Lulu's Mewsings for July and August, 2008
Hello everyone,
We have been very busy this first half of 2008!
RETAIL SALES ON PET SCRIBBLES DISCONTINUED
In January, we discontinued the retail portion of Pet
Scribbles (selling single and boxed cards directly to
consumers), and switched our focus to the wholesale markets
of the pet and giftware industries. Our decision was based
on not wanting to compete with the stores that carry Pet
Scribbles cards, whether in their brick-and-mortar stores
or via their online boutiques.
We know that there are many of you who enjoyed the ease of
purchasing your cards online, and we are planning on more
boutiques carrying our cards on their e-commerce sites. As
more online stores are added, we will post these in our
Retail Locations section of our website.
As always, if there is a store or boutique in your area
that you wish carried Pet Scribbles, please let us know and
we will be happy to contact them. You can e-mail your
suggestions to: lulu@petscribbles.com. We are so thankful
for the many suggestions already received, and we are happy
to report that we are now carried in stores in 23 states,
with more on the way!
THE FATE OF THE PURRSONALIZED CARD SERVICE
Another change with Pet Scribbles is that we are ending our
Purrsonalized Card Service. While we still think it is a
great idea, quite honestly there has not been much
interest. The cost of maintaining the Purrsonalized portion
of Pet Scribbles' website is outweighing the interest shown
by the public. Perhaps we will bring this idea back
someday. We hope - for those of you who have enjoyed using
this service - that you understand our decision.
ANNOUNCING "PURRTEA" BY PET SCRIBBLES!
For those of you who are store and boutique owners, we want
to let you know that we will be unveiling a new line of
greeting cards soon. Lulu, our Chief Feline Officer (CFO),
finds this impossible to comprehend, but we have store
owners who have requested Victorian-style cards without
pets on them. And so Pet Scribbles is pleased to offer
"Purrtea" by Pet Scribbles. They are available on the
Wholesale Catalog of our website, and will be on the main
section of the website soon!
ON A PURRSONAL NOTE...
Lulu's big brother Matisse (aka Mr. Boo-ber) is currently
recovering from major surgery to remove a large tumor that
was in his lungs. Cats have six lung lobes, four on one
side and two on the other, that make up the lungs. The
tumor affected three of Matisse's lobes and all three had
to be removed.
Although the tumor was able to be successfully removed, our
sweet mush of a kitty has been diagnosed with feline
lympho-sarcoma. We are not sure what his future holds, or
how long his present and future will be. The doctors talk
of his survival in "weeks and months" instead of years,
they told us. We are making him as comfortable as possible
while he recovers from his surgery.
Lulu misses wrestling with him. And Aliza, who considers
herself to be Matisse's girlfriend, misses snuggling with
him. They are currently separated by a pet gate while
Matisse recovers as he can't have any activity or excessive
playtime yet. Matisse enjoys their visits and chats through
the pet gate, but is also enjoying his own room, complete
with comfy bed, tv with his favorite programs, and peace
and quiet! I'm sure that everyone says this about their own
pets, but our Matisse is the sweetest mush of a lovebug
around, and we are helping him to enjoy every moment that
he can.
CONCLUSION
Lulu asks that everyone be mindful of the high humidity and
hot temperatures, as they can wreak havoc on pets. Make
sure your pet has fresh water at all times, has some shade
if outdoors, and a fan or air conditioning when indoors.
Many pets have "fur coats" that they have to wear
year-round, so don't forget to keep them cool!
Thanks for reading!
Sincerely,
Laura, Owner
and
Lulu, Chief Feline Officer
