Catnip Pillows are a favorite of all cats and kittens! They are small fabric pillows stuffed with polyester stuffing and a small amount of Catnip.
Directions:
1. Cut pieces of fabric into approximately 4" by 4" square.
2. Take two pieces of fabric and put them together with print-sides facing each other.
3. Sew three sides to make a pocket.
4. Turn pocket inside out, so print side is showing.
5. Fill about ¾ of the way full with polyester stuffing and about 1 teaspoon of catnip.
6. Fold top of pocket inside and sew shut (this can be machine-sewn; doesn't need to be done by hand).

Pet Beds provide extra comfort for animals recovering from surgery.
Directions:
You Need:
New bath towel (BATH TOWEL ONLY)
Batting from fabric shop the thicker the better
Needle and Thread, sewing machine would be good
Yarn
Fold the towel in half width wise. Sew up the outside edges. Cut the batting to fit the inside of the towel and insert. Sew the opening closed. Now take pieces of yarn and stitch through the entire towel and batting and tie off. Place the yarn tie-downs evenly on the pet bed. This helps the batting not to shift and bunch when being washed. You have a great easy-to-clean pet bed.
