banksyrabbit image 2 300x200 Banksys Village Pet StoreIf you’re not sure what that means, don’t worry, neither did we. And I think it’s safe to assume that Banksy invented it! And that the Banksy buzz is spreading fast. At the exhibit, you can find such run of the mill things as chicken nuggets eating BBQ sauce, a rabbit putting lipstick on, swimming breaded fish, and hot dogs moving under heat lamps. It’s the first time Banksy has used animatronics. One thing that might surprise you is that you can find a live leopard in the store front window. Starting the moment you read this, until October 31st (Halloween), Banksy’s pet store is officially open each and every daily from 10am until midnight. One piece of advice – Bring a video camera as still images don’t do the place justice!

Scratch Lounge

img box wcat Scratch LoungeThe SCRATCH LOUNGE will last far longer than other scratchers because of the reversible super-dense honeycomb construction of the pads. The design is so unique, it was issued a U.S. utility patent. SCRATCH LOUNGE even prevents cats from damaging furniture. They enjoy the SCRATCH LOUNGE one hundred times longer than any conventional one-sided scratcher. Cats spend more than half of their lives lounging, and would prefer not to do so on an old-fashioned scratcher. A portion of profits go to animal rescue, including free spay and neuter clinics.
