Crocheted poop

I was first inspired to create pet toys by my cat who demanded the highest quality catnip and original design. My inspirations include vintage fabric, 1940s illustration, and my goofy dachshund. Take a peek at my new etsy store: CityMouseDC.etsy.com

Chris says his influences are “waking up earlier than I want to, wood chips under my feet, soft foods, swing sets and communist propaganda posters”. Check out Chris’ design work
