For a wide range of wonderful presents for your pet, visit Pets at Home – where pets come first!

I love Christmas. Its not just because everyone is at home, nor that I get more walks after they have eaten rather large dinners, but because I get presents; sometimes it is something special to eat like a large chewie, a new collar or lead, a new bed, or best of all a new squeekie toy – why is that best? – because it drives them mad as I run all over the house squeeking it. Needless to say, it does not take long before my new squeekie toy is put away!

A great online store for a super range of pet-related goodies is Pets at Home; they offer the ultimate pet shop experience. They have all the pet supplies, pet food, toys and accessories you and your pet need at great value prices.

Designer dogs, cool cats and refined rabbits – The Pet Extraordinarium is an online pet shop that offers luxury pet products and designer pet accessories for modern, discerning owners. Some call them a pet boutique, but they prefer to think of themselves as a lifestyle store for pet owners, providing you with great quality, luxury pet accessories, personal service and additional rewards from their loyalty scheme, PetExtra.

Keeping a pet is a lot easier when they don’t really exist. There’s no scratched furniture or unpleasant messes to clear up with the EyePet – and he’s lot a cleverer then a pet hamster. Using the PlayStation Eye camera, you can watch as your own unique pet grows and evolves, learning new skills as you teach him. You can even draw an object on a piece of paper – like a spaceship or a car – and have the PlayStation Eye scan it in and turn into a virtual object that the EyePet can play with.

Owning a pet has suddenly gone high tech.

Key Features

Interact and play with your own unique virtual pet via the PlayStation Eye camera, just as if he was a real creature.
