Review: October Meowbox

Every Wednesday I take some time to review a product, place or experience in hopes I'll inspire someone to try something new! 

Every other month I receive Meowbox by mail. The ultimate subscription for the cat lover. You have the option to get it monthly or every other month. I find getting it every other month is perfect otherwise you find yourself with a large abundance of cat toys.

Meowbox review

 

This months theme of course is among my favorite... HALLOWEEN! Or should I say MEOWLLOWEEN. I was ecstatic when I realized my subscription would fall in October because Halloween makes me so happy!!

The box stayed true to the theme, every toy had a Halloween feel to it.

- Eyeballs with bells in them.

- Jack-o-Lantern toy!

- Orange snake made from wool.

 

- and then lastly there was some treats that my kitty quite enjoyed.

This box gets a 10/10 in my books. It was already running with bonus points with the Halloween theme but the treats that my cat adored tipped the scale. The only critique I'd give this box is that none of the toys had catnip in them.

Skeleton on a stick!

This was also the first box with both Princess's name and my boyfriends cat's name (Montana). In September our families joined forces, and although there's definitely been growing pains taking 2 alpha female cats and putting them in the same home, we see the progress everyday! Catnip helps this.

Personalized boxes!

 

With Halloween around the corner I wanted to share some pumpkin carvings from last year! The theme was Pokémon: unfortunately I ran out of pumpkins before I could finish my creations but the ones I did make turned out amazing!

Sadly I sacrificed my third pumpkin to a friend who joined me.. He made the death star. It looked great but I can't help but think Squirtle would have been better!

The Sick Kit

That time of year is coming fast! So many germs so many sniffles...Working in an office and not getting sick can feel like an uphill battle! But I tried to make it a little easier this year by bringing a little comfort to the office.

Every Sunday morning at 8 am I recap the week, share what I learned and showcase some of my work!

Thanks to Wal-mart it was a pretty affordable box to put together.

It included..

- Lysol stray for your desk

- Cough drops of multiple varieties

- Lemon soothing tea

- Tylenol cold and flu DAYTIME: no one is falling asleep on my watch!

- Pain killers

- hand sanitizer

- Cough syrup

- Facial tissue

- And of course a stuffed bacon for comfort

 

There were a couple of rules along with the kit

- Anyone was welcome to use anything in the box

- But to only take what was needed

- Contribute if you could.

- And the most important: Get Better!

Rainbow wax jack-o-lantern
