The smarty-pantses at fashion house United Bamboo have gone to the dogs. Well, actually, they've gone to the cats, having created what is possibly the best calendar in the history of calenders (and, you guys, that's a lot of calenders). Yes, they have given frisky felines the chance to model some of their fiercest pieces.

The photos, taken by Noah Sheldon for United Bamboo, give catwalk a whole new meaning, are we right?

Animal Sites We Love: Pets in Clothes

We know what you're thinking: By now you've seen so many pets in clothes that you're almost surprised when you see naked pets. Dressed pets are the norm. The novelty has worn off, and you wish people would stop bothering you about it.

But what if there was a site where you could rate pictures of animals in apparel? What if your opinion could be heard? What if you could have a say in what's cute and what's humiliating? Now there is such a site: Pets in Clothes.

The site runs just like that old internet staple HOT or NOT, but without the guilt of objectifying people. You simply cycle through pictures of animals in clothes and rate them between 1 and 10, although the site doesn't really explain what the ratings are meant to indicate. Cuteness? Level of confusion on the animal's face?

So if you're looking for a new timesink in which to dispose of all your productivity, petsinclothes.com offers a distraction so cute that you might just start shouting out ratings to pets on the street.
