Merry Tails

I absolutely love this little shop! It’s my new favorite place when visiting the market! Apparently I spent almost an hour giggling and oogling all the wonderful items ranging from jewelry to decorations to books to gifts. Such a wonderful place! If you’re an animal lover, it’s a must when at Pike Place!

I wasn’t looking for this shop at Pike Place Market on the lower level, it found me. Or rather, it found the kid, and the kid pulled me into it.
As you walk in, you get to look at a pet «garden» consisting of stuffed animals behind some «fencing» and it was a very cute eye-​catching display. SMART WAY TO HOOK IN THE KIDS.
I also screetched with excitement when I saw a black cat print shirt. I actually saw that picture on Pinterest some months ago and had always loved that print and now I got to actually WEAR it!
They had dog things, cat things, owl things, other things… but I am cat lover so I was immediately hooked by the cat cups, shirts, plaques, stuffed dollies, stickers, etc. I ended up buying my beloved cat shirt, a cute pirate owl purse and a giant eagle plush for the kiddo for $ 91.00. It was a bit pricey but so is everything when you are a tourist on vacation.
This store gets a five star for having amassed a bunch of interesting things I’ve never seen anywhere else, for friendly service and for having that black cat T-​shirt of my dreams.

This store is soooooooooooo adorable! It’s a shame that it is a bit hidden! It has basically anything a pet owner would love for gifts or basically, «pet fan» things… of like… everything. Turtles, Foxes, Dogs, Squirrels, Mice, Cats, Pandas, Whales, etc. It is simply adorable & quite a creative idea for a store. They also sell Natural Life products, which I loveeee! I will be back… o yes, yes I will :)

OMG I love this store. I come here when I am at the market with my best friend. I love their animal bags and their super cute accessories. Prices are hit and miss to be honest which is more likely why I’ve mostly browsed instead of adopted, however, love the selection none the less. Customer service is very friendly. P. S. I am a sucker for anything with a rabbit on it, especially if it has a pink rabbit on it.

Good for gifts to pet owners and friendly enough staff, but this place is probably too small to be your one-​stop pet supply store. If this place is on your way home – and you can find it – it makes sense to stop by. But you may be disappointed with the selection and wind up going to a big box store.
May return when I need a gift, but not for normal pet needs.

This shop is a fun little corner of pike place. There is everything here for the animal lover! I especially like that they have products that feature more obscure breeds, such as airedale terriers or vizslas. I visit this place every time I come to the market. Definitely worth a visit, even if just to look at the wide variety of animal merchandise they have here!

This is a great gift shop! They have everything you could want for the crazy animal lover in your life!
Have a crazy selection of items designed to show off your love for your favorite animal! All animals are included from dogs, cats to woodland creatures!
My friend is obsessed with pugs and they have a great selection to add to her collection!
Only downside a bit pricey but it is in a tourist area and a speciality shop.

I visited this store while on vacation with my hubby. The store associates are quite rude, they definitely not morning person (or maybe just the attitude towards foreigner). Prices are high compare with other shops or online stores. Your time is far more valuable so skip this one if you can.

This is an adorable shop! If you love animals, this shop is for you! I bought the cutest little hedgehog here. A bit pricey, but how can you resist! The staff was very friendly and helpful.

What a great little store. Tons of fun pet-​themed items. Awesome for gift ideas.

When I first visited Seattle, prior to moving here from the east coast, 16 years ago, I immediately ventured to Pike Place Market to explore, and I fell into this store. I vaguely remember this store being bigger than it is now (I could be wrong on this point, but it seems the store has been reduced in size), but I immediately fell in love with all the dog stuff here (being the devoted Westie mom that I was — and still am!). I found lots of unique Westie novelties, cute animal greeting cards that I hadn’t seen before in other stores, other pet items for cats and bunnies, etc. I also remember how friendly the lady was who worked here, and how she informed me of other city sites, and dog-​friendly areas in and around Seattle. I purchased a book about travelling to and living in the PNW with dogs on that first visit to this store.
Fast forward 16+ years… I’ve been to this store many times. I’ve found many doggie tchatchkies here, and cards, and a few gifts for my crazy «cat lady» friends. It’s a fun place for the pet lovers out there.

This is one of the few places where you will find several breeds of dog and cat stuff that you simply can’t find anywhere else. For example, I bought a stuffed Dachsund, picture frame, and magnet. They also have a huge variety of socks to fit your dog breed. They go for around $ 12 a pair. The staff is helpful and friendly, and wraps your stuff carefully. Because this is in a huge tourist area, the prices are going to be a bit high, but you can live with it if you are looking for just that one thing you can’t find anywhere else.

What? A place for ANIMAL LOVERS to get cute stuff?!
I was happy to see some bunny stuff, as its rare to find rabbit owner stuff, so I quickly snatched up the «Warning: Attack Rabbit» sign.
The store is a bit expensive, but it is a small business!

Ok so I am a crazy dog lady who is obsessed with her bulldog.
That being said, this place was heaven. Tons of dog shirts, leashes, alt and pepper shakers, socks, etc for all kinds of breeds.
They also had a small pig section where i did pick up a few cute little leather items.
The people that worked there were super nice and answered all my crazy questions about the Justice league collars and leashes!

Merry tails is a store to visit if you’re in the area, and not a place you’d become a regular customer.
Prices are high, but if you’re looking for anything pet-​themed, you’ll find it here. Not only cats and dogs, but lots of owls, rabbits, pigs-​key chains and mouse pads and coin purses; things like that.
We found the store just walking around. I think if you were actually looking for it, you might have some trouble, as the market is quite the labyrinth.

Great little store. Found some neat gifts for dog lover friends and family on a recent visit to Seattle. Unique place to find dog and cat related gifts and accessories.

It’s a novelty store that you peek in after hours when you are drunk at Pike Place Brewery.
Seriously.
I did this numerous times.
«Isn’t that cat sign clevar!»
*hic*
«If this store was open, I would totally buy that „My cat is in charge“ sign.»
*hic*
«Let’s get pancakes.»
Strangely, I was here during business hours and decided to venture in. It’s mostly filled with the most cutesy cat and dog things in the world. Any proud pet parent would want.
I on the other hand wanted the last llama sign in the window for a perl programmer.

Get all your dog and cat lover items here. Its right off the market and can be reached either off the street or via the market. Lots of stuffed animals and other cat/​dog items. I found a great x-​mas ornament here of a particular dog breed that I was looking for. It made the perfect gift.
The staff was friendly. The owner likes to ask what kind of dog you own and then proceeds to show you pictures of all her animals. Let this serve as a warning.
The prices are on the higher side as it is a specialty store located in the market, but nothing was over the top.
