Didymos Size 5 Indio Ruby Red Woven Wrap Giveaway!

Whether you're no stranger to babywearing and toddlerwearing, or would like to try it out---you won't want to miss this amazing giveaway! This stunning woven wrap was picked up by The Pierogie Mama on her family's trip to Germany. You can see amazing photos from their trip by searching #GutenTagPierogie on Instagram! Read below for all the details and enter to win this beautiful wrap. Good luck!

Didymos is world renowned for their commitment to quality sourced materials and high ethical standards and bringing baby wearing to the Western World. Woven wraps have been historically the best way to carry babies and although they take a little bit of practice, they can quickly become just as easy to use as any other carrier. Started in 1972 by Erika Hoffman, a mother of twins, the heritage of Didymos runs deep with a great following. A Didymos Indio wrap, made from 100% organic cotton, is a crowd favorite and works well for babies through toddlers!

The Didymos Indio Ruby Red is a wrap that is sure the wow anyone who sees it! When The Pierogie Mama visited Didymos HQ in Ludwigsburg, this wrap stood out above the rest. Not only was the color so rich and deep, it also reminded her of her own Ruby...who just turned 2 years old! So in honor of her baby not being so much of a baby anymore, The Pierogie Mama is excited to send a little bit of her daughter's firey spunk to a lucky winner!  Yes, this very wrap hitchhiked with Bianca (in her carryon luggage, mind you!) all the way from Germany to Seattle.

Get the Scoop on the Weruva® Cat Litter, It's a #CatTeaPotty!



Disclosure: Thank you to Weruva for sponsoring this content. I received product and compensation in order to facilitate this review. All thoughts and opinions expressed below are my own. For more information, please refer to the disclosure that can be found at the bottom of this post.

Cat litter is one of those things that a lot of pet owners don't put a lot of thought into. After all, it's something your feline companions use as a potty! What's to think about? It's just that simple... or is it?

My first real experience with cats was when I was a teenager and my family adopted a cat within a few weeks of my birthday. With such a large family, my mother was worried the poor little thing would be loved to death because of how much attention she received on a daily basis. We were all equally fond of the little fur ball. So one cat became two cats, and two cats eventually became three. Our trio is now getting up there, at the ripe old ages of 11, 10, and 9. We first began researching alternatives to the common cat litter for several reasons: #1. The cats were tracking it everywhere, and I mean everywhere. #2. Cleanup was messy, with soiled clay gunk being difficult to scrape off of the bottom of our litter box completely. We were cleaning the box frequently, and yet it wasn't really getting clean. Which meant plenty of smelly odors were always clinging to the walls and floor of the litter box, maintaining a malodorous environment at all times. #3. As far as odor goes, it simply wasn't cutting it! Every time any one of the cat's used the litter box for some number two business, I could have sworn a nuclear waste occurrence requiring a hazmat suit for immediate and proper disposal was required.

While we initially concluded the solution was simple and straightforward, it turned out to be something else in actual practice. We tried several different types of cat litter products, but we had a very hard time controlling odor, and so the search for the perfect cat litter continued. Over the years, I've tried a lot of litter products with a lot of cats as a foster parent for rescue felines, without every finding the glass slipper, so to speak. But one thing has become more and more clear over the years: that odor control wasn't the only issue surrounding clay-based litter products.

More and more research on cat litter products reveal that the most typical of cat litters aren't exactly the best for our cats---or for us. As the awareness increases, so do the options for clay cat litter alternatives for cats & kittens from a variety of sources such as recycled paper, pine, and even wheat. New from Weruva® comes a whole new type of cat litter! The Weruva Cat Litter is made with Hinoki wood and green tea. This natural cat litter is responsibly sourced, low dust, offers quick clumping, and provides excellent odor control. It is also free of common cat allergens! Weruva Cat Litter contains no corn or wheat, and is also free of clay and grains. Did you know that bacteria is a common cause for litter box odor? The Hinoki wood and green tea in this great litter product for your beloved felines work together to suppress bacteria and odor, naturally.

