** NOTE: France, like the rest of the world, continues to struggle with the Covid-19 pandemic. Many Paris museums, shops, restaurants and tourist destinations either remain closed or have limited hours. All will require masks while indoors. Many also will require proof of vaccination. Please check online information or telephone your intended destination to determine any restrictions. Let’s all help each other through this harrowing period in global history. Merci! **

No one pampers their pets more than gay men and lesbians, and Paris’s LGBT animal lovers make a beeline to Moustaches, a large dog- and cat-specific emporium offering everything imaginable to spoil Fido or Fluffy.

Sure, the boutique carries the basics every pet owner needs, including food, bowls, grooming supplies and leashes and collars, but with more than 3,000 items available, you can be sure you’ll find plenty of fun merchandise—including hundreds of toys—that make fantastic gifts for your furry family members.

]I’m a sucker for the doggie and kitty sweaters that are every bit as fashionable as the human clothes found in Paris’s couture houses! And my yellow lab, Bailey, simply adores her oinking piggy that I bought for her at Moustaches (see short video below).
