Today marks the first anniversary of PAWSH Magazine! It is almost impossible to think that 365 days ago we published our first article and photograph for you. A lot has happened since then. We have changed our name, launched a brand new website and are now embarking (no pun intended!) upon our debut Eprint edition, scheduled for release this spring! Yes, that’s right! A true magazine format is coming and we couldn’t be more excited to show it off to you all in April! Right now we’re busy designing our first issue and making sure everything is perfect! (More on that to come….)
However, the absolute best thing about the past year has been meeting all of you, our lovely readers. Thank you for sharing your stories, your support and your encouragement with us every day. We cannot say enough how much it means to us and the dear pets who continue to inspire our work. 
We hope now that you will join us in the celebration of PAWSH’s first birthday! Thanks to the wonderful generosity of Global Pet Foods Ottawa (the Bank Street and St. Laurent Blvd stores) we have an amazing birthday giveaway for TWO lucky readers!

THE PRIZES

1) A Dinosaur Tuffie

Designed with Jurassic strength in mind, these luxurious dino-themed toys provide enormous fun for even the toughest chewer! Boasting seven layers of stitching, two layers of industrial grade luggage material and one additional layer of durable fleece, there’s no wonder these large impressive toys have earned VIP status in the pet world. One of these beautiful beasts is up for grabs; although, may we recommend the T-Rex who stands more than two feet tall and retails for over $100! Big, bright, beautifully designed and machine washable!

2) Kitty Crinkle Sack

Cats are mysterious creatures who often sly away into the oddest nooks and crannies, even plastic bags! Well, eliminate potential danger and escalate your feline’s fancy with their own tailored hideaway crinkle sack. Although richly lined with Sherpa wool, this cozy bag crinkles nosily whenever touched, thus creating the perfect playful getaway for any active puddy-cat!  

3) Star Chaser & Turbo Scratcher

Keep your cat busy with this glamourous contraption that combines three feline loves: action, scratching and catnip! A motion activated LED light blinks brightly inside the ball that whizzes around a durable contained loop. The centre is comprised of a heavy duty scratching surface, which when sprinkled with a dash of catnip becomes irresistible to any eager kitty!

4) Neater Feeder  

This multiple award-winning invention is the cleverest thing ever to hit the doggy dish! Your pet’s dishes slide firmly into place within a plastic holder and the plastic holder is punctuated by a grill which resides over a tray. What does this mean? Any kibble or water that is spilled during supper time is caught and contained, avoiding sticky messes all over the kitchen floor. But the ingenuity doesn’t end there! This dish comes with optional legs, making it ideal for breeds who cannot eat properly with nose to the ground. Available in multiple sizes and colours, this is one stylish option to make every meal a dinner party!
