iPhone Apps to Entertain Your Pets

user

Yes, the iPhone comes with a Bark ring tone already built-in, but there are even more tricks to teach and (virtual) toys to entertain your real-life pet. For some, amuse may double as annoy, but check out these inexpensive apps to get your animals in on the iPhone action!
  • iSqueek - This virtual toy actually looks and sounds like a real squeaky when you press the screen with your finger! With 18 toys to choose from, iSqueek ($1.99) lets you attract your dog's attention, when there's no actual ball in hand.  
  • Dog Tricks & Bark Machine - Dog Tricks & Bark Machine includes step-by-step instructions and photos sourced from an actual dog training book (Maran Illustrated Dog Training) for only 99 cents. The tricks are divided into different categories or you could start Fido's schooling on random mode.  
  • Dog Tricks and Sound Machine - While similar to the previous app, this closely-named version, Dog Tricks & Sound Machine ($1.99), stands out for its breed info that clues you in for how many repetitions a particular breed will need to learn a skill as well as offering handy sounds to use during training right on each trick's page.
  • Cat Piano - Like to play piano . . . well, how about Cat Piano (99 cents)?! As you tickle the (fake) ivories, you can choose from 10 different "voices" from Furball to Fleabag with 14 kitty purrs and meows in each set.  
  • 100birds - Not just for nature-loving bird watchers, 100birds (99 cents) can entertain your pet birdies with other tweets and chirps, without adding another real pet to your household!
