Death metal enthusiasts really don't have a lot of options when it comes to finding pets that help them express their inner darkness. Not surprisingly, an enterprising Pennsylvania woman decided she would fill that niche in the market.

Three kittens were recently rescued in Pennsylvania by officers from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals of Luzerne County, after being offered for sale on eBay as "gothic kittens" complete with ear, neck and tail piercings.

"This is a first," said a police officer. "It's unbelievable anybody would do this to kittens."

Authorities found the kittens a week after they were discovered online. A dog with pierced ears was also rescued from the house, and its owner will likely face a variety of animal cruelty charges.

Question Raised: If cat piercings are a no-go, is it still OK to get our dog the tattoo he wanted?
