10 DIY Dog Collar Ideas Your Pooch Will Love
There are so many collars out there that you can dress your adorable pooch in. There are collars you can buy, like spiked, shimmer, the best GPD dog tracking collars, or even leather collars that you believe best suit your furry buddy.

11 DIY Cat Houses You Can Easily Make
We all know that feeling—we spend a ton of money on buying our cat the most beautiful, soft, expensive cat house we can find, only to see her more interested in an empty cardboard box than the $100 cat house you were convinced she would love. Now you've wasted money and your cat still doesn't have a nice place to call her own. Sure, that empty cardboard box is cool, but if your cat is anything like mine, she'll get excited about it and play with it for a day, then never touch it again. It's just one of those weird things your cat might do. Your kitty wants a warm place to snuggle, but if your lap is occupied, what can she do? Rather than keep spending money to find out which house may strike her fancy, make one of these DIY cat houses all your own! If she doesn't like it, it's not a big deal, since it took very little time and effort to make. And if she does, well, it's a win-win!

Easy DIY Recipes for Dog Shampoo
When it comes to washing our pups to make them squeaky clean, some of us are pretty precise on what type of shampoo to use. Because we know that there are shampoos out there that contain harsh chemicals that can irritate our dogs. Even if we wanted to get our hands on organic shampoos, just how expensive are those shampoos? Buying just two can empty out our wallets. And do we even dare spend so little on a cheap shampoo that might harm our dog? No way.

Rabbit Treats
There are many different kinds of rabbit treats available at pet stores, Walmart, Target, and other such superstores. Some are made of yogurt, some made of seeds and nuts all stuck together with a chewy, sticky treat, some a mix of dried vegetables and fruits, and others chunks of gooey fruit bits. All of these may look like candy for rabbits and you're sure your furry friend will love them, and chances are they will. However, if you were to flip the treat bag over and look at the ingredients, would you really think purchasing such a treat would be a good choice? One of the first ingredients is always sugar, followed by all kinds of weird chemicals you can't even pronounce that are used to keep the treats from expiring for a long time. Now, you may not think twice before putting a snack with such ingredients into your own mouth, but what about your rabbit? Over the years we as humans have developed all kinds of unnatural, man-made substances to make our food look better, taste better, and last longer. We have, more or less, gotten accustomed to such ingredients. Our furry friends on the other hand, are not use to such poisoning substances and feeding them to your rabbit can be very unhealthy for them.
