Oh. My. Gawd. These new note cards we found are a dream come true. Tons of puns in one place. A punderland, if you will!

If you have spent any time at Pet-Pet, you know how we utterly adore the sheer brilliance of the pun. Well, it seems as if we are not the only ones. If fact, there is a site completely devoted to not just puns, but pet-related puns. Ladies and gentlemen, we have hit the jackpot.

At Swifthinking, they combine animal illustrations with clever puns. Take the Cat Napa note card with a snoozing calico in a wine glass. Or the Yankee Poodle all decked out in America’s best. The Bichon Frisée is an instant classic, and the Black LaBRAdor is my sexy favorite.

Each creative design comes in a box of 12 note cards complete with envelopes. I know I have said it before, but this site warrants it: These note cards are PUNDERFUL!

I once had a friend, “had” being the operative word, (we don’t speak anymore) who was not an animal lover. That’s I okay, I thought. I didn’t want to be judgmental and figured her opinion was simply that—her opinion. So, the topic of dogs never really came up in our conversations, until one fateful day.

She mentioned that her boyfriend at the time had a golden retriever. Me, being the dog-lover that I am, went on and on about how wonderful goldens are—how sweet, loving and kind-hearted they are as a breed. A true best friend. After my rant, she just looked at me kind of cockeyed and responded, “I think they’re ugly.” Our friendship went downhill from there.

I don’t know. The fact that she said goldens were “ugly” spoke volumes to me about her character because not only are golden retrievers beautiful on the outside, there are simply spectacular on the inside. And again, I know that that was just her opinion, but in my mind, she was wrong (and maybe a little evil!)

What’s my point? I don’t know. I don’t really have one. I think I am just feeling introspective today. But, if you are a golden retriever lover, check out GoldHeart Golden Retrevier Rescue (GRREAT), an amazing golden rescue organization in Maryland I had the privilege of working with a couple of years ago.
