BEEKS CATNIP BIRD: I may not be able to play with the birds that hang outside of my favorite sunbathing window but I can have high flying fun with the Beeks Catnip Bird. This bird is stuffed with catnip to get me zooming around the room and has a rattle that lets everyone know I'm in play mode while I am tossing, kicking and chewing. KONG ZOOM GROOM: I love a good grooming session and the Kong Zoom Groom has become my new favorite brush. Its soft rubber bristles feel great and help promote healthy hair and skin while removing my loose fur. Have a favorite product you want to review? Send it to askfancy@mewsletter.com |
