Crazy Pet Products

It’s time to reveal the all time craziest pet products circulating the globe. Some will make you laugh while others will leave you scratching your head in disbelief. Nadia Crighton investigates.

The immense range of products available for our cats and dogs can send any sane person into a complete head in a spin. There are some pure inspirational creations that have certainly served us well as pet owners, while some are…hmmmmm…interestingly amusing, to say the least. This is our Top 10 Craziest Pet Products. Decipher for yourself the useful, and the plain bizarre.

1) The Pet High Chair

No you haven’t misread. This is an actual product. The Pet High Chair allows your dog to eat at the table right next to you. Similar to a child’s clip-on high chair (the type you attach to the table), this chair is easily assembled and can hold pets that weight up to 4.5kg. It seems this product is no longer available but surely deserved a mention in our top 10!

2) Heated Bowls

The heated outdoor cat bowl will ensure you pet’s food stays warm and ice-free. Quite an innovative product, especially if you live in freezing conditions and are unable to feed your cat indoors. Or have an overly fussy cat who likes their dinner kept warm?

3) Automatic Kitty Litter Box

These products are very impressive, if you have the cash to splash you’ll never have to consider a stinky kitty litter box ever again. These smart devices automatically sift the kitty litter and dispose of it into a garbage bag. Meaning all you have to do it collect the bag and pop it in the bin. EASY! Plus most brand come with carbon filters to ensure no more nasty litter odors.

4) Butt Stickers

That’s right. Embarrassed about your pooches rear-end when they trot with their tails held high? Well worry no more. You can now purchase handy stickers that you can literally cover your dog’s bottom with! The stickers come in a range of designs including flowers, sheriff badges, smiley faces and more. The product is even available for cats.

5) Inflatable Unicorn Horn – For Cats

7) Nail Covers and Caps for Dogs and Cats

You kitty doesn’t like having their nails clipped but they keep getting stuck in the carpet and furniture? Then this is the product for you. These little plastic caps simply slip over your cat’s nails preventing them from catching or scratching anything of importance. There is also a dog variety on offer.

8) Dog Cologne and Perfume

Want to spruce up your pooch in the smell department? There is a massive range of doggy smells on the market that will get your pooch smelling like a million dollars. They come in a huge variety of smells, bottles, and price ranges. Some are even tailored to a particular sex, size, and age.

9) Rain Coats and Umbrellas

These great raincoats contain built in hoods that act as an umbrella for your pooch in the rain. You may get some strange looks but your pet will stay dry-as-a-bone! There are also umbrellas you can purchase that allow you to hold the handle by your side, as the umbrella is opened over your pet. Very clever, but some of you may just want to wait until the weather passes before venturing out.

10) Dog Poop Catcher

This device allows your dog to take a poop while out-and-about, without you having to pick up the mess! Simply strap the device around the back of your dog (like a harness), placing the bag over their bottom area…then once they need to toilet the bag is already there waiting to catch the waste…easy!
