I’m so excited to tell you about a brand new book, available this week for the first time. If you love cats, crafts and modern design, then this is a must-have for your reading list! It’s Kitty Jones Kitty Crafts: Beautifully Designed Projects for a Cat-Friendly Home by Jen Curry, founder of Kitty Jones.
Jen has been making well-designed cat toys, scratchers, and other home goods with Kitty Jones since 2007. This book brings her ideas and inspiration to you, complete with beautiful photographs and easy-to-follow instructions. The book is divided into two sections: PLAY including DIY projects for making stylish cat toys, scratchers, hideaways and more; and HOME filled with feline-themed decorative items that don’t scream crazy cat lady.

Four adorable kitty models are photographed throughout the book, bringing the projects to life. The book is beautifully designed and an absolute pleasure to read. This is the perfect holiday gift for all of your crafty cat-loving friends!

love crafts, especially for my Zeus
the purple mice are my fav. Such a great contest!!!
September 17th, 2012 at 1:56 pm
Our kitty LOVES playing with stuffed mice! She carries them ever so cutely in her mouth and bats them around to places unknown. We crawl around on the floor, looking under furniture for them on a regular basis. I make things for her here and there…some of her favorite toys and other items are handmade by me!
September 17th, 2012 at 1:57 pm
I would very much like to win Kitty Jones Kitty Crafts book. I would love to try to make things for my cats.
Thankyou………………….
September 17th, 2012 at 2:05 pm
Looks great! Can’t wait to check it out.
September 17th, 2012 at 2:08 pm
I’ve often considered building stuff like this, but wasn’t sure where to start. This would be a big help.
September 17th, 2012 at 2:10 pm
My cats are always looking for me to make them something new….
September 17th, 2012 at 2:11 pm
How cool is that! This is something the cats and I can both enjoy!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:16 pm
That looks wonderful.
September 17th, 2012 at 2:20 pm
This book sounds perfect for me!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:21 pm
Soooooo cool! Time to warm up the sewing machine!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:22 pm
Cute! It’s always so hard to find diy’s specifically for cats. Everything I usually see has a bunch of stuff for dogs, and like ONE craft idea for cats. I’m glad someone finally realized cat owners like to spoil their fur babies too!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:24 pm
Oh, boy would my kitties love the stuff in that book. I make the same old boring catnip bags, catnip fortune cookies and catnip stick thingies every year at Christmas for my cats and also for local rescue and humane society cats. This book would definitely take things up a notch…or several!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:26 pm
Would live this book! My kitties and foster kitties would love the end results!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:27 pm
Love this book! Always looking for creative ideas to make for my kitties and the ones at the shop waiting for adoption! Crossing my fingers, toes, and all
Paws in house that we win a book and a mouse!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:34 pm
There is not such a thing as enough or too many cat toys! Or books about cat toys
September 17th, 2012 at 2:35 pm
DROOL. Would love this to get some great homemade ideas
September 17th, 2012 at 2:35 pm
Please oh please we need new toys….
thank you.
September 17th, 2012 at 2:43 pm
What fun and a great way to reuse, recycle and save some bucks. Plus those mice are super cute and my kitties LOVE those types of toys.
September 17th, 2012 at 2:46 pm
what a great idea!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:48 pm

Looks great, would love to win it!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:52 pm
You can’t beat the combination of kitties and crafts. Our pumpkin loves to play with all craft supplies and is such a good helper – not! She deserves some new craft adventures though. Thanks for offering this!
September 17th, 2012 at 2:53 pm
Love to eat those mousies! Mousies what I love to eat! Bite their little heads off! Nibble they tiny feet! (My cats favorite Kliban poem)
