Random Appropriation of the Day! ("Native American Teepee for fluffy little critters")


This "Teepee" for your pets has been making the rounds on all sorts of design blogs on the internet in the last week or so. So random. And it's cardboard, not exactly a plush hangout for your "fluffy little critter". The description reads:
This Tipi, entirely made of recycled corrugated cardboard, distinguishes itself through its innovative design inspired by a classic symbol of Canadian iconography, The Amerindian culture and the collective imagination associated with it.
Which is actually kinda interesting. Note they used the correct spelling in the description, but not in the title, and the phrase "collective imagination," which could be interpreted that they realize that the stereotype this tipi represents is not necessarily a true depiction of Native culture...but that might be giving them more credit than they deserve.

Here it is without cats:
