Communication with your pet is in the cards

I don’t know why it took someone so long to come up with this idea.  A perky and cheerful woman named Angelica del Mar created a special “oracle” deck of cards, similar to a tarot card deck, and the cards are designed to help you communicate with your pet.  The deck is called, “Messages From Your Animal Companion”.  The process is clear and simple and so easy to learn that even an idiot (or me!) could learn how to do it in less than five minutes.  You just ask your pet a question, pull a card or two from the deck, and the cards will give you the answer you seek.  The answer might be a simple “yes” or “no”, or it might be something more complicated, like, “My ears are bothering me so please take a look at them to see if something is wrong”.  The deck features 55 cards with 55 different scenarios, and is designed to be used with any companion animal, whether you’ve got a dog or a tarantula.  Here’s a picture I took of the deck I purchased (feel free to click it to see the larger version):

Obviously this sort of product has to be considered a “toy”, and you should never use it in lieu of veterinary advice, for example.  But you know that.  So, think of how much fun you or a friend could have with a product like this; if you already talk to your pet all the time, now your pet will finally answer you back!  I played around with it a bit with Dante and got a couple of very accurate answers, but haven’t used it with the other pets yet.  I should ask Bing how she feels about having Greg and Spiderman in the house… I hope there’s a card with cursing on it to help interpret her answer.

Flippy and I have decided we’re going to start selling these cards as a fund-raiser for Wee Paws.  I truly do think the cards make an awesome gift, and I love how original they are.  It’s a rare gift for both owner and pet (that is, until I tell you about those awesome “Cheese Please” snacks, which I’ll do in a few days, yummy).  They’re available in only one other place online that I know of, and I’ll try to keep the costs down and make ordering as simple as possible.  I’ve written an entry and put up all the instructions on how to purchase the cards at WeePaws.org, but to summarize, the cards are $30 per deck, and that includes shipping.  Elsewhere online they’re selling for over $42 once shipping is figured in, so I think our price is fair.  If you want to know more, read my entry about the companion animal cards on Wee Paws, or you can just click here to order them!
