| WOW, people actually do this? Piercing and tattooing themselves is one thing, but their pets too? If they want to go through the pain of piercings and tattoos, they should go ahead and do it ... But, that doesn't mean they should purposely inflict these pains on their pets. Especially for something that will only be used for visual purposes. |

| Unless it is for ID purposes I think it is stupid to even consider. |

| My Ass was Pierced I would never ever pierce any of my animals, however I had a miniature donkey. The breeder had between 60 and 70 Jenny's and most of them had little ones. To be able to quickly identify the donkeys he used ear tags. When these tags were removed it left a large hole. As the hole healed I had this brilliant idea to let him wear an earring --his registered name was Diamond Jack Jiggles -- Diamond because of his earring, Jack 'cause he was a jack (male) and Jiggles because when he ran his cute little belly jiggled. My boys had so much fun telling all their friends that their mom's ass was pierced. |

| I tend to agree with the "unnecessary cruelty" of piercing and tattooing our pets.... I just happen to stumble on that site following an idea I had while staring at my precious Natalie (like I do sometimes for HOURS and HOURS at a time!!! haha!! - I'm SO in love!!) I thought how sweet she might look with tiny little pink diamond studs in her (WAY too big for her tiny little "mousehead") ears!!! So, the moment we got home, I hopped online hoping to find some related product out there that would satisfy my seemingly insatiable desire to "embellish" my little darling even more!! The little stickers that people sometimes use on their nails are cute... but I wanted something more "elite" looking.... And here's what I found!! What a neat idea!! No piercings - - yet "real" jewelry! And MAGNETIC!! (aren't there many positive clinical test results regarding the benefits of magnetics in both people AND pets??) So... yes.... I think we'll just HAVE to have them!! Now they may not be a "thing of perfection" if in fact, you have a pet who tends to scratch, pull or whatever - at their ears... or maybe has fur-siblings who'd like to chomp one off pop it like a tic-tac.... but for short periods, photos or outings - I think they're just the sweetest! (although I'm having a hard time locating the PINK!!) Oh... and check out the crystal tiara's!!! OMG!!! <<gigglin'>> (of course, the "tiara harness" goes around the ears though... not great for doggies with UPPIE ears!) Here's the link if anyone else is as silly as I ...... http://www.thegildedpaw.com/store/do...lasso?unq=1760
