Anyone who has shopped at PetsMart® recently knows that Martha Stewart has introduced a new line of pet care products. After all, she is the queen of branding isn’t she? Martha Stewart this, Martha Stewart that…Martha, Martha, Martha!
Whew. As you can see, M.S. agitates us. She calls it Martha Stewart Pets but all of the models are d-o-g-s. Cats are cute, too. We make excellent models…cats are the very definition of grace.
We asked Mom to check out the M.S. pet products at PetsMart. She reported back that some of the items could be enjoyed by pets other than dogs. Mom is mostly diplomatic, though she did sneer at the pet clothing.
There are lots of toys in the product line, but many are squeak toys. Our mom hates those. If a toy rattles or has a bell attached, she'll snip it off before she lets up play with it. Besides, who wants to bat around a tennis ball when you can savor a catnip-laced mousy?

We’ll give Martha points for being an animal lover and encouraging people to treat their pets well. But we won’t ask Mom to buy any of her products until she starts using kitty models.
