This is a big shopping week for us here in the United States. The day after we give thanks for what we have, we’re wooed from our warm beds in the wee hours of the morning to go out and buy more stuff. We call this day Black Friday.
For those of not you willing to brave the traffic, the crowds and the crazy motivated shoppers, here are some ideas for the pet lovers on your list that you can purchase from the comfort of your own home. (Fuzzy bunny slippers optional.) After all, us crazy devoted pet-lovers spent over $50 billion dollars on our fur babies last year!
1. RESCUE CHOCOLATE
100% of the proceeds are donated to rescue shelters around the country. It’s organic, cruelty-free and plus you know… it’s chocolate! Purchase it HERE (*for human consumption only)
2. BIG MUTTS DOOR MAT
“We like Big Mutts and we cannot lie.”
Wipe off paws, feet and scare off would-be intruders! Purchase HERE
3. PET PORTRAITS FROM A PHOTO
These beautiful pencil sketches can be done right from a photo you upload to their website. So easy! They also offer watercolor and oil. Check it out HERE
4. WINE CHARMS
A nice bottle of wine is a great holiday gift, but why not add a little something special? These cute hand painted wine charms are available in CATS or DOGS
5. MAKE A DONATION IN THEIR NAME TO A RESCUE ORGANIZATION
Ask them what their favorite rescue charity is. Or if you want to surprise them, here a few of my favorite ones:
Also, I’m excited to announce the upcoming release of the third book in my Pet Psychic Series!
Should be available next week & books are always a great gift!
Happy Shopping! Do you participate in the Black Friday madness?

November 26, 2013 at 5:42 pml used to…l don’t anymore. The last time l did was to get a great deal on Gilmore Girls DVDs at Target. l couldn’t get anyone to wait on me to see where these discounted DVDs were. Plus there was a woman talking on her cell phone blocking the whole aisle with her cart while she tried to find out which insipid movie she could get for grandma, who didn’t know what was going on anymore anyway.
No, thanks. And l don’t like the stores open on Thanksgiving. Black Friday is supposed to be on a Friday.
