Jedi Pets

Animals Catch the Lightsaber Craze

— November 8, 2008 — Lifestyle
I couldn’t stop laughing when I caught onto this latest in pet trends. Watch out, all masters of evil: The Jedi Craze is upon us. And you never know which animal will use the force and pick up a light saber to kick your ass.

From squirrels to cats, rats and dogs, there is a wide variety of badass Jedis. There are even Yoda costumes for your pets if you want to take the fad all the way home. So now I expect we will see Darth Vader cats battling it out against Yoda rats and Princess Leia dogs.
