My Cat Annie is a fun collection of videos of Ze Frank’s cat Annie. I especially like “Stealth” and “Fetish”. He also has a very funny video blog called “The Show With ZeFrank”, which may not be for everyone since it sometimes contains adult topics and language.

Another Alternative to Elizabethan Collar
The Neck’s Best Thing Collar is another alternative to the dreaded Elizabethan collar (also known as a cone or lampshade collar). This collar doesn’t look as durable as the BiteNot Collar I’ve previously written about, but it still looks useful and very versatile. You cut this collar to size and you can customize it. It can be cut for a splint or used like a compression bandage for the abdomen. And it can be used on dogs, cats, even birds. (It was originally made for a bird named Hagar who had a feather plucking problem.)
I already have a BiteNot Collar, but I’m planning on getting a Neck’s Best Thing Collar for our earthquake kit.
Check out these other alternatives to Elizabethan collars:
- the BiteNot collar
- the DIY Body-Sock
- the Optivisor & the Novaguard
Yoga Kitty
“Yoga Kitty” by Peter Organa.
Peter has a real talent for capturing the personality of his subject. Not surprisingly, he’s a professional pet photographer in Toronto. You can see more of his work on flickr.com under “piotr m”. These are a few more of my favorites.
Brake-Fast Dog Bowl
The Brake-Fast Dog Bowl is an interesting idea. It’s designed to avoid bloat by slowing your dog’s food consumption. This is how it works.
You can read about some other alternatives—the Tricky Treat Ball and the Twist ‘n Treat.
Update: Now available in metal.
