Items related to VIPS: Very Important Pets
Synopsis
Across the world, pets inspire love and indulgence - as confidantes, companions and pampered family members. Any pet owner knows that pets have their own distinct personalities and quirky character traits. VIPs - Very Important Pets gives us a glimpse into the pet-loving side of famous world leaders, royalty, actors and artists. For generations, dogs, horses and other pets have kept the British Royals company, eating with them and travelling with them. Hollywood celebrities are not far behind. Everyone has heard stories of Hollywood's pampered pets. Some have even been immortalized on celluloid - Lassie and Boots, to name just a few. Presidential pets at the White House have often been more popular than their owners, and have provided a treasure trove of animal anecdotes. The sky is the limit when it comes to the lengths people go to pamper their pets. In North America and across Europe, there are hotels, restaurants, bakeries and even fitness centres catering to pets! VIPs - Very Important Pets tells us these, as well as other stories of special pets and their famous owners from around the world.
