Celebrity Pet Blogs

On FetchDog.com, actress Glenn Close hosts a blog called Lively Licks. Not surprisingly, it's fueled by star power: Among her topics are stories of celebrity dog lovers, including the likes of Debra Messing, Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen. Close also writes about visits to New York Animal Care and Control Center's Manhattan shelter and also includes plugs for animal charities, including Puppies Behind Bars.

On his Web site SteveMartin.com, the dog-loving actor-author-art collector provides links to his favorite blogs, one of which includes the hilarious StuffOnMyCat.com, which features amusing photographs of kitties in costume. (Also check out its companion site, StuffOnMyMutt.com.)

Another fine feline blog, Hodge Shall Not Be Shot, takes its literary name from a statement uttered by one of history's notable cat lovers, Samuel Johnson.
