China's pet ownership is booming due to growth and liberalization; pet ownership had been deemed "too bourgeouis" for the common man, but now bourgeouis is good in China.

And did you know that July is "Adopt a Rescued Rabbit Month"? As profiled in yesterday's Times real estate section, Amy Sedaris has a pet bunny named Duffy, who has a special cage in the apartment. And, fellow Amy fans, apparently she's going to be waitressing at Mary's Fish Camp this summer.
