Animal Fair and Kibbles ‘n Bits Calendar Giveaway

Jane Lynch, Kristin Chenoweth, Jessica Biel and Josh Groban are among the stars featured and each shares info on their favorite animal charities — so you can spread the good cheer in the New Year.

We’re happy to be giving away three calendars to kick of ’11 right. To enter, send an email to popculturepassionistas@gmail.com with ANIMAL FAIR CALENDAR GIVEAWAY in the subject line. Winners will be drawn randomly and announced here on January 3, 2011.

For more information visit: scentsy.net.

The perfect holiday gift for the entire family, especially if you’re thinking of adopting a new pet from a shelter over the holidays is the Ubisoft Petz Nursery 2 video game. With this game animal lovers can bond virtually with 22 different animals from infancy, while discovering each breed’s tastes and distastes. Ubisoft Petz Nursery 2 helps players discover which pet is the right fit for your family, and adds to what you already know about existing beloved pets. Nurturing and creating relationships with baby “petz” includes feeding, providing shelter and watching them grow to maturity! Ubisoft Petz Nursery 2 goes for the soft price of $29.99. For more information visit: ubi.com.

Even the most spiritually Zen pet makes a mess every now and then, and with all the holiday celebrations coming up pet parents are also primed for the occasional cheerful spill.

The Cuddler Bed In Berry ($14.99) is a round plush comfy zone for dogs to easily climb into and relax – perfect for older canines. The Red Plaid Cat Bed ($18.74) will have your contented cat snuggling up to the stuffed sides, and the no skid bottom will keep even skittish kitties grounded. 

Felines will get feisty with the Sparkle Ball Feather Teaser ($4.46), a non-toxic toy proven to make cats purr and roar while exercising the holiday treats away. If your cat is more of a furturistic feline – the Petco Laser Ring Pet Toy ($2.99) will have your kitty pouncing endlessly after the moving red laser dot.

Crazy Critters pet toys will have your little crazy critters jumping for joy! The Fox & Raccoon Stuffing Free Toys ($9.99) with squeakers on both ends - are super soft and a dog’s perfect hunting toy.

If you’re planning some holiday travel with your snow bound pets or know a pet parent that is, artist William Wegman has created the gift for you! The William Wegman Crypton Super Fabric exclusive Throver works like a tarp but looks like a top line blanket. The “Throver” (for Rover) can be used to cover and protect outdoor car seats (from wet and muddy paws) and indoor sofas (when the fetch games begin). This must have pet present is available in two designs; Show (six colors) and Gameboard (five colors). The Throver is also easy to spot, machine clean, and is stain and odor resistant. The William Wegman for Crypton Fabric Throvers can be covered for $149.00. For more information visit: cryptonfabric.com.

NOTE: Do not give pets as gifts! This isn’t Scrooge speaking, but it is important that the receiver is ready to play, love and care for the pet 24 hours a day! Unlike an ugly pair of wool socks, pets aren’t gifts you can just toss aside or return. If you do know someone who’s ready to become a new “mommy or daddy,” make sure you remind them to adopt as there is every breed, size, color, shape and personality available!
