel good to know that even if he wasn't feeling well, he had a wonderfully warm and inviting space where he could rest.

Thankfully, Cody is FINE and the Neko Napper Pet House is STILL one of his favorite spots to nap. It has been bitterly cold here in Michigan as it has been  in many parts of the country, and to Cody, this winter is "pawsitively cozy!" because of nis Neko Napper Pet House!

Kitties are you ready?

Our friend at Nekochan has generously agreed to offer a GIVE-AWAY!!!!  Yes, that's right!! ONE LUCKY KITTY WHO RESIDES IN THE U.S. OR CANADA WILL WIN ONE!! (It is a $70 value!) Entering is super easy! Just enter on the Rafflecopter below! Good luck!!!

In full disclosure:I was not compensated for this review and give-away. I was sent a Neko Napper Pet House in exchange for my honest review.

Purrs and Prayers Still Needed

Hi every furry, it's me, Cody and I wanted to stop by just to give you a quick update.

As many of you know, I am not feeling well. Mom and I aren't going into detail right now because we don't know anything definitively at this point, but as soon as we do we will update you.

For those who do not know, I haven't been eating right and I was at my regular Vet Saturday and then they made me go to the Emergency Vet where they stabbed, poked, shaved and upset me with all of their pawing around trying to find out what is making me sick. I was an excellent boy, but I just wanted to go home.

I went home Saturday night and I ate all of my food. Then, I ate ALL of my food Sunday without any appetite stimulant!

I got up this morning and didn't feel like eating at all. Mom gave me my appetite stimulant about an hour ago and I haven't eaten yet. Mom is quite worried. We are supposed to call our Vet tomorrow when he is back in town (for follow-up testing), but if I haven't eaten by this afternoon, Mom said she is going to call his Associate.

Mom and I want to thank everyone for all of the caring emails, Facebook messages and Facebook comments we have received. We can't begin to thank you enough for your kindness and caring. We feel as if we didn't thank EVERYONE and if we didn't respond to you personally in a comment on Facebook, we apologize.

Please pray that I am feeling better soon.

I was supposed to have a give-away today for the Neko Nappers Pet House that you see above, but I am not feeling up to it right now. I called the sweet lady at Nekochan to tell her, and she was so nice! She said to just get better and we will hopefully have the give-away soon! I just want to be feeling more like myself so that I can handle the give-away purrfectly. (I love the Pet House and have been spending virtually ALL of my resting time in it! It makes me feel all warm, cozy and safe).

Thank you so much for your understanding, love, caring and support........we love and appreciate each and every one of you.

Cody and (Mom too)

UPDATE: I ATE!!! At 9:30 am Mom "delivered" my food to my cabin, (ordering in is ALWAYS good!) and I ate half of my container of Chicken Purrcata!!!   (Mom had given me the other 1/4 of my appetite stimulant at 8:30 she gave the first 1/4 at 7:30)  Mom is thrilled and told me I am a good boy!!!

Mom and I were also remiss by not saying anything about all of the others who have recently had kitties cross the bridge and poor Marge who needs help with that adorable Donkey boy "Joe". We are heartbroken by all of the loss, illness and horrible events taking place in the blogosphere right now, we send our love, sympathy and prayers to all,  and we pray that things improve for EVERYONE SOON!!!

Cat Style Comes to BlogPaws 2014 Thanks to Kate Benjamin of Hauspanther

2014 was definitely the Year of the Cat at the BlogPaws Conference in Lake Las Vegas May 8-10th, thanks to the tireless efforts of Kate Benjamin, who in my humble opinion is the reigning "Queen of Cats", and owner of the popular website Hauspanther,

where her mission is to "spread the word about how good design can enhance the way we live with cats, improving our lives and the lives of our beloved feline companions. By paying attention to the design of objects and environments, we can create living spaces that accommodate the natural instincts of cats – keeping them happy, healthy and well behaved – without compromising our own sense of style and comfort."

Kate Benjamin the reigning "Queen of Cats"

This cat blogger, along with a clowder of others,  ooo'ed and ahhh'ed with delight as we made our way through the 1200 sq ft display of over 150 cat products provided by forty companies! I am proud to say that a number of the companies who had products on display have at one time or another been featured right here, on THIS blog!

The first of those companies is featured above,  Tipsy Nip Organic Catnip Products and the maker of one of Cody's all time faves, The Tickle Pickle!! The video below was showcased on this blog on our review of Tipsy Nip on  October 4, 2011.

Tipsy Nip Organic Catnip Products are made in Vermont. All of their products are made from the best quality materials and ingredients. Their mission is to create healthy toys that make all of the kitties insanely happy. They succeeded with Cody, that is for sure! So much so, that as you can see above, he could smell the nip right through the plastic!

Another company that we have featured (approximately FOUR TIMES!)  is Nekochan Enterprises, the makers of another of Cody's all time favorite toys, the Neko Flies line of cat toys!!! Cody currently has his eye on their new line of Neko Nappers pet houses which are showcased above. It took every ounce of self-control that I could muster, NOT to walk away with that display! Here is a video from the first time we featured Neko Flies, back on

March 7, 2011.

To this day, Cody's Small Kittenator   remains his "toy of choice" in the world of dangle cat toys. He knows the drawer it is stored in and will walk in, stand on his hind legs and loudly demand that it be pulled from it's slumber.

Another product that we have (and Cody LOVES) is the Peek-a-Prize Toy Box (featured in the middle below)

 

It is impossible to showcase all 150 products that were displayed in the Cat Style Lounge, so here are just a few photos to whet your appetite some more!
