Last Christmas I was searching for that special gift for my daughter and I was looking for something that would be a little more magical than your average wind up toy, or board game. Of course she wanted a puppy or a rat. I tried to find a compromise and I think I found something pretty cool, while its not a rat, it is quite beautiful to behold and easy to care for. We set it up this weekend.

Welcome Glofish, really amazing fish originally bred to help scientists detect environmental pollutants( that add vibrant color and excitement to your tank.) These little fish are flourescent and seem to retain the light, or glow. When coupled with a special blacklight aquarium, the effect is nothing short of psychadelic. While they are as easy to care for as regular fish, there isnt anyone who hasnt seen the tank and been mesmerized.

Glofish are unique, and their sale is covered by a number of patents and pending patent applications, so unfortunately at the present time these fish are only available in the United States (except California) The fish are available in Starfire red, Sunburst orange, Electric green, Cosmic blue and the new Galactic purple. The fish are available online or in-store at select retailers, check petsmart.com  to see the fish, available for around 5 bucks a piece.

For the ultimate display of your new friends you may want to opt for a Glofish aquarium, optimized with special color enhancing LEDs that dramatically enhance the look of your fish and are available from amazon.com for around 42 dollars.

So we love our new aquarium and she uses it like a nightlight, enjoying her glow in the dark fish.. but we all know she still wants a rat. Right?

Of course, since not everyone has a job that has stable, 9-to-5 working hours, walking the dog might end up as an activity that has to be done when dusk falls, or even late at night. Doing so can not only be dangerous for your dog, but for you as well, since you might actually end up being mugged or worse (touch wood here!), especially when you do not carry any light source with you. Hence, the $39.95 Illuminating Pet Leash that says it all – the flashlight unit is mounted to the top of the leash handle, sporting 9 powerful LED. A built in storage compartment on the handle will stash away a waste bag, and the entire device is powered by a trio of AAA batteries. This is meant for small and medium sized breeds only, as any pooch heavier than 36 lbs. might just break the leash without much pulling effort.

This motorized toy will bob and sway its “teaser” (a feather- and bell-bedecked ball that is hanging on a tether), where it will taunt the cat to spring into action. Should you turn the “Play While You Are Away” mode on, this toy will automatically transform itself by going on for another two more 10-minute sessions, sporting a two-hour rest period between. A suction cup located under the motor will be able to hold the toy to any smooth surface, while making sure the target remains within striking range. Just in case Garfield gets a little rough, there are two teaser ball replacements included. The While You’re Away Cat Toy is powered by a trio of AAA batteries.

No results.

This programmable device is capable of dispensing kibble automatically, making sure your beloved feline is properly fed on schedule – and I am quite sure dog kibble would work fine, too, although a dog who has yet to be house-trained to do its potty business at the same spot might not be such a good idea to be away from for a couple of days. This model ensures no jams happen thanks to a patented flexible drive mechanism which is said to be virtually impossible to clog. It plays nice with moist of wet kibble, so go on and take that long deserved break without any worries!

This countertop dehydrator will let you gain control over the quality of treats your pets consume, where it will gently blow warmed air through the five ventilated trays in order to gradually remove moisture from homemade foods that are made using only the finest ingredients of your choice. This will in turn preserve the snacks, transforming their texture into the kind of chewy, crunchy foods that will result in strong teeth, reduced plaque while adding a healthful supplement to a pet’s diet. Each purchase will come with a book of 25 inventive recipes to get you started as well, now how about that?
