Every year I have great plans to include the best-ever April Fool’s joke as part of this month’s edition of eMuse. As every year passes, the promise is made once again… for next year.
This year is different. We’ve actually got a stunt that’s been planned since last Fall. Unfortunately, it backfired a bit as you’ll soon read.
But Happy Spring to all- take advantage of this month’s Featured Items which are part of our Spring Cleaning. Most of these items were brought in by special request, and only one or two are available. For one reason or another, they never made it to the intended home, so you get to grab them for a song!
YOUR SPECIAL OFFER
Receive an additional 10% off any Featured Item
This month’s Spring Cleaning Clearance has some pretty nifty items for whoever grabs them first. It gets better for you as an eMuse subscriber. You’ll receive an ADDITIONAL 10% off the purchase of any Featured Item this month.
Just ask for the eMuse discount pricing when you place your order.

Is Your Pet’s Food Good Enough to Eat?
There are many, many ways to choose the “best” dog food.

Well, in some ways, perhaps they are. At least in part. But who has the time, or desire, to go through all these theories of what to look for, what to avoid, how to choose, or why This is better than That? Read more …

The Seattle Cat Hotel is a Friendly Place
Driving around town bringing smiles to pets and people is always enjoyable. One of the nicest perks of a day often comes from a quick chat with a client who happens to be at home when a delivery is made.
So it came as an unexpected surprise this week to find not only a friendly face at the delivery address for a new client, but a unique small business- the Seattle Cat Hotel.
Nestled off the road in the residential neighborhood of Mount Baker, Carleen Cafferty opened the facility in 2011. The business is inspected and licensed by the Seattle and King County Department of Public Health. Read more…
