This place rawks!
I got a coupon for Smitten Kitten while leafleting with Why Vegans at the gay pride festival, and I just couldn't throw it away. One day, while doing some research on ebay, I discovered a new kind of vegan lip balm, Pussy Pucker Pots, and after visiting their website, saw that this hip vegan balm was sold at the Smitten Kitten. I had no excuse left not to check this place out. This lip balm is a little pricey, but it's great! The staff is friendly and helpful. The space is cheery and bright - not your usual adult toy shop. They even have two kinds of vegan lube. Their catering to all the sexy vegans out there should be applauded! Yay Smitten Kitten!
This place is the coolest, and the staff are very helpful and friendly. Several enticing options for males, and the staff have actually read the books they sell. They have 10% off on Sundays for everything except books (I think). All or almost all of the BDSM gear is available in non-leather varieties.
Though I didn't end up buying anything, the owner was incredibly helpful in explaining the products and creating an wonderfully positive environment. The owner also deserve kudos for proudly displaying her shop's wares in the store front window rather than conforming to the seedy sex shop model. To offer vegan products on top of it all raises the bar high for all her competitors.
