Aminals: March 2008 Archives

furcoats.jpgBritish couple Beth and Brian Willis found a great way to keep the memory of their dead pets alive – by wearing their fur everyday! To honor their beloved dogs, Kara and Penny, the Willises knitted his and hers "jumpers" out of their hair.

According to Mrs. Willis, "It is not actually a hair but a wool, which is why it is so good for clothes. It would just fall off the dogs and I would run a wet hand over the carpet and pick it up. We found out from the breeders we got the pups from that it was possible to use their coat for clothes. Apparently it is quite popular with lots of the people who breed long-haired dogs.”

Thanks for the tip!


This robo mosquito-dog is so plucky and resilient, and has the daintiest, pranciest, feyest little feetsticks I've ever seen!

This ad for wool company Heng Yuan Xiang is apparently annoying the shit out of China. I guess that chirping girl voice is reading the name of each animal from the Chinese zodiac three times. That part's certainly annoying, but It's that looping Reichian music cue that really makes me want to put a nailgun to my temple.

Ad kicks in at 0:10.

If you couldn’t get enough of the slow lorises over at OMG Blog yesterday, get a load of these mini pigs from Pennywell Farm—the smallest pigs in the world!

Apparently, you can have your very own pair for only $300. Each is like one little bacon strip!

Thanks to Nikki C.'s mom for the cute tip.
