Best-Dressed Pet: Weird and Wacky Animal Apparel
If you have a dog (or know someone who does), chances are good that the dog is better-dressed than most people. Doggie clothes are big business. According to the American Pet Products Association, we spent over ten billion dollars on pet supplies and accessories in 2009, not including food or veterinary care. That’s ten billion dollars spent on sparkly collars, fuzzy sweaters, and all manner of bizarre and borderline ridiculous pieces of apparel. And if you thought cats were safe from the pet-cessory craze, think again.
Dog-kini
So much for being jealous about pets’ ability to run around naked. If you’re worried that your pup’s showing a little too much fur at the beach, outfit her with the Sunset Red HulaHound Bikini from the Posh Puppy Boutique. ($29.99)

Feline Feather Boa

Doggles
If your dog likes to hang his head out the window of the car, enjoys riding on boats, or has a secret identity as the Red Baron, he’ll need these lenses to protect his eyes from debris and damaging UV light. Doggles ($17.99 from Doctors Foster and Smith) come with a chin strap, but keeping them on your dog’s head is ultimately something you’ll have to figure out on your own.

Banter Bands
Your pup wants to show his lifestyle affiliations, but LiveStrong bracelets are too big and human-focused. The Colorful Banter Bands ($8.95 for the set of five at Jake’s Dog House) have slogans a dog can relate to, like “Run Fast,” “Bark Loud,” and “Bite Hard.”

Hooded Bath Towel
This is perfect for snuggling with your kitty right after she’s gotten out of a warm bath. Although anyone who attempts to snuggle with an angry, wet cat deserves whatever is coming to them. (Available for $14.99 at Poochie Heaven)

Butt Cover
Your dog is so cute. Too bad about that unsightly butt expelling unspeakable smelly things.

Puppy Panties
These panties could be used for protecting female dogs in heat, but they’re so girly and delightful, it’d be a shame not to wear them out on the town. ($14.95 at Bow Wow’s Best)
