At the Shop the Frontier web site, it states, “All of our profit supports business training and micro-lending programs for women and small business and, as we grow, we’ll fund local youth technology and area business start-ups.  In these ways, we serve rural women and their communities by being a catalyst for entrepreneurial success.”

Featured at Shop the Frontier, these funny and adorable Rag Doll Kittens are handmade by artist Linda Harvey at her home-based enterprise, Harvey’s Humbles,  located on the banks of the beautiful Methow River in the Washington North Cascades.

All Harvey’s Humbles critters are original designs, created not just to satisfy their designer’s sense of whimsy, but also using material and production methods defined with safety in mind. They are made from synthetic acrylic yarns and polyester fiberfill to minimize any possiblity of allergic reaction. Acrylic eyes and noses are on shanks inserted through the fabric and secured with lock washers. No glue is used.

Choose from Pale Grey, Seal-Point Siamese, Black Puss-in-Boots, or Watercolor characters. You can purchase one of these adorable cats for $15.50 at ShopTheFrontier.com.
