Space Kitty Express Cat mom spreading herbal joy! Alternative cat herbs & toys. Something for every kitty! My cat Niko certainly becomes a space cadet around them!

My pampered cat is not easily impressed by most store bought catnip toys so I decided to work on creating some fresh alternatives. After some research, I narrowed in on a few known cat attractant ingredients and came up with this line of simple but addictive cat toys! By integrating generous amounts of catnip, lemongrass, honeysuckle, silver vine, and valerian root you'll almost certainly find som

ething your cat can't resist. Every cat has unique preferences and a certain percentage of the kitty population may not react to all or any of the ingredients mentioned, but those who do will be hooked! Cats are known to respond in euphoric or even hallucinogenic ways upon contact with the aromas of the herbs incorporated in the Space Kitty Express toys, thus inspiring the name of this shop. I buy organic and recycled materials whenever possible and opt for uncomplicated designs to reduce any risk of an overzealous kitty swallowing a loose string or bell. Besides, with these toys, it's what's inside that counts. It's also worth noting that although your kitty might develop an unusual attachment to these toys, all ingredients used are deemed safe and non-addictive. I hope that your cats will enjoy these as much as mine does. I'd recommend starting with the Blast Off Sampler Pack to provide your cat with some options and see what they prefer!

Happy Father's Day to all the pawsome cat dads out there! 😸🩷😽 This is my husband Dan with Pepper (left) and Benji (bottom right). Thank you for waking up to pick up those 2am hair balls and for always giving the kitties extra snacks when they start meowing! 🤭 As an extra fun fact, Dan is actually the reason we brought Benji in from the streets years ago! I had noticed that Benji was a friendly stray (abandoned by a neighbor) and I was feeding him in our yard. It was Dan who suggested we bring him into the family! 🏡💞 Sending love to you and your families!

The love I've gotten from all of you since Niko's loss has meant so much. The cat community is so special and I am so eternally grateful! 😭💝

All of the thoughtful comments and messages have really touched my heart. I really appreciate all of you!

I want to give a special thanks to those of you who have also sent gifts and cards. They've all made me cry and smile! 🥹💌

Thank you to for sending me a lovely set of healing aromatherapy oils and essences. I keep these close and have continued to use them when I'm feeling low. I really appreciate the love you put into what you do! 💝

Thank you to who sent me a beautiful night light with Niko's image. It is the most amazing reminder that Niko's light continues to shine! I turn on his light every evening and it means so much! ✨️ Night light made by:

Thank you to Robin for sending me a keepsake jar and statue in memoriam of Niko. I really appreciate you for thinking of me and my boy. These will be gifts that I treasure forever! 🎁

Last but not least, I need to thank .please for organizing the large group of you who came together and pitched in towards several truly incredible gifts. When I realized that 38 people donated towards sending me gifts in Niko's honor, I just crumbled! 😭😭😭 It is a very powerful and overwhelming feeling to know that all of you cared enough to contribute! This post won't allow me to tag all of you but thank you so much! Please know that the gifts have been placed around my home and serve as beautiful reminders that Niko's spirit is always near. ✨️💖🌈 The gifts sent by this group included a custom picture box with a touching photo of my angel Niko beneath a rainbow by , a custom windchime engraved with Niko's name which reminds me of him evertime the wind blows on my porch, and an incredible oil painting by . Allan, you really captured Niko perfectly in this painting, thank you!!!

Wishing lots of health, happiness and love to all of you! I hope that all the good karma comes back your way. Thank you for touching my heart with your kindness. 💖💖💖

I have honored Niko in many ways since his passing and I feel like sharing will help me process his loss. I've been mentally stuck… Niko is on my mind a lot. I know the cat community understands how hard it is. Thank you so much, you have helped me through. 💝🥹

I knew that I wanted to do something special with a portion of Niko's ashes and the timing of the solar eclipse aligned. My husband and I decided to hike a mountain in the Adirondacks to view the eclipse and honor Niko from the summit. Niko always loved views from high places and I am certain that his little eyes would have been blown away by the breathtaking views at the peak of the mountain. The eclipse was such an intensely beautiful experience and I am grateful that I was able to bring Niko along in spirit. It really felt like he was with us, I will always remember the magic of that day. ✨🌚🌞💖

I am also reminded of Niko everyday as I prepare packages for all of your sweet felines. It means so much each time I see photos and videos of your cats enjoying their Space Kitty Express toys. Niko was my inspiration and seeing your cats happy is a reminder that Niko lives on through the joy of so many other cats now. 🥲

Niko's love also lives on in my efforts to help other cats in need. Niko was once sickly and discarded, seeing him blossom changed me. I know that every cat deserves that opportunity. Making donations, volunteering, and fostering are all things that make me feel like I'm making an impact for other kitties waiting for their chance at a happier life.

