With the Meowlidays right around the corner and the human going out of town, we wanted to make sure we are sending this donation to Meowness asap.

It is getting harder and harder to find deals and the retail prices are somewhat ridiculous, but we feel we did ok, all circumstances considered. The items pictured retail for about $545 (yikes!) and we paid about $91 out of pocket for them.

Compared to the good ole times, that is a rather small donation, but the kitties and doggies at Meowness can use all the help they can get!

If you’d like to help them out as well, here’s the link to their current fundraiser. They are still ways away from their goal and currently do have quite a few pets with medical needs. Any donation, no matter how small helps. Meowness is completely volunteer run and we assure you, they are a very deserving organisation!!

We personally are grateful that they allow the human to use their cute holiday pictures, like this one of Jolly, who by the way is still looking for a pawesome furever home (more info here). Thanks to that, the human doesn’t get anymore stupid ideas about putting us in holiday outfits or some such nonsense, as we have made it VERRRRY clear in past years, that we are not up for any of this!!

Happy Meowlidays to all our friends, two legged, four legged and also those with wings and fins!

Emily and Linus

It has been a while since we were able to send the human shopping. She has been avoiding the stores for quite some time.

Right now, we are back in Phoenix for a little bit and are trying very hard to find some pet food deals.

This donation retails at about $490 and we spent about $118 out of pocket, which is fantastic in our book.

It is a mixed donation of cat and dog supplies, because Meowness, despite being primarily a cat rescue, also helps some dogs down on their luck.

Like Desmond, aka Dezzy, pictured below with Olivia Rose, one of the Meowness kitties.

13 year old Dezzy just got pulled from the high kill shelter and needed lots of vet care, including getting neutered at 13 years old!

Poor little guy is in rough shape. Luckily he is in good hands with the Meowness gang right now and gets lots of purr therapy from his new kitty friends as well.

We had quite the sticker shock about the increased cost of pet supplies, since the human last set foot in a store.

And yes, all those rumors about supply issues on certain pet food brands really are true. The stores aren’t stocked well and prices are ridiculous.

We are tickled pink, that we still managed to get some decent deals for our buddies at Meowness. The human was getting rusty after not having coupon shopped for so long, so it was high time to send her back out.

If you would like to support Meowness as well, please consider making a donation to them. We guarantee you they are a very deserving organisation. After all, they are the ones who founds us our humans to adopt and train =^.^=

Here’s a link to the current Meowness Holiday Fundraiser!

Also if you are in Phoenix and have some coupons for us, please reach out to the human, she can always use more coupons to help feed pets in need!

Happy Meow Year Furriends!! We hope you are all off to a good start!

We are getting ready to leave town again, so we sent the human to Meowness one last time before we hit the road.
It’s only been a few days since the last drop off and in the meantime the human didn’t have a ton of time to shop. We also have used up most of our coupons before they expired on 12/31. For those reasons , this is a relatively small donation.

The items in the picture retail for about $ 188 and our oop for them was about $76. Not our one of our greatest hauls, for sure, but at least these are some of Meowness’ favorite products to use.


So this is it for this season. Yes, we know, it literally went by in the blink of an eye. On Monday the house will start moving again with us in it.

We hope to be back in Phoenix in October to do more shopping.
In the meantime we’ll keep an eye out for a few online deals that can maybe sent to our buddies from afar!!

We’ll be in touch from the road!!

When shopping both at Petco and Petsmart lately the human saw flyers and posters for a Blue Pet food promotion.

Buy $25 in Blue Buffalo products earn a $5 digital reward

Buy $50 in Blue Buffalo products earn a $15 in digital reward

The little flyers say “Participating Retailers” so this may be working in different stores as well.

I also says “Text BLUEBUFFALO to 811811”.

We are getting coupons for Blue Buffalo this weekend in the 1/5 inserts and some people get those early. If you can get a hold of these coupons, that may make for a real good deal.

I seems like you have to text them and then submit a picture the receipt. We happened to purchase a large bag of Blue Buffalo for a donation a couple of days ago, so we’ll get the human to submit the receipt and report further.

We wish we had known about this before buying, because the dog food was about $40, had we known about that promo we could have added a few cans.

Anyways, this is a pretty short timed promo 12/26-1/3, update, duh: the human read that wrong, the promo goes until 3/1/2020 but if you purchased this products recently, you may be in luck.

Yay, we are going to end 2019 with a bang!! Petco just sent us another $10 off 30 coupon!!

We are going to send the human to the store right meow!!!
You can just show your coupon on your phone if you are heading to the store.

You can also shop online and pick up in store, no promo code needed!

We hope all our furriends are having a wonderful Meowliday season!!

Here’s the fine print:

Present coupon or mobile device and proof of Pals Rewards membership to receive this offer. Valid at Petco or Unleashed by Petco. Not valid on the purchase of ORIJEN and ACANA food and treats, the purchase of gift cards, prior purchases, salon services, dog training, vaccination services, our Self-serve Dog Wash or online. Void if copied, altered, transferred and where prohibited by law. Single-use coupon, limit one per household. Selection varies by store. Expires: 12/29/19

Say what, the Pawlidays are here? How did that happen? Meow!

Today we sent the humans to Meowness with all the goodies pictured above. This donation has a retail value of $907 and our out of pocket cost was about $296.

As we have said many times it’s a lot harder to get good deals now compared to when we first started to train our human how to shop. That said, we are still pretty proud of this donation. There were 13 buckets of litter (455 lbs), 255 lbs in dry dog and cat food, 110 pounds of wet food, plus treats, a carrier, paper towels, a heating pad and some cleaners. That’s a nice holiday donation for our favorite rescue.

The $10 off 40 and $10 off 30 deals at Petco, some personalized coupons at Petsmart along with lots of markdowns we found over the last few weeks made this possible. We even found deals at Walgreens and CVS of all places. We are hoping for a few more deals, while we are in town, so we can send the humans shopping a couple more times and make another donation in January. All paws crossed! We’ll be sending our human to our favorite Petco fur sure!

If you are still looking for a snuggle buddy this holiday season and beyond please consider adoptiong one of the many cute Meowness kitties!

The human met Baby Boy, pictured above and confirmed that he would make an amazing cuddle side kick on the couch. He’s still looking for just the right human! Maybe that’s you? Or if you cannot adopt a pet right now, you still help out shelter pets, by donating a few bucks to our buddies at Meowness, every little bit helps! There’s 4 days left on the holiday fundraiser, but you can also donate any other time using this link!

Happy Meowlidays furriends!! Hope you get to spend them with your favorite humans!
