|
A vest or belt is integrally formed with tubular, pet receiving passageways which extend around the wearer's body and terminate in pocket-like chambers for feeding and retrieval. Outer wall portions of the passageways are transparent so that a pet moving along the passageways can be seen by a spectator. Graphics or indicia depicting the pet’s habitat or a pet story are marked on the vest and extend across portions of the passageways masking delineations or depicting the passageways as burrows.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the pet display belt 21 is of somewhat similar construction to the lower or waist section of the vest as upper and lower annular, tubular, passageway portions 23 and 24 joined along their entire lengths, as indicated schematically by the broken lines in FIG. 4 and 5, and are integral with annular waist band forming strip 22, (also of heat sealable plastic), with the lower passageway portion 24 being attached to respective pocket-form animal receiving chambers 3' also attached to the waist band, and communicating with each other via a port 16'. Adjustable fastening members 26 of intermeshing multiple hook and eye type fabrics are provided on opposite ends of the waist band to secure the display belt about the waist of a wearer. When the belt is not worn it may be supported by a flat surface to provide a permanent home for the pets, as illustrated in FIG. 5.

In use, the pockets provide access of the wearer’s hand for pet recovery and, feeding areas. Fluid wastes tend to gravitate to the pocket facilitating collection and removal while the passageways and pockets can be rinsed by attachment to a faucet.
