Cat-Eating Shark Beds

Nanotechnology Shark Shaped Pet Bedding is Scary and Self Cleaning

— May 24, 2012 — Art & Design
Your pets are like babies; you want to give them the best care possible, and one of the first places to start is a good night's sleep achieved with the shark shaped pet bedding.

Perfect for any small animal, this piece will have you double-taking every time your cuddly canine crawls out of their little realm. Made in Japan with nanotechnology, the fabric is self-cleaning in terms of bacteria and ammonia, as well as capable of eliminating odours.

The bed comes in two different sizes, so even if your pooch or kitty is a little on the hefty side, they will not miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime experience. How often can your pet emerge from the jaws of death so easily unscathed? They will love it so much you'll start wanting a human-sized one for yourself.
