New Methods of Animal Cruelty

I will admit that I have done some cruel things to my pets over time (*cough*knit puppy and kitty sweaters*cough*). But this video goes too far.



My favorite is the write-up on the website, Wiikitty.com.

To the untrained eye, it would seem that this is the diabolical machination of a man who grew up giving the family cat dryer rides. But believe it or not, it’s not only totally safe, but is extremely calming to the animal! As explained by the PetSpa website:

Q: Does the pet Stress out when inside the Cabin?
A: Using our unique technology we are able to lower the stress on pets compared to traditional bathing due to the fact that we do not use a restraining system and there is no stranger restraining or holding the pet. Also our unique patented nozzle system will provide a hydro-massage shower that will relax the pet and increase circulation which is very beneficial.

I’ll bet it improves circulation! Just look at all the exercise that cat’s getting frolicking and bounding about in his soothing pleasure prison!

Q: How do you prevent water from pet’s eyes and ears?
A: The unique design was created by a team of Veterinaries, Animal Behaviorists and engineers looking for the well being of the Pet. There are nozzles in the bottom, top, and all sides but the front side, the pet will look through the safety glass door so no water will go directly in eyes or ears.

The pet will do this, or face dire consequences. Which are, presumably, being placed into a second PetSpa. Also, props to the crack 100-man design team that ruled out firing water from the glass window, you guys are awesome.
