Newsflash: animals aren’t prudes

This may just be the most ridiculous photo I’ve ever seen:

Hide their shame!

If images really are worth a thousand words, chances are “what the hell?” or “for fuck’s sake” are amongst the first few that come to mind. And, believe it or not, someone is actually trying to market this:

Is your pet feeling left in the dirt because of his/her unsightly rear? I’ve got them covered... Rear Gear is handmade in Portland, OR and offers a cheerful solution to be-rid your favorite pet’s un-manicured back side.

Yes … I’m sure that cats and dogs, what with spending their entire lives without clothes and whose hygiene includes licking their own junk and sniffing each other’s buttholes, are really sensitive about the state of their rears and would love nothing more than to cover up their indecency with little multicolored plastic doodads.

Seriously, though, I’m still fairly confident that this is just the entrepreneur’s cheeky sense of humor showing through her merchandise as opposed to an actual reflection of how shallow and stupid the US is becoming in terms of prudishness and censoring “offensive” sights and content. But nonetheless, the fact remains … come on.
