We specialize in Originally Designed, Custom Handmade Pet Accessories for small and exotic animals and their owners; Check out our Adjustable Bonding Scarf, Carry Bags and Ball Pits I love my four Sugar Gliders, Cody, Caylee, Chai and Colton. I adopted my first Sugar Gliders in 2009 and have been smitten ever since. Shortly thereafter I started making my own custom fleece cage sets, bonding pouche

s, toys, scarves and other fleece Accessories for them. All designs you see are my own creation, like my unique adjustable bonding scarves (designed to fit more comfortably across the neck and shoulders) or my Snuggle Buddy Hedgehogs as a bonding aid. All these designs are usually in production/testing for quite awhile before offering them in my shop and, as I receive feed-back, I continue to adjust and improve the designs and available options. The development of the Snuggle Buddy Hedgehogs came as a way to comfort my Sugar Glider, Cody, when he sustained a tail injury and had to be quarantined. Without his cage-mates, Cody quickly began stress grooming, not eating and his recovery slowed. I made the Snuggle Buddy to be perfectly sized, soft and pre-scented by his cage-mates to comforted him long enough to help him through to a full recovery. With that success I started using them for everything, as an aid in bonding, new glider introductions, a stress reducer during vet visits...the list goes on! I just found them so useful a friend suggested I offer them for other pet owners to use as a therapy tool. I enjoy making unique jewelry that incorporates vintage pieces and I've been making jewelry of some kind since I was little and always loved creative artwork. This lead me to dabble in many types of art media over the years and eventually a Degree in Graphic Design. While I enjoy design I also really love working with my hands and creating new pieces out of discarded or unusable jewelry. I find joy in remaking these broken pieces into something new; to 'recycle' jewelry that would otherwise have been tossed, and the challenge of using older elements to create a more modern design but still keep that touch of history. Quite a bit of my jewelry incorporates vintage parts like watch gears as well as polymer clay, glass and fine silver PMC (precious metal clay). Creating jewelry started as a hobby to combine all my 'dabbling' into wearable art. I hope you enjoy my CreatedMoments.

Wanted to let people know my FIL fell yesterday and broke his hip. He is doing well, if uncomfortable, and scheduled for surgery today. I don't currently think there will be any delays in orders, but wanted to let anyone interested in knowing just in case there are any complications and I need to take some time off. Fingers crossed he does well in surgery and has a good recovery!

Our Story

We sell unique, originally designed pet supplies for small animals and exotic pets with a focus on safety, comfort and style! My loves are my four Sugar Gliders, Cody, Caylee, Chai and Colton. I adopted my first Sugar Gliders in the summer of 2009 and quickly fell in love with them! At that time, I was buying much of my accessories and cage items online. After being disappointed in the quality and styles of the current cage sets I was receiving, I decided to start sewing my own custom cage sets and eventually my own bonding pouches, scarves and accessories so I could make them exactly how I wanted them.

I am always developing and trying out new custom designs/products and looking to improve on our current ones. All designs you see are my own creation and are usually in production/testing for quite awhile before offering them in my shop. As I receive feed-back, I will continue to adjust and improve on the designs and available options. The first time I thought about sharing my designs was after one of my gliders had an accident. The creation of the Snuggle Buddy Hedgehogs came as a way to comfort my Sugar Glider, Cody, when he sustained a tail injury and had to be quarantined to heal. Without his cage-mates, Cody quickly began stress grooming, stopped eating and his recovery significantly slowed. Concerned, I wanted to create a safe version of a stuffed toy for him to snuggle with and be his recovery buddy. This lead to the development of the Snuggle Buddy Hedgehog; It was perfectly sized, soft and pre-scented by his cage-mates. As I hoped, it helped to comforted him long enough to see him through to a full recovery! With that success I started realizing you could use them for many situations and a friend suggested I share them with other owners as a bonding/therapy tool. See below for the various uses of a Snuggle Buddy!

With the initial interest in my Snuggle Buddies being overwhelmingly positive, I was encouraged to start adding other items I was making for myself, like my unique OOAK Adjustable Bonding Scarves designed to fit more comfortably across the neck and shoulder, also my wide style Bonding Pouches and Hanging Fleece Ball Pits.

I also enjoy making One-Of-A-Kind Fine Silver and unique jewelry that incorporates vintage pieces or fine gemstones.
