Pet Dish
With the Blue Angels in town, the Seattle Humane Society would like to remind pet owners that dogs and cats are much more sensitive to loud noises than we are. My dogs are terrified of fireworks and I can only imagine the roar of jets flying overhead is quite similar.

At first glance, I thought it was just a great-looking pitcher that matched my turquoise Fiesta ware, but after trying it out, I was completely smitten.
