Screw Real Pets, Flat Pets Get All the Glory of Adventurous Life

— September 7, 2009 — Lifestyle
Let’s face it: three dimensional pets are overrated. They poop, they whine, they need attention and frankly, sometimes they smell. To solve the problem, Garudio Studiage has created the Flat Pets World Tour - pets that are just as adventurous as you and need absolutely no care. Awesome.

Garudio Studiage’s site states that “Flat Pets don’t normally like going outside, but these four are different. They will set off this June on a journey around the outside world. They will each go to the home of a friend of Garudio Studiage and then continue their travels with some of their friends.”

I checked out the site's pictures, and frankly, I’m a little jealous of these little critters' travels. The little kitten looks so smitten by the fact that he has laid eyes on amazingly documented scenes in his cross-continent travels.
Trend Themes
1. Flat Pet Tourism - Create flat pet experiences for digital nomads and remote workers to keep them company and entertained during their travels.
2. Virtual Pet Ownership - Develop virtual pet ownership apps that allow users to have the joys of pet ownership without the hassle and responsibility of taking care of a real pet.
3. Social Media Flat Pet Influencers - Capitalise on the flat pet trend by partnering with popular social media influencers to promote your product or service by featuring their flat pet on their channels.
Industry Implications
1. Tourism - Innovate the tourism industry by offering exciting experiences like flat pet tourism to attract younger generations who enjoy unique travel experiences.
2. Tech - Develop and market virtual pet ownership apps to cater to the growing demand for virtual companionship and entertainment among consumers.
3. Marketing - Offer flat pet influencer marketing packages to drive brand awareness and engage with social media followers in a fun and creative way.
