If You Need Fur to Keep Warm, You’ve Got Problems - Giglianne Braga, Benjamin Elliott, and Justin Gaston Feature in PeTA Ad

PETA adverts have become so synonymous with nudity that expecting stars to pose with their clothes on in photo shoots is something next to ineffectual (won’t say impossible). So replicating the same frenzy, a latest shoot features stars of the popular web series If I Can Dream Giglianne Braga, actor Benjamin Elliott, and Justin Gaston in the buff to endorse the tagline: If You Need Fur to Keep Warm, You’ve Got Problems.

Ben says…

I didn’t know animals got treated that way and [are] literally skinned alive … that’s awful.

Giglianne sounds a bit shocked as she says…

I don’t understand how people can do that, really. Just torture and kill like that for the sake of fashion.

'Archiquarium': Split Level Home for Your Fish - - Designed By Swedish Designer Karl-Oskar Ankarberg

You cannot touch and play with the fish like you do with your four legged furry pets. Perhaps that is why the fish don’t get the status of a favorite pet. Even the aquariums that are normally available don’t do much to elevate the status of the humble fish. Swedish designer Karl-Oskar Ankarberg has taken on the plight of the fish, designing an attractive split-level home called the Archiquarium. If you compare them to a normal aquarium then they definitely qualify as a luxury home for the fish.

Ankarberg makes the upper level of his “modern living for trendy goldfish” out of white Corian with black Corian for the ground floor, resulting in exceptionally-crafted aquatic digs suitable in almost any home or office. It is not just trendy and modern but luxurious as well with provision for natural light and windows for optimum viewing.

Both the upper and lower levels have panoramic windows so the fish can be viewed as they travel around, swimming freely between the floors. Two more windows at the rear and side of the tank, along with a big skylight installed in the lower level offer optimum viewing pleasure. It will be unveiled during Stockholm’s home fair Hem 2010 and made available for sale thereafter.

Amazing Dogs Enjoying "Catwalk" on The Ramp - - First Ever Pet Fashion Week in Brazil’s Business Capital Sao Paulo

Brazil: Latin America held its first ever Pet Fashion Week with stylish dogs ‘catwalk’ on the ramp in Brazil’s business capital Sao Paulo.

The "model" dogs wore looks by six Brazilian and three foreign designers, drawing loud sighs and laughter from the public. Leather jackets, fancy party dresses, hats and even bath robes designed especially for dogs colored the runway during the thirty-minute show.

New York, Tokyo and Moscow have hosted previous editions of Pet Fashion Week.

Four Dogs, Owned by Tammy Kassis, to Live in $20,000 House Designed by Alan Mowrer of La Petite Maison

You would have seen some interesting dog houses but probably nothing worth $20,000. This dog house is a replica of a regular house, except the fact that it is smaller and all the furniture are placed on the ground, since you don’t expect dogs to jump to reach a box.

A 42 year old dog owner, Tammy Kassis decided to build a home for her three dogs who were petrified of a ‘naughty’ owl.

She requested Alan Mowrer of La Petite Maison based out of Denver to take up the task of building a special home for her dogs. The ‘lucky’ dogs now live in an exclusive house with hardwood floors, air conditioners, heaters, doors and windows with curtains. The house also has a garden with fence which protects them from the outsiders.

The proud owner of the dogs, Tammy Kassis lives with her husband outside of Los Angeles. The dogs, Chelsea, Coco Puff, and Darla mean a lot to her. She also plans to gift them a plasma TV, so that they can watch their favorite channel, Animal Planet. This dogs house is an object of envy and owner’s pride.

Groomair Electric Vacuum Brush - - Can be Used on Animals Before the Fur Falls Out With The Pleasure Your Pet Can Feel

Having pets at home is one of the coolest things to do, for they shower you with love and affection. However, when the season of shedding arrives, your house would be full of animal fur. If you are familiar with cats, you would know that they shed hair several times a year and every time they do it, your floor and sofa and other pieces of furniture would be covered with cat hair.

In order to solve this problem, here is a cool vacuum cleaner that does just that. Groomair Electric Vacuum Brush can be used on animals before the fur falls out. They are safe to use and the pet even receives a pleasurable massage. There are also brush attachments which can be adjusted depending on the length of the hair of your cat or other animals.

The pleasant massage could be extremely joyous to your cat and you would have it purring next to you, while you collect all the annoying fur inside the vacuum cleaner. It can be used easily and costs $78. I would say, go ahead and get it if you have a cat opr some other animal at home. It would not only keep your house clean but would also give the pleasure of massages to your cat.
