Cause to Paws

Looking to reward your dog or cat with a special treat? Buying a gift for a die-hard pet enthusiast? Opened in 2005, Cause to Paws is a Boston area dog and cat boutique serving up unique pet and speciality pet-related products in the heart of Brookline's Coolidge Corner. Spearheaded by a long-time Brookline resident Terry Meyers, Cause to Paws is a true family business that evolved from the owner's love for her dog Kanji (part Cockapoo, part Shitzu)--a gift from a friend that quickly turned into so much more. Meyers' sister EG joined the team adding her dog Decia, a Lhasa Apso, to the family with Kanji in tow. Perfect for the budding pet fashionista, Cause to Paws specializes in "canine couture," or stylish accessories for the sartorially inclined. Posh pooches can be outfitted in Bessie and Barnie harnesses crafted in comfy stretch mesh or a Red Sox jersey showing team pride. The shop also boasts hand-crafted leather dog collars and leashes from Ecollargy and Itzadog, while cat lovers purr over their "Fling-Ama-String," a battery operated string toy that hangs on any standard door knob, in addition to specialty catnip and catnip toys from Ducky World. Not a pet-passionate person? No problem. Even if you're not a dog or cat enthusiast, Cause to Paws carries a wide variety of cat, dog and people items perfect for friends and family who are typically hard to buy for. They specialize in crafting gift packages with an assortment of goodies for the pet and the people who love them. And if you can't decide on the perfect gift for the pet lover in your life, a Cause to Paws gift certificate is sure to please. For these cold winter months - Cause to Paws is fully stocked with great holiday gifts for pets. Cause to Paws stocks a wide variety of adorable holiday outfits, as well as winter coats and sweaters for dogs and cats. Paw protection is crucial in the winter, and picking up a pair of snug boots or mittens for your dog or cat will help keep them warm.
