Concrete Coir update showing our special finish yarn coming off the loom in Deli, India. 

The Polecat & Scraaaatch Stand Pipe that were recently installed at Lady Dinah's Cat Emporium have gone down a treat with the cats, staff & customers alike.

This month's stock item is a Wall Mounted Fatcat 4 finished in Bleached Coir with White Twist Pile internals - this was the last unit that we made at our Wallis Road workshop before it closed last month.

We've found a new HQ for making our Hicat® products & are going to be based in Southwark, just south of Tower Bridge in London.

This month's stock item is a Catapilla™ finished in Bleached Coir with Coloured Twist Pile internals - it's made up of a Purple Body+ unit & Green, Orange & Pink Body units.

Just a very quick but big THANK YOU to everyone who's emailed notes of support or Tweeted sweet things about us following the news of our temporary workshop closure...

We are very sorry to say that the Wallis Road building that has been our home since 2008 was sold recently & we have been told unexpectedly that we need to vacate by the end of the month.

Some of you will remember our special grey Concrete Coir finish that we imported a few years ago - this finish went down really well with our customers & we've been on the look out for a replacement ever since.

We've just received a wonderful note from Donatella at the L’Associazione Telefono Difesa Animali to say thank you for the Tomcat 4 that we donated last month...the charity's Facebook page says it all.

We have two Tomcat 4 units that have been sitting in the workshop for what seems to be forever, one of which is the unit that we used in our photo shoot for our home page website images.

We've just made the draw for the prototype Catapilla unit that was up for grabs & the first nomination out of the hat was RSPCA Southall...congratulations to them!

We've been contacted by a customer who is moving home & sadly having to give up their Tomcat 3 - they've kindly offered to donate their unit to a charity or rehoming centre as their first choice but other deserving homes will be considered.

For the first & last time we will be participating in the Hackney WickED DIY Open Studios event, which is part of the London Festival for Architecture & is being held on 29th-31st July. Our doors will be open on the Friday & Saturday & it's probably going to be the last Open Studios event given that the area is about to go through redevelopment displacing a large number of workshops & artists, including us.
