presenters and winners were thanked for their time and talent by being
given the opportunity to select one pet carrier from the fashionable line of pet carriers PETOTE offers.
There was a very big reaction from all celebrities who participated.
Melissa Gilbert was very excited to see a pet carrier that was practical yet fashionable.
Melissa chose the Tan Pebble Suede Kelle Pet Carrier for her dog Willy, "Very cute, I love these".
As soon as Halle Berry noticed the line of pet carriers she rushed over to get a closer look,
"Are they really pet carriers? They are so cute. I have to have one". Janet Lee,
the CEO of PETOTE says, "We are overwhelmed by the enthusiastic response to
our pet carriers that were introduced backstage at the SAG Awards".
The items selected by celebrities include:
PETOTE, a Chicago based company privately owned by Janet Lee, has launched a new line
of classic, stylish, affordable pet carriers to fit everyone's needs. PETOTE began
offering pet owners a better way to carry and care in December of 2001. Janet Lee grew up
working in her family's business of manufacturing luggage, original equipment cases for laptop
computers and construction sidings. She came up with the idea to design pet carriers for men, women,
and children ranging from affordable to high end to exclusive. She has not only traveled city
to city to sell her pet carriers, but also runs and operates her family's manufacturing business.
