Paris Hilton has a new fashion accessory to go with her pet dog Tinkerbell. Paris was spotted exiting her car carrying a miniature grey feline.

However, with all things Paris, there’s criticism. The hotel heiress has been accused of funding ‘unscrupulous’ pet breeders by buying a dwarf cat.

Paris is being slammed for purchasing the unusual cat because the specialist breed has numerous health problems. The breed cannot jump properly as their bow legs are too short, resulting in broken limbs. The mini cat also cannot function properly like a normal sized cat.

According to Hollywood gossip writer Janet Charlton:

She’s [Paris] way off base with her mini-cat. She’s got a cat that was bred to be a tiny dwarf and like most dwarves it has short bowed legs.

Breeding animals to be dwarfs or midgets is unethical and they usually have numerous health problems because of it. They’re cute, but not healthy or able to function like a regular cat.

But as long as wealthy people like Paris buy these pets, they will be produced by unscrupulous breeders. Paris should think about adopting her cats at a shelter.

Paris sure loves her animals. But not just any old animal – The animal has to exotic. She already has a menagerie consisting of two Chihuahuas, a goat, a ferret and a kinkajou.
