Shop


Our online store is hosted by Zazzle and can be visited here.

 

10% of profits go to a federally registered feral cat rescue charity. 


We take the photograph, design it onto a product, and receive a royalty from a sale, while Zazzle takes care of the business side of things - manufacturing, shipping, and keeping the customer satisfied. You can learn more about how Zazzle works here.   

 

All products are completely customizable: you can rearrange our kitten image or our text, you can add your own images or text, you can change colours, and so much more.

How to find what you are looking for

 

Each photo is titled with the kitten's foster name, plus a number. Each photo has its own category on the store.

 

 

The store can also be explored by searching the products in a particular department (such as the Accessories department, which further breaks down into bags, belt buckles, buttons, etc.)

 


 

There is also a search box for keywords (for example, if you adopted a kitten we raised, and you know from the paperwork that accompanied her adoption that her foster name was Cinnamon, you can enter “Cinnamon” into the search box and all the products that have that tag – which is any product with her image on it - will be

displayed).

 

Note that there is a filter on the store with the settings of safe, moderate, or off.

 

 

When looking at a product, a selection of different styles of that product will appear, and you can explore the options.

 


Check to make sure the design is placed perfectly on each item before you order it

 

Customers must make sure all images and/or texts are arranged exactly as they want them to be on the object before ordering. Please check that image placement is correct by clicking the multiple views of the object to see it from all angles.

 

We made the templates as carefully as we could, but once a new image is ‘rolled out’ onto the predefined template for an object, there is a possibility that some element won’t look perfect. Each photo gets rolled out onto numerous pre-set items in a fairly automatic manner, and there isn’t time for us to scrutinize every object from every angle, so that has to be left to the customer to do as they are customizing their item. (This is more of an issue with certain objects over others, such as wall clocks where there is always going to be the clock hands in the center of the item.)

 

Don’t worry, it’s really simple to check over a product and make sure it looks good.

 

 

Click on the “Customize it!” button to check that there is not crucial text or image that is outside the red lines. All features of the design can simply be clicked and dragged exactly where the customer wants them to be. And more editing can be done using the panel of tools on the right hand side of the screen.

 

 

Note: A watermark appears on any image when it is displayed large (the word “zazzle” is repeated over the photo). This watermark is just to protect the intangible property from theft online, and it does not appear on the physical product.

 


Image quality

The photographs that have been uploaded to the online store and used to design merchandise are the largest version of the files, the highest quality of the image.

 

On this website, if a photograph is displayed it is a smaller version of the file, a lower quality image. This is mostly to protect our intangible property. We do not want our images to be taken and used. The other reason that photos on this website have been reduced is so that the pages load quickly.


Photoshoot standards

All kittens are happy, healthy, warm, and safe when they are photographed. If the kitten were to be unhappy, then we would be unhappy, because we are first and foremost the caregiver, and only secondly the photographer. (And besides, kittens who are unhappy look unhappy in photographs, which defeats the purpose of taking their picture). Often they think they are just playing when a photoshoot is happening, while we stay quick on our feet and hope to capture a well-lit, in-focus moment when a kitten stays still for a few seconds.
