Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and managed to keep the pets away from all the good stuff! 🙂 And now- da da duuuh…. let the holiday insanity commence!
You can’t pay me to go to the mall today. I don’t care how good the sale is, it’s not enough for me to deal with the scary elbow-y masses and the disheveled store racks and the fisticuffs in the parking lot. Plus, my sister is out visiting, and she has her shih tzu with her, and I think I need to get some pictures of her dog while they’re here.
I like shopping online better anyway. Instead of traffic and parking an insanity I make my UPS man come to my house like a brown shorted Santa with all the stuff I didn’t feel like dragging around the mall.
Luckily for me, animal stuff is in style this fall so there are lots of offerings that aren’t cardigans for us pet loving people. Of course most of them are more than I’m willing to spend, but if Santa wants to spring for any of them, well, he can go for it. And if I happen to see any of them show up on a Black Friday sale list, I might make an exception to my “no shopping for me till Christmas” rule. Here’s a few of my favorites:

The pets will have their own wishlists, of course. What’s on yours?

That bracelet is adorable. I love online shopping too and plan on finding all my Christmas gifts that way this year. Hope you enjoyed your holiday!
Dr. V says
I sure did! I hope you did as well!

Hiding out! The zombies are out in full force today!
Dr. V says
They sure are- and they’re the mean, fast, aggressive kind too.
Tamara says
Great finds…I found some nice presents for the pets today – online of course 🙂
Lisa W says
All of my shopping will be done online this year. I think I may have done it all online last year as well, but there is no way I want to face those crowds — especially on crutches. I’ll spend Black Friday with my pups instead, thanks! 😉
Pup Fan says
Oooh… adding all of this to my wish list too!

Hi Y’all!
You are one smart lady, Dr. V! Stay at home!
My Human hates to shop. Papa has to drag her. My collar is the one she got me the day she picked me up from the dog show. 🙁 If she won’t get me stuff, she won’t get them for anyone!
Y’all come by now,
