The Little Pip Project
If you have bought a Little Pip– you may already know this, but if not, this is our Little Pip Project. For every Little Pip that is bought, we donate one to someone in need. Last week we were able to start handing them out, starting with Berlin Nursing Home in Berlin, Maryland. Of course…
Pip the Easter Bunny
Pip tells of his Easter fun…. “On Good Friday I woke up really early and got all my bags packed. Then I got Mommy and Daddy ready, and we all went to Berlin, to pick up Great-Grammy. Daddy had off from work because of the holiday, and Great-Grammy (that’s Grammy’s mom) didn’t have Bridge Club…
Storytime with Pip
Story Time with Pip at the Ocean City Library Every Wednesday at 10:30am the Ocean City Branch of the Worcester County Library holds its weekly story time. Pip was invited to come and share his story with the little youngsters, and we were able to give them a sneak peek at his new book! The…
Pip Goes to Space!
Several months ago Nasa made a call for social influencers, opening the application process to anyone that thought they might be able to spread the word about the amazing science and technology behind the Cygnus Antares Rocket launch at NASA Wallops Island. So Pip applied. He was a part of the first group accepted, and…
Pip goes to John B. Parsons Assisted Living
The Road to Becoming a Volunteer… After the first time Pip was featured on the news, and we realized we had a special little kitty on our hands, the first thing we began to do was research what other “adventure cats” do. We started reading about all of these cats that go crazy places and…
The Book: Why and Where we are Donating
If you haven’t heard already, Pip has written his first ever children’s guidebook! We use the word “children’s” loosely, because personally we think that this book could be enjoyed by people of all ages! As local natives of Ocean City, Maryland, we often end a summer season not realizing we should have said goodbye to…
Pip the Beach Cat Volunteers at Harrison Hall Senior Living in Snow Hill, Maryland
Each week, usually on Wednesday afternoons, Pip heads off to Snow Hill to visit the Harrison House Senior Living Center. This is a much smaller facility than Berlin, so we know almost everyone there now. We’ve since upgraded our Fannypack pictured below to something sturdier, but we’ll hold this one near and dear to our…
Pip’s Reading Projects at Cedar Chapel Special School
Cedar Chapel Special School (CCSS) serves students from all of Worcester County by preparing students with moderate to severe disabilities between the ages of 3 and 21 to be included in general education curriculum, to be gainfully employed, and to be self-sufficient at home and within their community. The school climate is a clear reflection of…
Pip walks in Stephen Decatur’s Water Walk for South Sudan
Pip was invited Friday March 29th to the Stephen Decatur Middle School’s Walk for Water campaign to build wells in South Sudan. Pip is quite popular at the school and the class wanted to use his “celebrity” to get more students to come participate in the walk! So Pip signed on to walk the entire…
Pip Volunteers at the Berlin Nursing Home
We asked Pip what it is like volunteering at the Berlin Nursing Home and Rehabilitation Center. These are his answers: So what is it like to be a Therapy Cat? Well, technically, I guess I’m there as a cat doing therapy, but I’m not a certified therapy cat, because I am too little to get…
Pip goes to Kindergarten!
A couple of weeks ago, Pip received an envelope full of letters… We read them together and even featured them on our Fan Mail Friday post, and it was clear that he had an entire kindergarten class following along with his adventures! They had each written a letter to Pip and as a class had…
Pip Visits the St. Francis Neighborhood Center
Five years ago was a big year for our now family. Little did we know, working at Macky’s Bayside Bar and Grill would develop so many long-lasting relationships in our lives. It’s how my mommy and daddy met, it’s how my paw-rents met many of their best friends now, and it’s how Miss Katie that…
Pip Attends SantaCon 2018
SantaCon is a yearly tradition, both here in Ocean City and around the world. It started years ago in SanFrancisco, and has since spread wide and far. While many have argued that SantaCon tends to be a drunk and disorderly event in many cities, at it’s heart here in Ocean City, Maryland, is the biggest…
Pip Plays Santa Claws
Back in November, we contacted Hero Industries. They were recommended to us by The Cricket Center, an organization in our area that helps abused children, because they had just gotten a therapy dog, and Hero Industries had designed a stuffed animal version of their therapy dog, Josiah, so each child would always have Josiah with…
