satisfy your pet's holiday wish list and support the aspca, plus a #giveaway

Isn't it great to kill two birds with one stone?

Well, not literally...you know we're all about loving on birds, but you know what I mean. This holiday season, the ASPCA is making it easy to give to your own pets and pet lovers and to pets in need. They have put together a fantastic list of gift ideas for pets and pet lovers as well as some fun DIY gift ideas.

One of my favorite DIY gift ideas presented by the ASPCA won't cost you a dime and will be loved by nearly any pooch. Check out the instructions for making a t-shirt chew toy:

The color possibilities are endless, and it's free, so why not make a bunch for your dog to give to his furry friends?

For your feline friends, the ASPCA has suggested this awesome and affordable Catnip Toy 6-Pack. The pack includes two each of three distinctly different mouse styles, and a portion of the purchase price directly benefits the ASPCA's efforts in rescuing, rehabilitating and finding loving permanent homes for animals all across the United States. Other great gift ideas that benefit the ASPCA include:

• Dog 10-Piece Gift Set

• Taj Ma Hound Doggy Donuts

• Cat Play Ball

The ASPCA has some great gift ideas for pet lovers, too! 

If you're looking for something with a little bling for that pet lover in your life, Zales has a magnificent ASPCA collection. With prices starting under $50, these beautiful pieces are definitely worth checking out.

Other gift ideas for the pet lover in your life include:

• Walkers Shortbread Cookies

• Commonwealth Toys Plush Pets

In the spirit of giving, the ASPCA has offered Well Minded readers the chance to win an ASPCA Holiday Gift Pack! The gift pack includes:

holiday shopping with #Pet360.com

Has your pet created his holiday wish list?

If so, you can most likely find everything his heart desires at Pet360.com. I love Pet360.com because not only is it an online retailer (so we can skip the crowds at the mall), the website also offers advice, news, and discussions. So it's not all about selling you on stuff, it's about caring for your pet and making sure you can compare products and make the best decision for your pet at a great price. When you search for something, you'll not only get the product matches, but related articles and discussion links. I'm big on research when I purchase something, so I really dig the fact that I can get all the information I need and shop in one place.

You don't have to register to shop at Pet360.com, but, the experience becomes even better, if you do. When you register, you add your pet's information to the site so you can get customized recommendations. Once you make your purchase, Pet360.com will remember what you purchased for each pet, and will even give you an option to set up auto-ship for greater convenience. Just don't give your pet the password, or he might auto-ship himself the holiday loot each month.

Pet360.com offers a 100% Guarantee, so if Fluffy changes her mind about that deluxe pet bed you thoughtfully put under the Christmas tree, you can return it within 30 days. 

So, get to shopping, and get free shipping!
