Did you know you can add a matching catnip pillow toy to any cat collar order? ๐ผ๐
Diesel LOVES catnip!
I ordered some new collars from Kira's Pet Shop and I always get a catnip toy too. They are well loved in this household!
Kira's Pet Shop is a handmade pet accessory business specializing in fun, colorful cat & dog collars!
(10)
Kira's Pet Shop began as a way to raise money for our dog Eva's knee surgery in 2015. The shop started with just our bandanas, which are the first of their kind: they attach over your pet's collar with velcro and include a slot in the middle for ID tags to hang through. We have since expanded to also offer dog & cat collars, leashes, hand-stamped ID tags and more! And as always, every single item is handmade individually from start to finish in our smoke-free, pet-friendly home. :)

My little home studio is finally coming together! Every order is measured, cut, ironed, sewn & assembled by me here at home or at ๐
The new website is LIVE! ๐ฅณ I've been wanting to do this for the 8 years I've been selling on Etsy, and it's finally happening! Check it out at www.kiraspetshop.com (link in bio) ๐
I'm still working on adding all the listings to the site, so it's just dog collars at the moment, but you can take 20% OFF at checkout with code GRANDOPENING ๐ถ
I NEVER do sales like this, so be sure to jump on this while it lasts thru Sun 2/5! ๐
24 new dog collar patterns now available! ๐ Scroll through for a preview, and find the rest at www.kiraspetshop.com ๐ถ
Our buckle engraving upgrades are now done in house!! ๐ Up until now we've been sourcing them from a production partner out of state. Now that we have the ability to engrave in-house, the turnaround time on these will be shorter AND we've lowered the price! ๐ถ Now you can add engraving to any buckle collar order for just $9.99! Visit us at www.kiraspetshop.com (link in bio) โจ
Meet our newest addition! ๐ธ Some of you may remember I used to offer hand-stamped pet tags; I stopped because I just didn't enjoy the process. But this new machine will enable me to offer precision laser engraved tags, AND I'll be able to do buckle engraving in-house (which until now, I've been outsourcing from a maker in another state). This will save SO much time, and I'll be able to lower my price on the buckle upgrade, too! ๐
I'm taking some time to play around and learn the best settings before listing anything, but scroll to the second photo for a preview of what I'll be able to offer โก๏ธ
Thanks so much for all your support over the last 7+ years, and a big thanks to everyone who purchased from me at the Garlic Festival - YOU made this investment possible! ๐
The Hudson Valley Garlic Festival is NEXT WEEKEND, Oct 1 & 2 at Cantine Field in Saugerties, NY. ๐ง I'll be there with plenty of handmade cat & dog collars & bandanas, so if you're in the area, be sure to come check it out! ๐ธ

Hey friends, don't forget! The Hudson Valley Garlic Festival is next weekend (Oct 2 & 3) at Cantine Field in Saugerties, NY. Come get your fill of garlic, and visit me if your cat or dog is in need of some new gear! ๐ถ
Some tips for the festival: Bring cash! There's just one ATM onsite, and some vendors have had issues taking credit cards in the past due to cell service getting overloaded. And bring your own bag! I'll have paper ones to give out if needed, but you'll want to stock up on a bunch of goodies, so I really recommend just bringing a reusable tote! And most of all, HAVE FUN! ๐
Who's coming to the HUDSON VALLEY GARLIC FESTVAL this year? ๐ง I've been busy prepping for it (pictured) and am SO excited to be there!! Hope to see some of our local friends ๐ถ Oct 2nd & 3rd at Cantine Field in Saugerties, NY ๐พ
Tickets for Hudson Valley Garlic Festival are on sale now! Save $$ by pre-purchasing your tickets online, and mark your calendars for the first weekend in October ๐ถ We're excited to participate again this year, and hope to see you there!!
Our most popular galaxy pattern is nearly gone, save for a few more cat collars' worth - but check out this new one we've got listed in the shop! ๐ And don't forget, every collar is handmade to order based on your choice of size and hardware. 's pup here is sporting our black metal martingale option! ๐
Coming soon! One-of-a-kind cat toys, made with hand-printed fabric from our friend ๐ Ripley makes all of her fabrics by hand here in her studio in Catskill, using a traditional Turkish ebru marbling technique. She's been kind enough to share her scraps with us to repurpose into fun & unique cat toys. Each one is stuffed with polyfil and organic catnip, and no two are alike! ๐ธ
BACK IN STOCK! ๐ถ This fabric had gone out of print, and I couldn't find more anywhere - until this week, when I got my hands on 10 full yards of it!! Come and get this marble-y goodness while it lasts! ๐พ

Hey friends! I've been terrible about posting here, but rest assured I'm still busy at work sewing up your collar orders! ๐ถ๐ฑ . . . Excuse the ladder - I've been changing out some light fixtures ๐คช . . . #handmade #dogcollar #catcollar #petaccessories #etsy #Etsyshop #sewing #doglover
Had some help this morning ๐ธ #cats #handmade #catcollar #dogcollar #petfriendly #sewing #etsy #etsyseller #etsyshop #petaccessories
Here's a slightly better quality, slightly less fast-paced video of a dog collar being sewn up. This one skips the step where I sew along the edges of the whole piece, and before that there's a lot of measuring/cutting/ironing! ๐
Laser pointers: not just for cats. ๐ Does your dog like to chase these? [Full disclosure: Eva gets to "catch" it (on a treat) when we're done, and since she knows I control it I make sure she sees me put it away so she doesn't get obsessive looking for it.]
When you're trying to cut out stabilizer for collars but Monti demands some lovin' and you can't say no to those handsome green eyes... ๐๐
Hey everybody! I've recorded a new bandana tutorial, this time with narration by yours truly. ๐ Just a little refresher for those of you who are new to our shop and may be wondering how our bandanas work!
