An Aquarium for fish who like to roam

October 29th, 2009 by Mark R in Pet Gadgets

Aqua-No-Stand1DIFI think that humans are probably the only animals who feel a need to have rooms in their domicile. A bear can sleep in a wide-open cave, a fox can sleep in a tiny hole, and a fish, when in captivity, sleep in a bowl.

If we lived like our pet fish, then we would all live in studio apartments that would, at best, have more useless space. Now this aquarium is something that would give any fish bragging rights. I mean, I can just see a celebrity fish boasting about this “bowl” on a fish version of Cribs.

Wearable Hummingbird Feeder

October 26th, 2009 by Edwin in Home Gadgets, Pet Gadgets

eye2eyeThe Wearable Hummingbird Feeder which is also known as “eye 2 eye”, was specially formulated to help you get up close and personal with the way a hummingbird feeds. Based on a full-face face shield, you don’t have to worry about having your eyes pecked out while you see your pet hummingbird feast right in front of your face.

Using and enjoying the feeder is a two step process. The first is to acquaint the hummingbirds with the feeder. We set an old can of paint on a small shelf on the side of the barn and slipped the feeder onto the can. It wasn’t long before the hummingbirds found it, and after a little searching, found the feeding station. (See the Longer Video for how this happened.) Then we let them get familiar with the feeder for a few days. Finally we set a chair next to the shelf, removed the feeder from the can, slipped it on and waited. One never forgets the first time a hummingbird suddenly arrives at the feeder right in front of your eyes. It is truly an awesome experience! (Definite adrenaline rush!) There you are, just sitting there, when WHOOSH a hummingbird jumps into your vision as if by magic! Definitely a treat.

Definitely a treat if you want to introduce your little ones to the wonderful world of nature and all that live in it, where the Wearable Hummingbird Feeder is currently going for $79.95 each.

Drink No More prevents pets from toilet drinking

October 18th, 2009 by Ally in Home Gadgets, Pet Gadgets

Pets for some reason insist upon drinking from the toilet.  Perhaps the water is far better in there than what they find in their bowl.  Well if you would like to protect your pet from themselves, you can pick up this small gadget to help you out.  Since you can’t be around to see absolutely everything, you can attach this to the lid of the toilet.  Then if someone doesn’t put the lid down, you can still find out when your pet is up to no good.

Finicky Feeders hides a treat for picky dogs

September 22nd, 2009 by Ally in Pet Gadgets

finicky-feeder-dog-bowl

I can’t say that I’ve ever had much of an issue with my dog eating too little.  He always seems more than happy to eat anything and everything he can.  At times he even manages to eat things that most would not consider edible.  However, if you’re having issues with your dog not eating enough and need them to gain some weight, this would be one way to do that.  It’ll not only help them finish their food, but give them something a little extra at the end of their meal.

Riddex Talking Dog Collar does double duty

September 15th, 2009 by Ally in Pet Gadgets

6a00d8341c5dea53ef0120a56ab571970b-800wi

Most dog collars have shiny metal dog tags listing where the dog comes from and lets whoever know that’s found him that they are up to date on their shots.  This one lets people know in a slightly different way.  Instead of reading something, it tells it out loud.  Which does seem a little silly, but it does even more than that.  It also makes sure to keep your dog pest free and comfortable.

Petcare Robot: Play with your pet from a distance

September 15th, 2009 by Mark R in Conceptual Gadgets, Pet Gadgets, Remote Control Toys, Toys

petcare-robotThe first time I saw this picture, I thought someone took an alien head and mounted it on the body of a UFO. In reality, this is the PetCare robot, a mobile webcam that allows you to monitor your pet from a distance.

I know when I leave my dog alone for a while, I would feel better if he was occupied by playing with this toy rather than chewing up my garbage. This is assuming that I have nothing better to do on my vacation than operate this toy on the Internet.

Not only is this camera/toy mobile by remote control through the Internet, but the ball that it bears is also remote control as well. In fact, the ball can be charged in the mobile camera itself. I’m not certain how the robot can be charged, or if it can be charged from a distance.

Autofetch motion pet ball

September 13th, 2009 by Edwin in Pet Gadgets

autofetch-ballDogs somehow love playing fetch, and I suspect that this Autofetch motion pet ball is more for the owner than the pet – after all, most pooches would be more than happy to play with their favorite ball throughout their lifetime, and won’t need improvements on a simple ball. What happens when your four-legged friend is more choosy? Guess the Autofetch motion pet ball might prove to be the catalyst required, as it requires you to put a small piece of food into the treat slot, giving the ball a slight shake to get the internal auto-motion gyroscope started. This allows the ball to start moving around randomly, and will come to a complete stop only after it does not receive any interaction for a minute. Perfect for restless dogs, but not so good when it comes to enforcing discipline.
