DOG STROLLERS LETS INDOOR PETS GO FOR A RIDE

Just when you've seen it all there is a new device on the market designed to make travelling on foot with cat or dog as easy as a walk in the park. Called the Kittywalk Pet Stroller, it is for both dogs and cats and it is being marketed to city dwellers who have trouble toting their pet carriers for any distance, for dogs who can no longer walk very far on their own or don't care to, and for indoor kitties to get a good walk outdoors.
The pet stroller comes in two sizes, one for animals up to 25 lbs. and the SUV version for pets up to 50 lbs. It claims an easy folding mechanism is collabsible for storage and has a one button brake release.
"A trip to the vet is no longer a test of the owners strength and endurance" promises the promotional literature. The device consists of two elements. One is the portable carrier of open mesh that was designed for use with the stroller or by itself as an alternative to the standard plastic carriers that are known to get stuffy inside. The second element is the stroller with a custom platform designed for use with the carrier or by itself to haul other items. In the back half of the carrier there is a "privacy parlor" which is a covered and curtained area that allows the dog or cat to turn it's back on the party if the stroll doesn't suit.
