We have some very sad news to share with all of you. The founder of The Pussums Cat Company and Dr. Pussums Brand Catnip, Sherri Fowler has passed away.

Many of you had the privilege of meeting Sherri over the years at crafts shows, fairs and perhaps a good yard sale… Sherri was a talented and creative artist, entrepreneur and although I didn’t know her well,I think the only thing she loved more than cats was to be around people❤️‍🩹 She left her legacy in good hands with the Shaw family when she retired in 2010.

We wish her family and friends and all who knew her peace and comfort during this time of rememberance. The family will celebrating her life sometime in July.

In her honor and her memory and with much gratitude for the legacy she created, we will be donating 20% of all sales at drpsussums.com now through June 30 to our friends PALS No-Kill Cat Shelter.

Thank you for helping us honor a life well lived.❤️‍🩹🙏

Dr. Pussums Catnip for Community Grant Announcement



On April 22, our family lost its beloved matriarch, my husband's Great-Aunt, our neighbor, and one of Dr. Pussums' most decicated and talented home stitchers, Marilyn (Mim) Shaw. Our staff enjoyed her visits, her stories and her advice and she will be deeply missed by us, our family and our community. Everything she stitched, from catnip toys to a quilt for every baby born and every couple married in her family was stitched with great love. We were gifted some of her heavy weight fabric and we knew we wanted to do somenthing special to honor her memory, her legacy and her committment to our community.

Beginning today we will be offering "Catnip for Community" Catnip Toys (all made from Aunt Mim's fabric) and 100% of the proceeds will be granted to a local community organization ( preference given to 5013cs) through a simple grant selection process. Local Community organizations from Turner, Leeds and surrounding communities must submit a written request to [email protected] by the 15th of each month and in 1000 words or less tell us why their organization could benefit from this grant money. Our staff will then select and notify the recipients. The variable grant amounts will be granted monthly until her fabric is gone ( she had quite a lot) and all toys are sold.

To get us started, our FIRST "Catnip for Community" Grant recipient for the month of June is : TURNER FOOD PANTRY North Turner Union Presbyterian Church

Please spread the word and continue to , and because and we are

***update link to their gofundme https://gofund.me/57bf14d0 ***

Friends, I know that it’s a big ask, but rural cat rescuers put their heart and souls ( and wallets) into each kitty that cross their paths. Forgotten Felines of Maine is facing a huge expense to save Timmy the love bug, and they need our help. If you are able to donate to their PayPal link or GoFundMe, please do. If not, please share Timmy’s story so he can get the life saving treatment he deserves. And spread the word to spay and neuter, vaccinate and get regular veterinary check ups to help prevent the spread of illness ❤️‍🩹

Timmy has had a rough day and tonight all he wants to do is be in momma’s lap. He is making air biscuits but beyond that he doesn’t have much energy.

Timmy was diagnosed with FIP today. Just broke my heart. 💔

After speaking with Timmy’s vet and the wonderful staff, getting advise from FoFF, receiving a few donations already made to help Timmy as well as doing a lot of soul searching, I decided to try and help Timmy. It’s always been my mission to help the cats who cross our path to the best of our ability. I must do that now for Timmy.

I am waiting to hear back from FIP Global Cats but did answer their questionnaire and send the required videos and photos to them. So now I will wait to hear what the next step is. Once I have a plan and costs I will start a GoFundMe but in the meantime the cost will be $3,000-$5,000 and treatment will be daily for at least 84 days…a big commitment. But this, as those of who know me, know I have faced more difficult challenges then this.

While I wait to hear from FIP Global Cats we would appreciate any donations you can send. I will do my very best for Timmy but I cannot do it alone. Please help. Timmy deserves this chance to live out his life healthy and happy. All my love and thank you for your prayers and support! ❤️
