Picasso visits The Pet Cabaret


Well, lovely fourteen year old African Grey parrot,
Picasso had his mom, Liz drive him into
The Pet Cabaret for a visit today.
There was a good deal of activity in the
shop at the time so Picasso regurgitated a
few times because he was a touch overly excited.
No big deal, it happens to all of us.




Though store kitty Giacomo has seen birds before,
he has never seen one quite like Picasso, so he was
more than a little interested in the avian guest.
He even took time off from his busy sleeping schedule
to ensure that Picasso had a satisfying visit.





Here is a shot of Giacomo trying desperately to ignore
his guest. Mom Liz is making sure that Picasso's feelings
are not hurt by the snub.
Picasso left the store with a bag full of toys and a little less
food in his belly. He also left with an ability to imitate the
sound of the scanning gun of our cash registers and we hope,
good memories of his visit to The Pet Cabaret.

Organic Pumpkin and Sweet Potato

As many of you know organic sweet potatoes and canned pumpkin make a wonderful addition to pet diets. These foods add healthful fiber and antioxidants to a diet as well as generous amounts of Vitamin A.

We often recommend the addition of sweet potato or pumpkin when pets are experiencing a belly upset or are trying to knock off a few pounds.

So now we have it right here in the store. We have brought in Nummy Tum Tum organic canned pumpkin and sweet potato. Nummy Tum Tum pumpkin and sweet potato are organically grown and canned in the U.S. so you can be sure of their quality.

Drop by the store and grab some for your pal, and to help you figure out what to do with it, here is a recipe for doggie treats using Nummy Tum Tum.

Nummy Tum Tum™ Dog Treats

Use Pure Pumpkin and Pure Sweet Potato to make super-nutritious dog treats!

  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup Nummy Tum Tum™ puree
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons dry milk
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • water
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Mix together eggs and puree; add salt, cinnamon, dry milk, and flour.
  3. Add vanilla, then add water until the dough is dry and crumbly but workable.
  4. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface, 1/2" thick. Cut into desired treat shapes.
  5. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet about 1" apart.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes, then turn treats over and bake another 20 minutes.
