As you may know I’m a big person on samples and coupons and I could never find store coupons or samples of Wellness.  On Tuesday I ran across the Catster.com forums where they had successfully gotten Wellness coupons and samples from Old Mother Hubbard.   All you have to do is call 1-800-225-0904 and ask for your Wellness samples and coupons. I called on Tuesday and on Friday I received my samples & coupons in the mail!   The coupons expire in January of 2009 and say $1.00 off of any Wellness purchase.   Catster.com says you can call every month to get these, if you’re a little nervous to do that every month have a friend or family member call for you.  Enjoy!

Last night Abbey had some fun getting her head stuck inside the cardboard scratcher we have for the cats. I was able to catch it which surprised me because we were laughing so hard watching her and then Gizmo who plopped on top of it. 

She’s a crazy little thing.

This is our first Wordless Wednesday and it features Franky, the queen of the bed…..

and Abbey the mighty stalker…

On a side note Abbey is doing GREAT! We took her off of the Hills Science Diet wet food because Gizmo was getting it and both were starting to get diarrhea.  There has been no prolapse since July 17 which is 27 days!  Her normal vet called to check up on her and we haven’t seen any signs which would incline us to take her to the new vet because she is progressing well.  Perhaps rescheduling her appointments was a good thing as she is doing very well!

I usually don’t post things like there on here, but I thought it would be good for anyone who shops online.  I recently ran across a website that gives you money back for shopping online.  I use one similar to this but they don’t always have the stores I use online.

I noticed they not only give a $5.00 registration bonus but besides money back on shopping they also list a lot of coupons for online shopping!    I do a lot of eBay surfing and buying; I saw they give you 1% back when shopping on eBay!  Woot!  Plus they have 26 pet stores to get some money back for pet products.  Where I usually shop for pet food it Petfood Direct as you all know and they offer 5% back on that.

The cash back minimum is low, you can receive your cash back once your money his $10.00, via paypal or check.

I signed up for this and I’ll keep you all updated on my cash back progress.

 I recently ran across some coupons that I thought I’d share.

PetCare RX has free shipping over $35, good deal there! Shipping prices have gone up due to gas prices.

Only Natural Pet Store Save 5% on orders over $75.00 with code CJ75.  Also code SNUGGLE22 will give you 10% off any pet beds.

Pet Food Direct.com has several good coupons out at the moment.  Code PET3552 will give you 20% off your entire order, PER35 will give you 12% off your order,  PER10PCT will give you 10% off the entire order, code PER15OFF will give you $15 off an order of $175 or more.

Animal Den (great site for gifts like calendars, earrings, toys, lots of gifts, breed specific too!) Code ad202 will get you 5% off a $30 order, ad203 will get you 10% off a $50 purchase, clicking on the image above will get you 10% off cat gifts.

Well we had another issue come up and Abbey’s appointment had to be rescheduled again. My husband had to go to a job interview in Albany and from where we are it is a 6 hour drive, so because of this her appointment was rescheduled again. :(  I hate it when things just keep coming up.

On the bright side Abbey hasn’t had any more prolapses since July 17th!  She is still on her Wellness kitten food and Hills Science Diet wet food (the vet said this is high in fiber so a little gets put in her dry food).  She seems to be doing good except there is still a little diarrhea and her stool is still not as normal as it should be.   Although she is as active and as cute as ever.

Hopefully our funds will allow us to get her to the vet at the Brighton -Eggert Animal clinic soon as long as no more emergencies come up.

With being so busy I didn’t see that we received an award from Save Moki, how sweet is that!

This is why Save Moki felt we deserved the reward:

10. Cat-Scratchings - For helping to raise money for Moki and for taking such great care of Abbey.

 

How nice is that?  Thank you Save Moki for giving us this award, we are glad we could help out in a small way with Moki! 

Sorry we haven’t been posting much, I work full time, go to school full time and also take care of the kitties, so we are busy on this end.

Abbey’s appointment at the new clinic is on August 1st at 7:30, we had to change it a couple weeks ago because of the lack of funds on our part, our car had a $600 repair!  Ikes!

So we are anxious to see what the new vet will be able to tell us.  Her stool is about the same and she has the worst gas I’ve ever been around. But she is as lively as ever!

I thought it’d be cute to show everyone her new adventures with the laser pointer, this is the first time I’ve been able to get it recorded. :)  She’s so cute when she hops!   You can also seen Gizmo and Franky in the recording, Gizmo is looking like "Um hello what do you want" while Franky is just laying down relaxing.

This first one is me recording and running the laser pointer, as you can see it is kind of bumpy.  The second video is just me recording with hubby in charge of the laser pointer.

We got a good coupon in our email today, 20% off PetFoodDirect.com.  Use the code PET3547 when ordering either online or by phone.

This expires July 25, 2008, great opportunity to get some money off!

Enjoy!
