New Products for summer 2012

Barkitty is now more than 2 months old and is already evolving and changing to suit our customers needs. New for the summer are cosy bags, Zigwagz personalised collars (as sold in Harrods) and Lily’s Kitchen Forget-me-knot organic treats.

Joy from Scrufts has just sent a new range of handmade collars, including the iconic ‘Rovers Return’ leopard print set! Perfect for ‘unleashing’ the Bet Lynch in you! £30.00 for the collar and lead set.



Zigwags collars are handmade by Sharon, and you are able to choose from a range of sizes and colours. Finally, we will embellish the collar with your pets name in silver letters or diamante. Photographs do not do justice to how beautiful these collars are.



The travel pod arrives this week for £39.99. It is a really versatile product ideal for car journeys.



The Gemma Correll bags are back in stock after much demand. So many celebrities have been seen wearing the ‘Pugs not Drugs’ t-shirts, and the bags are a great alternative; £11.00.



The Lily’s Kitchen treats are a firm favourite in the shop – and their new ‘Forget-me-nots’ are a fabulous addition to the range. Organic, low-fat and best of all raise money for Battersea Dogs & Cats. Barkitty are proud to be one of the first stockists of these.



Of course, Barkitty is still stocked with the exciting range including Pet London, Puppia harnesses, Joules pet beds, Hing bowls, Pet Head shampoos, Becobowls, House of Paws and Mutts & Hounds for your treasured dog and cat.

Something's not quite right here...

The meaning of dogs & cats in dreams

After a strange dream about my cat I found this info on a website...

DOGS IN DREAMS

To see a dog in your dream symbolizes intuition, loyalty, generosity, protection, and fidelity. The dream suggests that your strong values and good intentions will enable you to go forward in the world and bring you success. The dream dog may also represent someone in your life who exhibits these qualities.

Alternatively, to see a dog in your dream indicates a skill that you may have ignored or forgotten. If the dog is vicious and/or growling, then it indicates some inner conflict within yourself. It may also indicate betrayal and untrustworthiness. If the dog is dead or dying, then it means a loss of a good friend or a deterioration of your instincts.

To dream that a dog bites you on the leg suggests that you have lost your ability to balance aspects of your life. You may be hesitant in approaching a new situation or have no desire to move forward with your goals. Alternatively, it symbolizes disloyalty.

To see a happily barking dog in your dream symbolizes pleasures and social activity. You are being accepted into some circle. If the dog is barking ferociously, then it represents your habit of making demands on people and controlling situations around you. Are you "barking" too many orders? Alternatively, it could also indicate unfriendly companions.

To see a dog chasing its tail or running around in circles in your dream implies that you are not handling a situation in an effective way. You are spending too much time on fruitless labor.

To dream that you are buying a dog indicates your tendency to buy your friends or buy compliments and favors. Alternatively, it suggest a need for you to find companionship. If you are being guided by a dog, then it suggests that you are having difficulties in navigating out of a situation or problem.

To dream that you give or send your dog away indicates that the decisions and choices you are making now may be misinterpreted as disloyalty. You have to do what is right for you and not worry about what others think of the decision. Alternatively, it signifies rejection of friendship.

To dream that you are dressing up your dog signifies your attempts to cover up your own character flaws and habits.

To see a black colored dog in your dream symbolizes the shadow aspect of a friend. The dark side of someone close to you is being revealed and you are able to see through to their true intentions.

To dream that a dog is eating a snake implies that a close friend is trying to prevent you from making a bad decision

To see a dog with two heads in your dream means that you are hyper vigilant about your surroundings. On the other hand, the dream may also mean you need to be more aware of what is around you.

Also consider the notions associated with the word dog, such as loyalty ("man's best friend") and to be "treated like a dog".

CATS IN DREAMS

To see a cat in your dream symbolizes an independent spirit, feminine sexuality, creativity, and power. It also represents misfortune and bad luck. The dream symbol has different significance depending on whether you are a cat lover or not. The cat could indicate that someone is being deceitful or treacherous toward you. If the cat is aggressive, then it suggests that you are having problems with the feminine aspect of yourself. If you are afraid of the cat in your dream, then it suggests that you are fearful of the feminine. The dream may be a metaphor for "cattiness" or someone who is "catty" and malicious. If you see a cat with no tail, then it signifies a loss of independence and lack of autonomy.

To dream that you cannot find your cat highlights your independent spirit. You need to allow yourself to be free and not let anyone or anything hold you back.

To dream that a cat is biting you symbolizes the devouring female. Perhaps you are taking and taking without giving. You may be expressing some fear or frustration especially when something is not going as planned. To dream that you are saving the life of a cat implies that you are reclaiming your independence and power.

To dream that a cat is scratching you suggests that you are feeling threatened.
To see a black cat in your dream indicates that you are experiencing some fear in using your psychic abilities and believing in your intuition. You may erroneously associate the black cat with evil, destruction, and bad luck. In particular, if the black cat is biting, clawing or attacking you, then the dream means that you must acknowledge what your intuition is trying to tell you. You can no longer ignore it. Do not be afraid to face the situation. If you see a white cat, then it denotes difficult times.

To dream that a cat killed a spider suggests that you are expressing your femininity in a seductive and cunning manner rather than in an overtly and almost destructive way.

To see or hear a cat being killed implies that you are lacking autonomy and independence in some area of your life. Alternatively, the dream means that you are refusing to recognize your feminine power.
