Our Mission

Through sponsorships, donations, and 10% of our profit sales, it is our mission that Moe Moe Candle Co. will have donated $100,000 to Animal Shelters in need throughout the USA by the year 2030.

Like a lot of our furry friends in need, our company is starting from nothing. While $100,000 isn’t millions, once this figure is met we will jump to a much higher figure. We want to be able to help make sure animal shelters have all of the supplies they need to keep our friends safe and sound until they find their forever homes.

No shelter animals should be euthanized due to insufficient living space.

No shelter animals should be euthanized due to financial burden.

No shelter animals should be euthanized due to supply shortage.

No shelter animals should be euthanized.

Meet the Founder

Hello!

My name is Ryan Cheeseman, and I am the Owner and Founder of Moe Moe Candle Co. It is my absolute pleasure to be able to create these products for you, and to be able to bring more joy to whatever space you find yourself in. I’m so excited to see this company grow, and with it seeing just how much help we can provide to these animal shelters. Being able to save even one life by giving access to needed supplies would make the entire venture a success, and by reading this now you’re helping to make that dream a reality.

Thank you for coming, and thank you for helping us with our Donation to The Paws.

Our Story

In 2008, the passing of a family friend left behind a one-year old Jack Russell Terrier named Zany. She was living in a single room of a house alone for the better part of six months while the owner was in the hospital. She was being tended to only once a day for about 20 minutes to go outside once and have the food bowl filled. Upon the owner’s passing, my friend came to me and asked if I could take the pup in so she wouldn’t need to go to the county shelter.

I knew there was no other choice - I had to take her in.

I had always wanted a dog, but I wasn’t ever in a place where I felt I was ready for the responsibility. Ironically enough, almost every consumable form of information on dogs lists Jack Russell Terriers as one of the most difficult breeds to train and care for, so beginners should steer clear of the breed as a first pup - ha!

I remember the first night I had “Zany.” We went through all of the first-time transactions pretty quickly… She pooped in the car on the way home, came inside and immediately continued more of the same, and was up all night with anxiety from being in a new place with a stranger. After cleaning up, first thing was first… “Zany” wasn’t it.

This little pup was a wire-haired Jack Russell Terrier, who at one year old was a bit of a fluffball. Crowning this fluffball was a streak of white hair standing straight up in the middle of her little head. From then on, she was my Moe.

For the next 10 years Moe would be my best friend, constantly there in good times and bad. She’d bark at the worst times, she’d bite your butt when you were getting up to leave (I like to think she just wanted her friends to always stay), and she’d be too snobby to eat her freshly prepared food every other day. She would also curl up on my lap for hours, run crazy zoomies throughout the whole house, and try to sprint as quickly as possible whenever she was outside. She was my favorite, and she’ll be with me forever.

In 2018 Moe was diagnosed with a rare lung cancer, and she was taken from me far too early.

I’ve dedicated this company to my Moe in her name. Moe Moe Candle Co. will help to raise money for the less-fortunate furry friends, while also providing top-notch artisan candles to our less-furry friends.
