Gift Guide: The Pet Lover

Pet love

Pets have it hard. Really. All day long, they're hustling for food, napping like it's going out of style, and assiduously avoiding requests for help with chores. Plus if you're as lucky, your pets take it upon themselves to inspect the garbage regularly, leave "fun" surprises around the house, and make sure you're awake long before your alarm goes off. What would we do without them?  

Pet lover's gift guide

This holiday season, spoil your pet 'cause heaven knows they're heartbreakingly deprived the rest of the year. Nothing says 'thanks for pooping on the rug' like a new doggie sweater, and a Fair Trade artisan collar will look smashing viewed from beneath when kitty sits on your face 'til you feed her. Finally, be sure to splurge on organic treats to augment the raw allergenic diet the vet recently prescribed. Your pets might already be better dressed and fed than you are, but hey, no reason to buck the trend now.

P.S. I really don't know what I'd do without my pets, all four of them! Who else would I spoil? Shopping Guide: 1. Emergency Kit for Dogs 2. Beaded Pet Collar 3. Bloomingdale's Dog Bowl 4.
