Pet Starz shirts are just one of the many quirky (and clever) products on display at the 2013 Global Pet Expo in Orlando, Fla.

By Vetstreet.com staff
Of all the things we love about attending the?Global Pet Expo, the industry's biggest annual trade show, our favorite is coming across products that amuse us by being unusual or surprisingly clever. Some are truly creative solutions to problems we all face, while others fill a need we didn't even know we had. Regardless, each item below is sure to make you smile.

Platinum Pets Pet Starz shirts
These shirts might be ultra soft, but they rock ultra hard in both canine and human sizes, featuring seven funny and cute ?Pet Starz? characters: King of Pup, I Pitty the Pup, Wrath of the Pup, I Kissed a Gurl Kitty, Born This Way Kitty, Doggy Style Pup and Teen Hearthrob Pup. Count us in. (Pet Starz shirts are available in S, M, L and XL online, $9.99 for?dogs?and $19.99 for?humans.)

Cruising Critter Raceway
The new Cruising Critter Raceway from Marshall Pet put a smile on our faces, so we can see why it?s designed for both stores to use for demonstrations and for family fun at home. We got to see it in action with two ferrets in a fierce race to the finish during the show, and while the race took only moments, that was long enough to draw a small crowd. (Cruising Critter Raceway will be available within the next two months at retailers, $29-$32.)

Stud Stopper
When Tina Moody's female dog went into heat for the first time, it caused "chaos" in her home of six dogs. So she asked her husband, a carpenter, to create a solution. His invention became the Stud Stopper, a male birth control tool made from vinyl with a stretch band that wraps around the waist. The product comes in five sizes, fitting dogs from 5 to 150 pounds. (Stud Stopper, $65-$75.)
