Save Christmas $$ 2 ways at Pet Stuff Resale


 The prices are good at PSR anyway, so the first way to save is easy.

Often items at PSR are new or look new so would make great gifts. (I am not recommending to hide that a gift is recycled.) That saves you money on your shopping list. Here's a perfect example.
This portable drinking bowl looks new and is 8.99 on Waterrover.com. It is hands free, leak free and excess water goes back into bottle.
 A great stocking stuffer at Pet Stuff Resale for 5.00.







This finch cage is sold at pet places as a parakeet cage, but it is too small even for one keet. For an animal used to flying, to live their whole life(or even most) in a cage this small is just flat wrong. 
This is part of how Pet Stuff Resale recycles. The tray was missing from the silver cage when I bought it, so I added a tray and wire base from another cage that was too rusted for me to sell.That went to metal recycling and this cage is repurposed. Paper covers most of the bottom anyway. I don't recommend pets for Christmas, but this could be an upgrade for a current cage. It can also be used for a hospital or transport cage.  16.00 at PSR








 Actually there is a 3rd way to save money!Purchasing something used as basic and practical as the reptile tank pictured at the bottom right corner frees up spending for other pet items you may want new.





Savannah Carolina was MOST uninterested in modeling this shell pink sweater. She weighs about 9 1/2 lbs,  it actually fit Lizbet the 13 lb dachshund better. Lizbet also enjoys wearing them:) This was custom made and only 4.00.

Both Savannah Carolina and Lizbet are still looking for their permanent homes.





This plaid tote is in excellent condition; another great gift idea for a cat owner/foster. It is 13.00
29/30 gal reptile tank and stand

Doggie items in at Pet Stuff Resale





With cold weather approaching, childrens sleeping bags make great, inexpensive dog beds.
Both big dogs and little dogs love them. Min Pins and chihuahuas will burrow in them in July!
Boogie the Yorkie/escape artist is looking for a very patient home with a buddy dog. He says male dogs like pink also.

8.00









It is difficult to find very W I D E gates. This one is neat because the  two connectors are flexible, so it doesn't have to be a straight line barrier. This flexibility allows this to be used in multiple ways and in non traditional sized openings. It is a discontinued gate from the Cardinal Gate company, but you can peruse the website to see how expensive metal gates are new. This one looks new and it only 70.00. It extends up ot 10 feet. It is 28" tall.




This HUGE PetMate portable pet home is great for big dogs or several smaller ones, as long as they don't chew. Most softsided or mesh crates are unsellable due to chew holes, but this one has been repaired almost professionally.

As always, Pet Stuff Resale does not cover up or minimalize used conditions, this is marked down  because of it. It is 41x29x32. It also comes with a cover and tie down stakes for camping. (I would not recommend using anything soft like this when camping.) I think it is great for traveling for over night sleeping and even some post surgery cases.
50.00 sold





Fizzie the dachshund LOVED this as soon as her mom plopped it on the floor. It is a soft car chair and was only 6.00 at Pet Stuff Resale. Thank you Gail, for being a repeat customer! Fizzie is a former foster of mine who is now 12 years old we think.

Kirby and Rocky also shoppers at Pet Stuff Resale

This is a continuation of the previous post; same family!
Kirby, on the left and Rocky the chihuahua are consumer testing the oh so chic traveling cube their momma purchased
recently. Note it even has a drawer below for stashing travel
treats, sunglasses and sun screen for those beach moseys
in their stroller.
I so enjoy being the personal shopper for this family!
(The promised photo of Bijoux on the former toddler bed/now big dog bed was corrupted and will not download.)

Pet stores are out to seduce you (and your credit card!)


It's no secret that people have gone bonkers over their pets and go to extremes buying "stuff" for their "babies". I sneaked a peek at the cash register in a pet store when a woman adopted a kitten from a rescue group; over 400.00 in necessities and assorted foo foo!

I've read the various articles dissecting the probable causes of this phenomenon
and we know it will escalate with the help of manufacturers presenting the latest
"have to have" item.

Pet Stuff Resale provides a little common sense before you pull out your card.
The picture says it quite clearly-don't buy a mesh anything until you know the pet won't chew thru it....This goes for any pet, not just puppies...My green wing macaw
needs a concrete transport carrier!
The same logic goes for crating; don't use a nice pillow or crate pad initially
in the crate. Wait and see if they chew the old towel. I'd rather lose a sale
than have a customer buy something inappropriate for their pet.
