At Skitterskat, we believe that animal lovers are special people who devote their lives to the care and concerns of our animal friends. We know they agree that every animal deserves a loving home where they are able to spend their days being appreciated for the joy and companionship they provide. Skitterskat aims to honor these special people by offering eclectic gifts that remind them of those amazing dog and cat members of their family.

Skitterskat is located in Richmond, Virginia and is owned and operated by Tamara Wyatt. Tamara was raised by animal-loving parents and was born to continue the tradition. Although partial to cats, Tamara and her husband, Curtis, and their twin daughters, are friends to all animals.

With a desire to do something to help her furry friends, Tamara began thinking about some of her favorite places to shop during travels with her family -- unique boutiques catering to those who love cold noses, warm hearts, fish breath, tickly whiskers and fuzzy fur. To Tamara's dismay, there was no such place near her home, so that's when the brainstorming began and Skitterskat was born.
