The
story of Cat in the Bed |
|
as told by Linda (the cat quilter!).... |
  |
Over the Holidays,
my twin daughters asked me to make a quilt for a
kitten they were giving to a friend. I replied “Are
you crazy? A quilt for a cat!” but I thought it
was a cute idea and got carried away –making a small
fancy quilt complete with tassels! Both the friend
and her new kitten loved it (as well as her two
other cats) and soon I had requests for more.
My daughters suggested that I start a business
on the web and I thought it was a wonderful idea.
To my great fortune they are web designers and offered
to make a website. We called it “Catinthebed.com.” |
It’s been
very exciting for me to be getting orders from all
over the world – even Hong Kong and Australia! Several
of my customers have become my e-mail buddies.
I think that my customers enjoy the unique option
of designing their own beds and quilts and love
to choose from the large selection of cat and dog
prints I’ve collected over the years. I’ve found
my niche. The business is expanding – I’m now making
an assortment of beds for cats and dogs (hence my
other site Dog in the Bed ) and now catnip toys
(The Catnip Cafe ) – what fun! |

Let
me introduce you to my pets! |

I'm constantly having "bed wars" between my chihuahua Lola and my cat mateo. They love their beds! They also both like the catnip toys (hint, hint)
