iceorb- the vertical smell proof ice tray

This is an extremely "cool" gadget.

Iceorb, a tray that makes, chills, serves, and stores ice.

Here’s how it works: Put water in the rubber container with bumpy edges. Then slip the plastic cylinder inside, pushing the liquid into the cubes. Put on the lid, making the contraption air tight (and odor free). Once the water is frozen, remove the top and cylinder and pour the cubes into the cylinder, which doubles as an ice bucket. Repeat to make more ice.

That’s not all, people. Take the lid off and — voila — its an ice bucket.

The first vertical ice tray that makes, chills, serves and stores.

Some stuff you should know:

  • Makes 21 cubes of ice on a vertical wall
  • Stores up to 51 cubes - airtight and odor free
  • Chills wine and other beverages in a bottle
  • Use as a cooler to keep cold foods fresh while serving
  • Use lid under orb while serving to catch condensation
  • Spill-proof design
  • Dishwasher safe - top rack only
  • 6" diameter x 5" tall

Easy Care Pets

Fake It till You Make It
cuddle buddy!

Are you lonely? Is there a dearth of cuddling in your life? Do your friends’ pets run and hide when you walk through the door?

If so, you may be suffering from LOPD (Lack of Pet Disorder). It’s nothing to be embarrassed about: Research shows that millions of hardworking Americans who don’t have time for furry companions suffer from it every day.

Luckily, LOPD is treatable without a prescription. Five out of five doctors choose Zzz Animals.

The lifelike critters are handcrafted with baby-soft synthetic fur (nuzzling recommended) and come with a collar, bed, carrier, and adoption certificate. Get your daily dose of golden retriever, chocolate lab, shih tzu, pug, or tabby cat, and watch as their tummies rise and fall with every sleeping breath.

Side effects may include an inability to drag yourself out of the house, a lack of interest in sex, and talking to inanimate objects as though they are real.

A small price to pay for relief.

These babies should have no trouble finding families to adopt them.

Have you ever wished you could walk into a pet store and walk home with a pet that you can love and pet unconditionally? Especially if that pet came without the expense of buying food and vet visits, or the chore of walking and feeding them daily. Now you can have that ideal pet with these sweet sleeping Zzz Animals!


These charming little baby animals are so amazingly lifelike you may forget they are not real as they lie sleeping on your hearth, or next to your chair. Their little midsections rise and fall as they "breathe".

These babies offer real pet ownership without the work, or the expense, that comes with owning a live puppy or kitten. You don't have to worry about remembering to feed them, walk them, take them to the doctors' office or put flea repellent on them. Nor do they require cleaning-up-after, shots, litter boxes or responsibility. There are also no behavioral issues because they are exceptionally well behaved - no whining, shedding, messing! What's more, this lovable pet makes a great companion anywhere you wish to take it - any home, office, dorm or nursing home. You have the option of choosing from a Golden Retriever Puppy, Chocolate Lab Puppy, Tan/Black Pug Puppy, or White/Brown Shih-Tzu Puppy. There is also an orange tabby kitten you can bring into your home.

This "pet" is hand crafted with synthetic fur that is super soft, and its breathing is powered by two D batteries (one set included). It also comes with its own adoption certificate - to make the pet officially yours, a collar, bed and pet carrier.



Product Specifications
  • Life like Puppies and Kittens that actually look as if they breathe
  • Hand covered synthetic fur pet comes with adoption certificate, collar set, bed and pet carrier
  • Breathes continuously for up to three months on the same set of 2 D batteries (one included)
  • Requires no feeding, walking or doctor visits and no behavioral issues
  • Choose from golden retriever, chocolate lab, tan black pug or white brown shih tsu puppy or orange tabby kitten


















Each $39,95
Looks like an easy job of not bothering about feeding, walking, cleaning & shedding
