Reality star and entrepreneur Holly Madison prefers to always have an animal nearby. From her childhood to "The Girls Next Door" to her move to Las Vegas, pets are a big part of Madison's life. To give back to the furry souls that serve as a constant source of happiness, Madison had created Lucky Pet Products, a line of durable and stylish dog toys. The best part is that Lucky Pets Products' promotions feature shelter pets to help spread the word about all the wonderful animals up for adoption. Madison took a break from her busy schedule, preparing for her new baby and all her pets to tell us about her line and how animals continue to affect her life in a positive way every day.

ANSWER:
"I have three dogs — all rescue mixed breeds. They are adorable little handfuls! I always say two dogs make a cute set of play pals, three dogs make a cacophony. I also have two ferrets, they are wonderful pets. I named them Sid and Nancy, and their personalities couldn't be more different. Sid is mischievous and energetic; Nancy is super mellow and sweet."

Do you think being a pet parent has helped prepare you for being a first-time mom? If so, how?
-
ANSWER:
"I don't think there's anything that can prepare me for being a first-time parent, but having a bunch of animals definitely keeps you in check in that you always have these little guys to be responsible for.
You can't just take off whenever you want and not arrange for them to be taken care of and have everything they need at all times. They are totally dependent!"

Pleeze! It's just another way for her to get back into the media. No one buys Martha Stewart pet products at PetSmart, why???? Because they are 90% more than any other toys, treats or products in the entire store.
