Please help spread the word and boycott this brutal business. Don’t be an unsuspecting link in the supply chain of cruelty.

The lead-up to Christmas is a critical time for puppy farmers who rely on impulse purchasing at pet shops in order to profit. We can stop the puppy trade by not buying puppies from pet shops and showing others why they should do the same.

Oscar’s Law aims to change the way our pets are kept, bred and sold.

• Abolish the factory farming of all companion animals.
• Ban the sale of factory farmed companion animals from pet shops and online trading sites.
• Promote adoption through rescue groups/pounds/shelters.

Watch and share this video to help educate others why we should not be buying any animals from pet shops.

What can you do to help?

• Don’t buy anything from businesses that exploit these poor animals, especially puppies and kittens.
• Help educate family and friends why is it is not OK for puppies and kittens to be sold in pet shops.
• Sign the online petition
• Join Oscar’s Law on Facebook and become proactive!
• Email the Premier, the Leader of the Opposition and Minister of Agriculture in your State, you can also email Julia Gillard and Tony Abbott. The website makes it easy, they have the letter for you,  just add your details and hit send!

Most have been eaten, or peed on and ruined. I came across Molly Mutt beds about 12mths ago, and they are the perfect pet bed!

The best part of these beds is in the stuffing. Regular pet beds can be near impossible to wash. But the molly mutt bed is just stuffed with your old clothes and blankets, washing the insides is just as easy as washing the cover.

I wash mine at least once a week, and it still looks great. I have just bought a second cover, so we can rotate them so the robots last a bit longer ;) To make it even easier to keep clean, they have recently released a water proof cover to go under the regular cover. Perfect if you have a peer like me.

Molly Mutt beds come in a range of funky fabrics as well as different shapes and sizes. So there is a perfect bed for all the furry family.

Now we have Kitty City. Certainly a video to get the brain cells working on a Monday morning. Enjoy!

Dogtober is a yearly fundraising campaign for Assistance Dogs Australia.

These are a series of very clever TV ads combining super cute Golden Retriever puppies and narration by funny man John Cleese.

I don’t recall seeing these TV ads? And they only seem to have been added to their youtube channel last week.

(if you are in your feed reader, you may need to click through for the super cuteness)

The pillows come in round or oval shape and you can customise the colour of the backing “hair”

Pillows cost $30US and that includes shipping to Australia. Turn around is generally 4-5 weeks. Gift cards also available.

We all know how flexible cats are, the way they contort their body into the weirdest sleeping positions. Well, we now know their secret…yoga!

Yoga Cats (and Dogs) is the work of Texan couple Dan and Alejandra Borris. Dan uses his photography and photoshop skills along with Alejandra’s yoga expertise combine to make a wonderful series of dogs and cats doing yoga. Yoga Dogs and cats calendars and books are available.

All the animals used in Dan’s work are from the The Animal Defense League, with a portion of profits donated to charity.

Tupperware containers solve these problems, but rarely look stylish. The Crick Cat Dry Food Container solves all these problems and looks stylish.

Available now for $64.95 from modernpet.com.au. Product Link.

Super cute new Purina ONE tv ad, shot in NZ by an award-winning kiwi film company, starring the cutest kiwi cats, plus a soundtrack by top muso Don McGlashan who resurrected an old French nursery rhyme specifically for this commercial.

I think my cats would pass out at the excitement of it all. And Alex may drop dead after eating it all…he’s not to bright poor boy.

I can’t string a sentence together about these, so here’s the first paragraph from the Neuticles web site:

Patented Neuticles are testicular implants for pets. Neuticles are available for canines, felines, equine, bulls or any pet which is neutered. Neuticles should be implanted when the pet is neutered – but can be implanted years afterwards in most cases.

On their web site they have a series of videos showing how the procedure takes place.

Seriously.

The, ahem, balls themselves just look like jelly beans. I wasn’t sure what I was expecting them to look like – but it wasn’t jelly beans, that’s for sure.