Opening a bag of Weruva Cat Litter for the first time, I was surprised by its natural, earthy scent. A pleasant and welcome change from the chemical smell of clay litters I've used in the past. Despite being a wood-based litter, I did not see any way that the texture of the Hinoki wood pellets would be unpleasant for even the most dainty cat paws. As many cat owners can surely attest, felines can be finicky and selective about their litter. So the true test was to see how our household animal companions would respond to the Weruva Cat Litter. Eager to try it with one of our pickiest residents, we decided to let Mylo have a go at it, our fussy feline who has refused to use many litter products we've tried to get him to use. After a few minutes of investigation, the litter received his stamp of approval! He even seemed to think it was comfy enough to sit in. The cat litter from Weruva was also accepted by our other cats, and is one of the few products we've tried that all of the cats will use! My family has been very pleased with the life of the Weruva Cat Litter. The 6.7 lb bag held up for 12 days, even being used by three cats! I'm over the moon about finding a sustainable cat litter that I can feel good about my cats using. So what are you waiting for? Your cats can join the tea potty! Order a bag today and discover the advantages of Weruva Cat Litter.

Dogs Love Weruva®: The Choice for Premium Nutrition #WeruvaDog



This post is sponsored by Weruva and the BlogPaws® Pet Influencer Network. I am being compensated for helping create awareness around the brand new Caloric Harmony and Caloric Melody premium dog food product lines, but I only share information we feel is relevant to our readers. Weruva is not responsible for the content of this article.

When I was growing up, our family included a beloved Akita by the name of Raja. He was only 7 1/2 weeks old when he came to live with us. Despite his good lineage, we saw his health begin to decline when he was barely out of his puppy stage. We chalked it up to bad luck, but I wish we had known then what most people know now about the importance role that quality dog food can play in the health of our dear animal companions.

Better informed after years of working with---and around---animals, as well as doing as research (ahem---thorough Googling) helped me make better choices for our pets when I started a family of my own. Much like my childhood dog, Raja, our Chocolate Labrador-Retriever cross, Copper, came to live with us when he was 7 weeks old. Rather than following tradition and feeding my new puppy a popular store brand filled with a generous portion of low quality meat byproducts, an overrepresented portion of carbs designed to be filler, and unpronounceable preservatives and additives, I chose to go a different route. We decided early on to feed our dog a good quality dry food for dogs. It became apparent to us that the best care was preventative care to minimize costly vet bills and improve the quality of life for our dog---and that meant seeking a diet for our dog that offered optimal nutrition.

So what is a better choice for dog food? There are certain things to look for. First and foremost: meat should always be the first ingredient. Dog food has come a long way in even the last 15 years as we've come to better understand the nutritional needs of man's best friend. With the abundance of information available about better ways to help our dogs maintain good health, the choices of quality dog food are better than ever. The Weruva® formulas for dogs include options for responsibly sourced, quality protein such as venison, salmon, lamb, turkey, and lentils. With six different formulas of dry dog kibble for all life stages, there is a great option for every dog---even picky eaters. Weruva's low fat dog food options even contain pumpkin in their products to aid healthy digestion. Tons of information about the Weruva Caloric Harmony for Dogs and Caloric Melody for Dogs formulas can be found on their website.

Copper is now 7 years old, and he's come a long way since his puppyhood. Although he's getting up there in age, I'm happy to report that he's healthy (his veterinarian said so!) and happy as a clam (at least as far as we can tell). I am so glad to have a premium dry dog food which we can rely on, one that I know is designed with the nutritional need of dogs in mind. Copper has enjoyed every Weruva product he has tried, but he is currently enjoying the Weruva Caloric Melody Chicken, Turkey & Salmon Dinner with Lentils formula. He's been on this great dog food for several weeks, and we've noticed a difference over his previous grain-free dry dog food. Thanks to the great nutrients in this Weruva dry food---including salmon oil, linoleic acid, zinc, and B vitamins---which promote healthy skin and coat, we've noticed it is more glossy and less dry---something even I envy! With the high quality, all-natural ingredients, it's easy to see why Weruva Caloric Harmony and Weruva Caloric Melody are great options for a healthy diet for canine friends.
