It truly is the year of Star Wars. I mean it, just look around. Not only have we got the new movie coming out in five months, there’s the new Marvel comics series, Star Wars: Rebels on Disney XD and not to mention all the products they showed off at Toy Fair and Comic-Con. Lets face it, if you’re a fan of the saga this is your year!
There’s pretty much a product for almost everything now. But what about the fans that have pets? An untapped market until recently was products for fans with pets. Let it be cat or a dog, Petco has got you covered with their new Star Wars Pet Fan Collection. Now is the time for your pets to be just as geeky as their owners.
For a long while official products for your favorite properties just didn’t exist. Sure, there were cartoon characters: Bugs Bunny or Mickey Mouse products. Which is great, but what geeky pet owners really want is the power of the force. Well they’re now in luck, because with the new Star Wars collection, your dog or cat can now play in geeky style with some of the best looking and well developed products on the market.
For cats the products are very durable and fun. They have the Stormtrooper, Yoda or Droid mice that can be chewed or loved on. The best item many cat owners enjoy using is the TIE Fighter or Millennium Falcon on a string. I’ve personally seen this particular toy in use and the cats just went nuts. Now granted, a cat will go nuts for almost anything on a string. But knowing it’s the Falcon just makes it that much cooler. Petco even went as far to make official laser pointers with the Star Wars logos on them for the cat that maybe doesn’t like toys and would rather chase a red dot. Either way, Petco has whatever kind of toy your cat would like to play with.
Now the dog toys are the coolest things ever. Being a dog owner and having purchased many of the Star Wars collection, I can speak from experience to how much my dog loves the product and how durable they are. The stuffed squeaky toys range from Darth Vader, Droids, Boba Fett, Jabba and even the Ewoks. From something simple like a plush character that makes noise or plush with rope on the end of it for a tug-of-war battle. Each item is made with great care for your dogs’ safety and your satisfaction as a consumer.
If dressing up your animal for Halloween or just because you’re one of those people, Petco has got you there too: Vader, Chewbacca, Leia, Yoda and even a Jawa. You can dress your pet up in whatever character is your favorite. Or just a harness of your favorite character as well. Having one of the harnesses I can confirm, they well made, comfortable for the pet and long lasting. All things you need while taking your dog on it’s nightly walk.
Well what if your not into toys or dressing your animal up, but you would like something simple to express your geekdom with your animal? How about Vader or Wookie bowl to eat or drink out of? A Vader treat jar? Or go big and get a dog or cat bed that looks like Vader! Petco really thought of all sorts of products that any geek owner would want for their animal.
There are many products out there for your animal with from the Star Wars Pet Collection; really all depends on what you want. Again, as someone who has many of their products and is looking to getting many more from the 2015 and 2016 catalog, either in a store near you or Petco online store, you can feel better knowing the items are pet friendly, safe, very durable, affordable and just plain awesome. Don’t just take my word for it, check out how much my dog, Disco, loves her Tauntaun. And if a picture is worth a thousand words then this one is saying all the right things.
