Confessions of the Plume

Hai Furriends! We are hanging in there, still furry busy with orders that came in from the weekend pawty and such. We are not quite halfway to our goal yet but we are confident that we will get there and the rest of the way!

We are always trying to make the shop better so we have with the help of others come up with a couple of ideas. We would love to know what you think about these ideas. Check out our ideas below.

Please leave us a comment here or tweet me @BabyPatches on twitter to let me know. And for those facebook peeps you can contact me on my page facebook.com/BabyPatches.

1. A calendar where every cat and dog can enter their birthday and gotcha days. These would be visible to everyone who has an account for our shop, so all of your furriends can see when your special days are. On top of that, you can then sign up for our new gift registry where you will add items to your wish list. You will indicate that you have a gift registry on the calendar so that your furriends can see what you want.

This is how it would work:
- You look up your furriend’s birthday on the calendar and see they are registered
- Search the registry for your furriend’s wish list
- Purchase something from their list and it will disappear from their list

You can come back every month to see who is on the list if you would like to spoil your furriends!

2. We would like to offer the “Nip and Bones Auto Ship” program! This would be where you can purchase a box of treats, toys, or a mixture of products to be shipped on a 2-week, monthly, or every other month duration. There could potentially be a lot of options, so that you would get the same treats every time or different ones. You could also specify any preferences if you are allergic or don’t like squeakers for example.

The price would be depending on what type of items you are purchasing, shipping fee would be included in the price but you could say purchase a 6 month subscription and save on the price.

SO… let us know what you think!! We really need to know so that we can invest our time in making this happen. Thank you for your support.
