    Contact lenses for pets!!!

    How cool are these?!!!

    I was getting some dried food from the vet's yesterday and they had contact lenses for cats! They aren't prescription, but are like the human ones that change the colour of your eyes for special occasions. They had turquoise, deep blue, violet and copper. I got the turquoise and violet to try on the tolerant Meezer boys at home - the results are below.

    It took about 30 minutes and some scratched arms to get them in (I won't be doing THAT too often!) and they're supposed to stay in for no more than 24 hours. You keep them in a saline solution and they can be used for about a month. Cost was $A19.95 for each pair. They are getting in lenses for dogs (small - medium about $24.95 and large dog about $29.95).

    I really like Tabasco's change from blue to turquoise. I think Mini looks a tad too much like Elizabeth Taylor for my liking.

    That's gorgeous. When will they come up with pet fur dye? Oh, the possibilities! Also, you should see if they have any contacts with really cool designs like stripes and spots.

    "Looks" soooo cute(but is NOT!!)!! There is NOOOOOOOOOO way Inka would let me put those in!!! I would be covered with scratches, but no lenses in her eyes yet
    But, no worries, this thingies are NOT going to be allowed in MY house... it sounds a bit like cat-abuse to me

    And what is the purpose of that? To change the colour of your cat's eyes? Oh please

    WHY would anyone want contacts for cats? (especially if they are ONLY cosmetic?)

    The eye colors on your furbabies are striking with those contacts.

    Interesting invention.

    I can't believe they let you put them in!

    Their eyes do look beautiful, I prefer Mini's violet eyes

    I just don't see the point in putting contact lenses in cats eyes!
    It's a sure way to get infections building I'll bet. Sorry couldn't do it to any cat - unless it was a surgical need.

    Tabasco and Mini are boys. They look very charming.
    Today - April's Fool Day - I would suspect Nicole of trying to fool us. What do you think, is it colored (I can do that on my home pc - I have a special programme) or it's really lenses?

    Although their eyes are beautiful I don't think there are really contacts for cats, PETA would have a fit for one, and I don't think people would really try it, I know I wouldn't. It would seem harmful to me at best.
