Catography

Pet owners are a consumer force to be reckoned with-they spoil their pets and treat them like members of the family, buying them clothes, spa treatments, and therapy. Now, for the cat or dog owner with everything, comes Catography and Dogography, innovative new gift boxes featuring the endearing work of renowned pet photographer Jim Dratfield. Dubbed "the Annie Liebowitz of the animal world," Jim Dratfield's work has proven appeal in both the book and stationery market: Pug Shots is in its sixth printing, with 30,000 sold, and its charming photographs inspired a spin-off line of cards.Each box contains a journal in which to record the biography of your pet's life, a set of notecards, and a book of quotes and photographs-all featuring Dratfield's irresistible animal portraits and all handsomely packaged in a keepsake box perfect for gift-giving. While there are many other charming cat and dog books and journals on the market, no other package combines the two in such a beautiful keepsake format, making Catography and Dogography irresistible impulse buys for the pet lover on your list.
