Kitty used to be a tiger.

The proof is in the paw:

Maybe we should change out her current collar for some Tiger stripes… she sure believes she’s a BIG cat, and a collar like that would really stroke her ego.

This week’s featured pet is an adorable yellow lab named Belle, who loves the water almost as much as she loves her stylish Pattern & Paw collars. While Belle is enjoying her 15 minutes of fame, why not submit your pet for the same honor? See the bottom of this post for more information on submitting your pet to be featured as the Pattern & Paw Pet of the Week!

P&P Stylist Says…
Belle is like a beautiful swimsuit model. We love her beautiful blond locks, and her love for the water is very obvious. We think she’d look lovely in our popular Pink Cupcake Dots Big Dog Collar, the pink lets her show off her girly side. Or let her showcase her love of all things water with the Pink Flip Flops Big Dog Collar. And after a long day at the beach, she’ll need something sophisticated for the evening. Why not the stylish Pink Vertigo Stripes Big Dog Collar? With those glamorous vertical stripes, she’ll truly be the Belle of the ball!

Continuing with the polka dots, today’s cool new collar features plenty of them, in soothing aqua blue and green. The same style as our popular Lime Green Party Dots (except blue – get it? Pool Party?), this unisex collar design lives up to it’s name. It doesn’t get any more fun than that.

When we received this in our email box last week, we couldn’t help but smile. This week’s Pet of the Week, Hoji, is seriously the coolest. cat. ever. His name is Hoji, he’s one of our favorite Pattern & Paw groupies, and, well, once you see his pictures you’ll see exactly why he’s being featured here this week. Awesome.

Name: Hoji-Cha (Hoji for short.)
Nick-Names: Hojuluh, Hoji-Man, Hoji-Boy, Hoji-ManBoy
DOB: 8-8-06
Location: Orange County, California
Favorite Food: Science Diet: Chicken & Liver.
Favorite Toy: Rolled up paper! Especially tissue paper.
Favorite Nap Spot: On top of the entertainment unit, under a lightbulb.
I love… Laying in the sun, being carried outside, when my forehead wrinkles are rubbed, sitting on my humans’ backs.
I hate… Other cats, baths, nail clippings.
Special Skills: BEING ABLE TO OPEN DOORS, playing tag, almost-fetching, not having fur, talking.
Super-Power(s): Super Speed, Super Lack-of-Hairballs, Super-Hearing.
Pattern & Paw Collar of Choice: Green and Blue Argyle! It compliments my eyes. [He has 6, though. Apple Argyle, Black Skulls, Pink Zebra Stripes, Candy AND Berry Mod, and the Red Bandana print.]
Anything else special about your pet? Other than the fact that he’s HAIRLESS, Hoji uses Pattern and Paw collars EXCLUSIVELY!

P&P Stylist Says…
Hoji has the distinct advantage of being hairless. And unlike the many cats plagued with inches of fluff that seem to obscure even the brightest collars, Hoji’s hairless neck shows off any collar beautifully. Which is obvious if you’ve seen his collar collection. (Some women have shoes… Hoji has collars.) That doesn’t however, mean that he can’t have even more.

We love Hoji’s bright green eyes. Since he’s obviously a rebel, we think the Ahoy Lime Green Skulls Cat Collar would suit him just perfectly. We also love the fact that he’s a man that is proud to wear pink… he’d love our Party Dots Cat Collar… just enough pink to be cool. Feeling festive? Why not get Hoji ready for Christmas with the Jolly Stripes Cat Collar… ho-ho-hoji!