I have fostered around 15 cats over the years and now felt like the time to take in another foster. I have never seen a cat this sad, it breaks my heart just looking at him. He is gentle but scared and seems to be in pain. Please keep him in your thoughts, we have a vet appointment in the morning. 🙏🏼💖

Thank you for listening. Sending love to you all! 💖💖💖✨️✨

I've been really struggling to find the words for this post.

Niko was and will always be such an incredibly important part of my life. It's no exaggeration to say that he changed who I am. He showed me what it means to really love a cat and to fully feel that love reciprocated. He was a very special little soul and we shared a deep bond.

When I brought him home in 2013, he was a scraggly, scared and malnourished young cat. He quickly became my little shadow and he just oozed gratitude. I think he felt safe for the first time and it was such a privilege to have his trust. Our connection was so singular…the way he gazed into my eyes… unforgettable. He taught me so much about patience and compassion. I am so eternally grateful that he came into my life.

There are so many moments in the day where I really feel his absence. I miss his little quirks and routines. Feeling him curled beside my head at night. His gentle paws on my face in the morning. The sound of his meows as he swirled around me. Perhaps most of all, I miss the feel of his fur, so plush and thick. My handsome boy.

Niko is also the kitty who inspired me to start Space Kitty Express. What began as a journey to make Niko happy grew into a mission of spreading joy to cats far and wide. Everytime I see a happy cat enjoying their toys and herbs, I'm reminded that Niko lives on through a legacy of joy. That really brings me some comfort. Continuing to spread happiness to other cats in his honor means so much to me.

I wish I could have had more years with him, unfortunately, he succumbed unexpectedly to metastatic cancer. He was asymptomatic until close to the end and his diagnosis came too late. It was a huge shock since he still seemed so happy and normal. On his final night, he had been weak. He woke us up with an unusual meow and I sensed it was his time. He was curled in bed with us and I was able to thank and comfort him for about an hour before he drifted off. He was surrounded by love as he took his last breaths. It was incredibly difficult but it was perhaps the gentlest goodbye I could have hoped for.

Fly high my little angel. Mommy will always love you. 🩵🌈✨️

I love being a Mission Meow business partner! Look at the amazing organizations that we have supported so far. Please check them out and consider supporting by becoming an individual donor or buying a shirt or whatever you can! Together we make a difference for cats in need! 🩵😸 Space Kitty Express

Did you know that Mission Meow gave 2 grants in our last fundraising month. Yes, not just one, but 2 organizations had their dreams come true!

But you want to know what also happened?
You (our business partners &
donors) made Mission Meow’s dreams come true too!

None of what we do is possible without donations. Yes we work hard to share our message, grow our team, add new businesses and connect with people who love cats, but zero grants are possible without money.

Thank you to EVERYONE who has contributed whether it was sharing a post, holding a fundraiser, donating merchandise, editing a video, brainstorming ideas, writing an article, interviewing for a podcast and so much more.

The expression it takes a village is so very true and we are so grateful for our Mission Meow community.

Our goal is to eventually be giving a grant every month because their are so many deserving small feline-centric organizations across the country doing amazing work. These small rescues, shelters and TNR groups are mostly volunteer run and they should be recognized and rewarded for all they do. We see you, we are grateful for you and we want to make your dreams come true.

Join us today!

Santa's workshop is still in full swing over here! Santa Paws and the elves have been very busy, this month has zipped by! There will definitely be lots of happy kitties out there this Holiday season. 😸❤🎄✨️🕎 If you still have some kitties from the nice list to grab gifts for, check out my shop at www.spacekittyexpress.com ❤ I have a few recent additions including extra durable denim kicksticks, herbal puffs, and Holiday themed "Magic Triangle" sets.

The supurrrvisors are curious, but prefer warm, dry paws so far. 😹❄️ There's also a few of my cute furriends who've shared photos with their goodies recently including , , , , and Raphi! Thank you so much to all of you! I love seeing all the sweet kitties having fun with their presents!
