Let me begin this post by saying that when it comes to monthly subscription boxes for cats, I am NOT a fan. Why? Because the market is saturated with them, and the novelty wore off for me nearly the instant they came on the scene.
But...a monthly subscription box created exclusively for the tasteful and oh so savvy Cat Lady? Now we're talkin'!! When I first heard about the CatLadyBox my ears perked up! Now THIS I had to see!
Created by Dorian Wagner, one of the most power-packed, adorable, clever, caring and talented cat ladies that I have had the pleasure of knowing since I first began blogging in 2009. I had the pleasure of meeting her at my first BlogPaws Conference in 2011 and our paths have crossed a number of times since. Just KNOWING she created this treat for cat loving ladies, I KNEW it would be a hit...AND IT IS.
I first learned of Dorian when I followed her blog, Your Daily Cute , a blog dedicated to cute cat videos. It was one that was always on my "must read list." Dorian also created the popular and hugely successful Santa Paws Drive which takes place every holiday season and provides monetary and toy/spay neuter and supply/treat donations to deserving shelter cats all over the land! Not one to rest on her laurels, Dorian went on to create and execute a brilliant pet transport group, Cute Transport Network, which helped shuttle many cats, to new forever homes and no-kill shelters. Over 400 cats have been saved!!
When I was given the honor/opportunity to blog about the August Crazy CatLadyBox, I could barely contain my excitement. (The CrazyCatLadyBox is one of two boxes that you can choose from). The CRAZY CatLadyBox ($39.99) includes crazy cat lady items hand-picked for you PLUS at least 2 surprises just for kitties! Everyone gets in on the fun! In the regular CatLadyBox ($34.99) you'll receive 2-3 cat-themed items carefully handpicked by a team of crazy cat ladies just for you! From jewelry and shirts to home decor, books, mugs and more, these are unique things you won't find in any regular store.
From the moment the box arrived at my doorstep I noticed the special touches and attention to detail that are oh-so Dorian!!! From the sticker on the box, to the hand-written heart shaped note on the letter that describes all of the contents in the box in explicit detail, and how the subscription program works, this box did NOT disappoint.
What I didn't realize until I read the letter, was that if receiving a box every month is not your "thang", you CAN skip a month! Why you would want to, is beyond me, but if you need to, YOU CAN! You can upgrade, downgrade, change billing, shipping, shirt size etc., all from the account section of the site.
Subscribe to CatLadyBox and each month they will surprise you with a box of unique finds for cat lovers, exclusive members-only cat lady items and cat-themed creations you'll be proud to flaunt! There is nothing obnoxious or "tacky" in this box! Every single month, they will hand-select a fabulous assortment of high-quality cat-themed jewelry, stylish accessories, stylish home or office decor, makeup, books, glassware, and more, and deliver them right to your door (free shipping in the U.S. and only $6.95 to Canada!). It's like getting the most purrfect presents, over and over again!
