Hello, my name is Tatjana and I come from Slovenija. Cats are part of my life for quite some time now and they became my greatest inspiration for my ceramic work.
Hi :) We are the proud slaves of 7 cats; 4 of which are over 11 years old. All were rescues/strays we took in over the years. I definitely can't imagine life without our fur babies. The only downfall to being owned by them is that they don't live as long as we do :( That part never gets easy.
Great group, I"m looking forward to participating!
I'm new to this team ^^ I live in Sweden with my lovely fiance and our three furballs. One is the oldest he is black and an orientel shorthair mix, he is 8 yrs and loves to take long walk in the summer. The two younger ones are 2 yrs old and are brother and sister. The female is fat and just likes to chill while the male is full of mischievouness.
Hi, I have three lovely kitties. Two tortoiseshell females, Leia and Kiki and a big fat cuddly black and white long hair called George. They all come into my studio each day to sleep on their own chairs with their own blankets while I paint and then sit with me for an hour's tv viewing - Leia particularly loves wildlife programmes, and then it's off to bed for a nice long sleep. And we all snore!
Hi my name is Sarah. me and my fiancé have two adorable Devon Rex cats, "Luke" and "Leia". They are so crazy and cute! They are twins, how ever Luke has almost no fur! Which makes him look a little like a sphynx, at times.
I'm a full time goldsmith (http://www.designmineur.se) with my own brand of wedding jewellry, mostly wedding rings, "Design Mineur".
I while back i also launched "LovePaws" which is a collection of handmade jewellry where part of the income goes directly to carefully selected shelters for homeless cats in Sweden. It all started as a small project to try help a burned down shelter financially to rebuild them self. It was a success, the word spread and today it's really getting big.
Knowing there's alot of animal friends around the world we decided to try going global through Etsy! So please, feel free to take a peek in our shop here on Etsy! :)
Oh, everything I create and sell is of course handmade!
Hi! I'm Laura and I'm new to Etsy. I live in the Netherlands with my husband and my three lovely cats Singha, RIta and Cleo. I'm quite obsessed with cat themes, I like anything with a cat on it so I had to be careful when selecting the fabrics for my shop :-)! As you can see, the name of my shop and logo is after my oldest cat Cleo, she's always been a source of inspiration! Singha loves to climb on our shoulders while we are walking around and she tries to lick our face, Rita likes to lay upside down on the bedroom carpet before we go to bed asking for attention and Cleo is always ready to lick the bath after we are finished showering and complains when she gets kicked out of our bedroom (because she has the right doesn't she?). If I'm upstairs they are upstairs, if I'm in the kitchen they are in the kitchen, if I start walking outside they all follow me, certainly our life would be so much boring without them!
Hi Everyone- I just joined this team! We have 10 cats and two dogs - and the dogs know they are not in charge. :) We also rescue and find homes for feral kittens that are born in our area.
My daughter, Violet, creates the kitty necklaces in our Etsy shop and donates the proceeds to a local cat shelter, Passion 4 Paws.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone in this "kitty zone"!
I own a nice ginger cat named Oliver (but called more frequently Butterscotch or Ollie) He rules the house! We give him a special water dish and feed him Whiskas Temptations.
Hi guys! Thanks for having me! :) Although my shop is all about dog collars, I do have an awesome cat whom I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! His name is Max and he is the coolest cat ever!
Helloooo from south Dakota! I started joined your wonderful group last week. I'm currently owned by 5 cats, 2 Chesapeake Bay Retrievers and 2 fish tanks. I've been employed at my local Humane Society for 5.5 years and just opened my own cat boarding store. So I guess you could say animals are my life and passion. :)
Hello, I am owned by a ginger distressed alpha ex-male cat. strangely do not have anything with the cats knitted pattern. But I crotcheted some toys for him as he loves bright red and watched suspiciously my yarn moving. He tried knitting himself but aparently lacked patience to cast off.
I am Claire and I currently live in Wales with my fiance and 2 cats. 1 is a fluffy bengal x called Cali who loves cuddles, the second is 1 year old ginger Hamish - he is a total nutcase!
You might be able to spot them in a couple of my products ;)
I love cats and all animals =) I own 5 cats of my own. I deeply cherish and care of them all. I love to see other cat artists works, and love to be inspired.
I also have a horse, a dog and a bunny and all of these guys mean the world to me <3
My shop mainly specializes in horses, but I do add the random, cat, dog, and bunny item =)
I'm a new member of your team. My name is Anna, I'm from Estonia (Europe). I live with my husband and a british tabby cat. Her name is Vivien, we took her from the shelter 3 years ago. Now I can't imagine our life without Viven. :) Really smart and talkative cat. :) Always 'helps' me with my paintings. :) Hope you'll find a minute to take a look at 'our' shop. :) Have a nice day!
Hi! I am a crazy cat lady with two of my own, Angie (in photo) and Bon Bon. I recently learned to knit, and one night Angie decided to steal a square that I was working on. It was such a hit, that I decided to start my own cat toy line called Yarnamathings. They are unusual hand knit and sewn toys with different shapes and embellishments (like shakers, jingle bells, sparklies, etc.). I hope to eventually get the business running so that I can donate some proceeds to help stop cat abuse and help those in need. :-)
Hi, my name is Camille, I have 3 cats and they run the show. I don't sell anything related to cats although you are welcome to visit my shop, but I like to browse for cat stuff so here I am. :)
Hello! My name is Melanie. I'm currently living in Tucson, AZ with my boyfriend. We have 2 cats(Shelby and Luna), a redfoot Tortoise (Torta), a corn snake (Professor Snake), and two hermit crabs (Dingus and Doofus). As you can see we are true animal lovers. Ever since I was a child, I've always had an interest in little critters. Especially living out here in Tucson, there's endless amounts of wildlife everywhere I go. Over the past 5 years or so I've developed a passion for art. My most strong artistic ability is working with acrylic paint on canvas. Being a Pisces my most favorite things to paint are oceans themes(Mostly fish and octopus). Anyway, If you'd like to find out more about me just follow me on Facebook and Twitter: www.facebook.com/turtlessoupetsy www.twitter.com/hippomoose33 :)
Hello animal lovers, I am new to the team, Y, because I love animals just like you do. I am the proud parent of the girl pictured here. See is smart, witty, comical and sometimes grouchy, but is my best friend and loves me so to the extent, she will not let anyone pet her but me.
Isn't funny how a furry friend can be so loyal and give so much unconditonal love to another species (humans)
We as a society being the supreme race need to learn so much
We are Leslie and Stacey.... artists, crafters, and animal advocates. We LOVE animals, especially cats, hence all the cat stuff. :D As well as being cat toy makers.... Les is a photographer and I paint. We are often involved with local animal rescues and use our art/crafts to help cats in need whenever we can.
Les is from originally Chicago and I am from Victoria, B.C. We now live in Reno, Nevada, with our kitty cats Mischa and Sammy.
