If you’re a fashionable guy, I highly recommend checking out Ron Tomson downtown! My partner and I needed some new suits for a wedding in Santa Barbara this weekend, so we popped in there yesterday and lemme tell ya, this place has the best selection of elevated, sparkly menswear. Lots of leather and rhinestones, too.

Speaking of good shopping…

OUT ON THE TOWN

WHEN YOUR PET NEEDS TO BORROW 10 GRAND

Table legs get scratched up like they owe the cat money. Shoes are dragged under the couch like the mob disposing of a “package.” These are routine costs of pet ownership; a $10,000 surprise emergency surgery is not. Unfortunately, things DO happen, and you most assuredly DO want to be prepared for them.

Pet insurance can help you offset some of these costs by providing up to 90% reimbursement, with plans starting at $10/month. Click below to find the right plan before your animal invents a new way to bankrupt you.*

LOCALS ONLY

• The 8th Annual Culver City Arts Festival is coming up on Saturday, 10/10, featuring live music, artists, vendors, food trucks, a beer garden, and more fun for all ages!

• The world’s largest event for cat lovers, CatCon returns to the Pasadena Convention Center 10/10-11 for their 11th year of feline fun, featuring product drops, a Cat Art Show, famous felines and creators, live entertainment, and more!
