Paris Buys Pug to Get Over Guy
Some girls get a new haircut or pricey pair of shoes to move on after a breakup. Paris Hilton, however, isn't like most girls, and after a split from Doug Reinhardt, she's consoling herself with a new Pug puppy. The puppy is sure to find friends in Hilton's menagerie, which, according to the Daily Mail, currently includes 17 chihuahuas and a Pomeranian. According to Hilton's Twitter feed, the little fella's name is Mugsy.
Sea Lion Pup Goes Climbing
Forget "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof"; we've got a sea-lion on a rooftop deck in Newport Beach, Calif. The pup climbed the outdoor stairs to Mike Kai's rooftop deck, according to the Orange County Register. Kai took a few pictures and shot a short video of the little guy before Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach snagged him. The pup, aptly named "Fiddler," weighs about 40 percent less than he should, and -- fingers, er, fins crossed -- will be released after two to three months of rehabilitation.
Kitten Safe and Sound After Car Engine Ride
Three days after taking a harrowing trip in the engine of a Sydney Highway Patrol Car, Cartwright, a 4-week-old kitten was back in the arms of the man who saved him, reports the Sydney Morning Herald. Senior Constable Tex Tannous heard the kitten meowing under the hood of his police vehicle but it took mechanics to actually get the cat out of the hot engine. Although Cartwright was terrified after his two-hours in the engine, the kitty was uninjured.
Australian Restaurant Must Apologize and Pay After Refusing Entry to "Gay" Dog
In both strange and infuriating news, a blind man's guide dog wasn't allowed to enter an Australian restaurant last year because the staff thought they heard the man's friend refer to the dog as a "gay" dog, not a "guide" dog, reports the Huffington Post. The dog's owner will be receiving an apology and $1,400 in compensation for the incident.

At last month's Golden Globes ceremony, the swag -- aka the free stuff -- was flowing as usual. Except that amidst the fancy clothes, sparkly jewelry, decadent spa treatments and more, celebs were being gifted with those cute little micro pigs everyone's been clamoring for -- and concerned about -- since Paris Hilton trotted out her own squealing piglet.
GBK, a luxury lifestyle gifting and special events company, included in its Golden Globes swag some lovely truffle salt, truffle oil and oh, yes, a certificate from Patty's Royal Dandie Miniature Pet Pig farm for a free pig -- valued at $5,000. New owners would be required to complete a one-hour course (a whole hour!) on caring for the squiggly piggly (which can range in size from 19 to 39 pounds depending on the type of pig) and then the animal would be hand delivered to the celeb.

"Doug and I will be lying in bed, watching DVDs, and she'll just lie there between us," she told Hello! magazine when she showed off her tiny pig wrapped in a pink blanket during a Christmas photo shoot.
Along with Victoria Beckham, who owns two of the must-have pigs, Hilton helped fuel the micro-pig craze when she purchased Miss Piglette. Hilton's new BFF, who will grow up to be just 14 inches, is the latest addition to the 28-year-old's pack of 13 pets.
While Hilton's pricey piggy might not have her own designer clothes or live in a mini mansion like Hilton's dogs, she seems perfectly content cuddling in the socialite's bed.

The hotel heiress and reality star is well-known for her love of diminutive dogs, but last week Paris Hilton decided to explore her feline side.
She broke the news of her kitten adoption on Twitter July 29, tweeting, "I adopted the cutest kitten today. I named her Princess Annabelle. She is so adorable and sweet!" Hilton urged others to contact Laurel Pet Hospital in West Hollywood, California, where she adopted the adorable kitty. "There's other kittens there that are in need of homes," she tweeted.
Apparently, people listened. Dr. Meredith Rettinger, a veterinarian at Laurel Pet Hospital told Paw Nation that the practice, which also rescues animals, has since been getting "a lot of calls" from potential adopters. "Some of the people say that they would never have thought about adopting a mixed-breed cat, and that they've only had purebreds," Dr. Rettinger told Paw Nation. But seeing Hilton adopt a Himalayan-mix cat changed their minds.

"I may have spoiled them a little too much. But how can I not? Just look at those sweet lil' faces, they deserve to be treated like my lil' prince and princesses :) I love my babies," Paris tweeted.
The poolside kennel is a mini replica of her mansion filled with tiny furniture pieces, a spiral staircase, a black chandelier, a balcony, and air conditioning, for those hot summer days.
True to her heiress fashion, Paris also created a designer wardrobe and 'Chewy Vuitton' beds for her pooches.
We can only wonder when they'll get their own mini pink Bentleys.
