I think it is the CUTEST toy. My DD would have loved it. Flea picking is better than her Barbie that cleaned a littler box. haha

That is a hoot. I am sure that the creators of the product watched a lot of the FB stories posted by the rescue sites.

This is a great toy. It teaches children to be good caregivers to their real pets and that pets actually come with problems.

If they learn some compassion and go on to rescue real life animals then I think it's great. It's not on the same level as the other toys you mentioned. |

What a way to start school. |

What a way to start school. That’s not even possible. Lice live on live human heads. They live off blood. They wouldn’t survive on a plastic mannequin. |

They live off blood. They wouldn’t survive on a plastic mannequin. They were dead but still very attached to the hair. |

Ha ha! My kid would love that too, but we have a real dog that ought to be brushed more than she actually is so I think I’ll pass on this one! They are pretty cute once you give them some love.

Totally unrelated, but everytime I see this thread title I read it in Jamie's (from Outlander) voice with his Scots accent.

That is a lot better than "Pimple Popping Pete" Game Am off to google 'Pimple Popping Pete'. I don't think this one made it across the Atlantic. I may be wrong! Edited to add that I am wrong! For those of you who are interested, it is available from Amazon for £22.94. |

I wonder if this will be the “hot” item this Christmas. You know, the one that every child wants and parents can’t find.
