The Problem with Most Fur Leggers Beds, Stuffed Toys & Why Our Knotty Toys Are A Pawtastic Choice!

Health

Hello everyone, CEO Olivia yapping about the impawtance of having non toxic beds & stuffed toys for your good dog or cool cat.

Let’s look at beds first. Just like dog & cat toys there are a lot of poor quality, down right toxic products on the market. But even high quality beds can contain toxic chemicals that can harm your good dog or cool cat.

You see, the problem with many dog & cat beds is that they are treated with flame retardant chemicals. These chemicals gas off over time, meaning a snuggled in good dog or cool cat is breathing them in as they nap.  Prolonged exposure can damage the brain, reproductive organs, the thyroid gland, the immune system, liver, & pancreas. They have also been linked to certain types of cancer.

Toys are often made from artificial fabrics such as nylon which is basically, plastic. Plastics break down into toxic micro dust. Chewing on a nylon toy if your a dog or licking one if your a cat can lead to ingesting these micro particles.

Inside dog & cat toys you might find foam or some kind of shredded plant fibre. Foams gas off too as they brake down & shavings may not have been cleaned before becoming stuffing; the plant they came from may have been processed with carcinogens. I won’t even bark about some of the horrors we have heard & read about many toys made for dogs, cats & human babies.

When pawchasing products for your four legger, it’s impawtant to go all natural whenever possible. When my huMom realised my epilepsy could be triggered by environmental toxins, she started Knotty Toys for Good Dogs.  We use natural, chemical free hemp & USDA organic cotton in our toys.

Our Knotty Toys are super strong & resistant to molds & mildew. The tough hemp fibers of a Knotty Toy clean your good dog’s & cool cat’s teeth as it chews & trust me, we love the natural earthy aroma of our wagnificent hemp rope dog toys like Big Gnaws, Mighty Gnaws, Knotty Chaw Chaws, Mighty Chaw Chaws. We also pawfer our soft dog toy Knotty Rove Tosser. This soft toy for good dogs is made with tough hemp cloth on the outside, wooftastic smelling hemp rove inside wrapped around 19 mm hemp rope. Sewn up with USDA Certified Organic cotton thread. The raw hemp rope in the middle gives it a good chew that makes this soft toy one you can really bite down on. Pawsome for fetch, tug games or just tossing around. 8″ x 3″ approx. size.  

    Our purrtastic cat toys include Dot’s  purrfect choice the  Knotty Bon Bon. A meowsome 12mm x 8″ Single Knot with a hint of catnip added.  These knotastic toys are sold in multiples of 3s.  

Jerry Underfoot’s meownow pick is our Knotty Nip for Cool Cats. These Earth friendly little sacks of fun are purrfect for any feline posse. Knotty Nips are made from tough hemp linen stuffed with hemp fiber & organic catnip, sewn up with USDA certified organic cotton thread.

We don’t have all natural beds yet, but they’re on the drawing board, as are blankets & matts. Until then I managed to sniff out a recent review of top quality dog & cat beds which you can see here.
