There's nothing I enjoy more on a Saturday afternoon than watching Animal Planet. Today I was watching a show called "Cats 101". Many different breeds are discussed in-depth and later summarized based upon life expectancy, health and whether or not they are good family pets.
Out of everything I saw on today's episode, one thing stuck with me. There's a cat groomer in Upstate New York who uses the leftover fur from Persian cats to create purses. Here's a video clip from Animal Planet:
As described in the video, I think I'm one of the "ew people". There's just something about it that doesn't sit right with me. On the other hand, I suppose it could be a cool keepsake. I am not at all surprised that people are willing to spend up to $400 for a cat fur purse. I also appreciate that it's humane and resourceful, but I'd prefer my Silky Yorkie's fur over Persian cat fur.
