NOW OPEN !!!!!!

Gonna put the info right up front.

"Cat and Bell co."
223 King st. E.
Hamilton, Ontario (Canada)

Social media info further down.

This is the front from a few days ago. Last night some horrible person smashed one of the windows but it will be fixed soon.

Things are still in flux in terms of layout but we have the displays in house and are getting some of the stock out.

This half-table wall is just a showpiece for now but will have goods on it eventually.

Hand-knitt bees. If you zoom in you can see polymer clay bee-motif earrings.

Hand made plush cats, koalas, owls, robots.

More plush animals. On the bottom are knitt sloths, designed to hang down and hold small pots for succulents.

Custom knitt booties, canvas bags silkscreened with "Check Meowt".

Forbidden cupcakes, or soaps. Probably soaps.

More soaps. My wife's mentor makes them, her whole house smells fragrant.

Bat salts and bath balms.

Candles. Gotta have Candles.

"Burrito beds" pet blankets.

Pet ties for every occasion.

Pet pillows.

A close up of the hanging basket sloths.

Hand made polymer clay earrings.

All kinds of designs.

Digital art prints.

Buttons and Keychains.

These are prints of pieces from my wife's gallery showing, "punamalia", a few years ago. From the top: Ferret Faucet, Cowbert Einstein, and Alfurd Hitchcock.

A "Dog Ross" keychain.

"Cleocatra"

She also teaches classes so people can paint their own pets. This is out living room wall. Just some of what she has done.

This is her painting of my true friend, Baby.

And this is what she taught me to do in just one hour.

She's really good. I think this one is my favorite.

The store will be open in about a week, people looking to get a painting of their pet can contact her anytime. "Paint your pet" classes for small groups at the store can also be booked to take place, just reach out to her on social media.

You can find her business on Instagram @catandbellco. Her personal website is katiefavell.com.
Catandbellco@gmail.com
She's also on facebook.

Followed her insta. Hope the best for you guys

Co-worker knitted bees for xmas gifts last year. Called them "Grump Bees." My wife and I loved it so much we leave him out year-round.

She's done a few but it adds extra effort, on both ends. Reach out to her and she'll discuss with you.

All of this is adorable. Take solace in knowing that whoever stoved the window in likely just did so as a random act of vandalism knowing >
