Confessions of the Plume

Hi everyone! If you stopped by last week you may have caught my post where I was meowing about how I will be doing posts on advice and how our products can help solve problems. But first momma and I wanted to explain a little bit about why we carry the unique pet products that we do.

When we started the Nip and Bones shop momma had already discovered some of the most unique items available for cats and dogs. She knew that there must be other pet parents out there that felt the same way she did when visiting her local major pet store. That there seemed to be the same old stuff over and over, she always wanted to get us some kind of new toy or item. She even found herself online buying beds, treats, and more before she even had the idea to start our shop.

We are the kids in our family and like many other families there are furry kids included. So birthdays, holidays, and just for the heck of it times, result in something new for us. Heck we even have to get replacements when our toys get worn out, how many nip nanners have you gone through? Or how many favorite toys has the dog ate?

And as most loving pet parents know not every cat or dog loves the same type of toys. What if your kitty doesn’t like catnip? Are you going to find alternative herb toys at major pet stores? Nope.

Another thing that momma discovered over the years is that a lot of the items she thought were cool and different for which she purchased at a major store didn’t last for every long. They would end up being disappointing and wasted the green papers.

So we want everyone to know that the items we select and sell are specifically chosen for a number reasons included uniqueness, longevity, problem-solving ability, and more. This may result in a higher price ticket for a lot of the things we carry. We hope you understand that is because these items are not mass produced on a scale that would provide lower pricing.

With that said if you ever desire any products we don’t carry there is a good chance we can still get it and we welcome the chance to do that for you. So don’t hesitate to sends me an email and let me know.

Also, as a result of our specialty pet products selection many more popular brands are not something you will tend to find in our shop. There are a number of reasons for this including what we mentioned above, ability to offer you the best pricing, and our ability to obtain the items. BUT we love our unique pet products because we know the joy and satisfaction they bring to the people & pets who get them.

We try our furry best and want you to know that we are still competing with the big boys out there as its always easy to just drive down the street. So our hopes are that we can keep Nip and Bones in mind when you need products for your cats and dogs!

This year we are looking to improve our order processing times and are looking forward to the great many new unique pet supplies coming to the shop!

As always your purrrrrrs, woofs, and thoughts are welcome! *nosetaps*
