Pet art
Something for both the dog and the cat fan today. These pictures caught my eye last week from Dutch artist and etsy seller edart. A trip to his website is a journey well rewarded. These shots were my particular favourites and I discovered the first one via Tilda
You might have seen these circulating over twitter recently from The Daily Tail and although at first you might worry for the animals, you can relax as it's actually just some clever bod with photoshop.

Tagged for a good cause
Last week I was tagged by a new blogger buddy SadieShihtzu who tasked me with showing the 10th photo of my poopers that had been featured on 'under the blanket'. Also, I am required to tag 5 other people and, as it is a Worthy Wednesday, I thought it a good idea to introduce you to 5 peeps that have a similar ethic to blanket in that they help animals and/or the environment. But first of all here is my picture of Milly and Poppet, you can read about them and see pictures here.
Here are the 5 tags:
1. Photographer Melissa McDaniel. Not only does she take fantastic photos of deaf and rescue dogs for her books, she also raises money to help them. I have been watching Melissa with interest for some time and am always impressed by her tireless efforts to raise much-needed funds.
Melissa became a deaf-dog advocate as soon as she adopted her deaf border-collie mix Sadie from a local shelter. She was dropped off at the shelter, along with her littermates, after her owners discovered their dog’s puppies were all deaf. Thousands of dogs are put to sleep each year because they are deaf. Three to four million dogs and cats are euthanized in shelters across the U.S. each year. The dog photo books are raising awareness and helping to make a positive change.
She is holding a fundraiser now, so please visit her site here and help The Best Friends Animal Society. You can see a great selection of her work on the photo books site.
2. Like Kittysville makes really cool kitty beds!
She makes the beds from a lifelong collection of retro fabrics which are matched only by a lifelong devotion to her collection of rescued and formerly feral cats. View the kitty beds here
A sizable chunk of her sales goes toward an endless supply of cat food and spay/neuter/vet care for the dozens of feral and abandoned cats that find their way to the Kittysville porch!
3.You gotta love Eco-pup. This BC based company specializes in luxury organic and eco-friendly designer dog clothing and accessories for your pets. Their products are made with love from organic, natural and recycled materials Read all about their recycling and see the really cool gear here Visiting the blog is a must as Poppet is the star attraction, for the moment.
4.Ground Cloud is a blog written by a beautiful white cat called Little Guy (and other cute names). Little Guy posts stunning pictures of himself and every Friday has a BCSPCA adopt a cat day. So great effort Little Guy!
5.Doggybytes is a very informative blog and is great for really useful tips on everything to do with caring for your dog. Its purpose is to provide useful dog/puppy related information, product recommendations and entertainment. Jim favours “environmentally friendly” dog products and in his words (quote) "I love our environment as much as I love Sweety my Border collie". He also has adopted Zeus, a stray Pit Bull from our local SPCA.

These are some of my favourite bloggers giving us all a great example to follow. Watch out for Worthy Wednesdays where I'll be continuing to to discover and feature more like them.
