With This Cage, I Thee Wed

22.5-Karat Gold Dog Crate

After that last bastard dumped you, you decided just to marry your Maltese. Then you couldn’t find a solitaire small enough to fit his toe.

Pop the question to your canine soul mate with a limited-edition gilded crate instead.

Covered in 22.5-karat gold leaf, the round cage is made of steel wire and has a removable rubber mat liner. About two feet tall and $11,000, it’s big enough for beloved barkers up to 40 pounds and pricey enough to demonstrate a serious commitment.

A painted version (black, white, or silver) rings in at a much lower $320.

So you can save your cash for the honeymoon.

Available by phone order (908-277-9600); online at gopetdesign.com and shopurbanpaws.com.

P.S. Be very afraid of the cat.
