My love and appreciation for Poor Cat Designs started three Christmas' ago when I told Santa I wanted a David Yurman or Tiffany's Dog Tag as my primary gift. Santa has selective hearing, he only heard Dog Tag. No, he actually heard David and Tiffany, but wanted me to have something special and unique. So he searched the web and found PCD and I'm glad that he did.
PCD is a creative and innovative designer working in Platinum, 24 & 18K yellow gold, 18k white gold, 18k pink gold and my favorite sterling silver. My first Christmas, I did get my dog tag along with a very detailed Koi Fish. A Koi Fish in Japanese is for good luck. I had to have that one explained to me, because I wondered why I was getting a fish. Once I understood, it was cool and thoughtful that someone one would give me "good luck" to have around my neck at all times. These are small charms attached to a ring on a rawhide necklace.
The second year, we sent my necklace back and had them add a small dog bone. You can see, I have a theme going on to match my nickname of "sheltie dad".
Then this third year, he started a new necklace with a disc imprinted with a paw print and a wishbone signifying luck dog.
I totally enjoy both of my PCD necklaces, and just the other day I meet someone visiting the area wearing a PCD Koi fish. When I commented on hers' she was amazed someone in STL knew about PCD. She was even more surprised when I showed her all of my charms.
PCD has amazing bracelets and rings as well and I now have my eyes set on a ring. I am keeping my fingers crossed that they soon find a jeweler here in STL to carry their product. In the meantime, we'll continue to order from their catalog and over the phone. Their customer service is great and they deliver what they promise.
Brian Williams, Bon Jovi and Lady Antebellum are all big fans of Poor Cat Designs and so am I. read more
