America's Breakthrough Climate-Controlled Pet Carrier Manufacturer Komfort Pets Presents Carrier II

February 14, 2008 – (Boston, MA) — Pets provide companionship, unconditional love, and joy for millions of people worldwide. Unfortunately, too many of these treasured friends are in danger due to unhealthy conditions. On hot or cold days, an animal’s body temperature can rise or drop rapidly. It’s not only uncomfortable; it can potentially reach unhealthy levels.

Now there is a solution that will provide the ultimate in comfort for all pets. The Komfort Pets Carrier II (US and Foreign Patents Pending) is the revolutionary pet carrier designed to automatically keep pets cool when it’s too hot and keep them warm when it’s too cold. Comfort for your pet is priceless, yet affordable. In the heat or cold, your pet will enjoy the ultimate in comfort.

The Komfort Pets Carrier II features new and improved state-of-the-art technology with many newly added features. We have ingeniously designed a combination conduction/convection system into the most stunning and distinctive pet carrier in the marketplace today. Please visit our website (www.komfortpets.com) to view the next generation of technology and design by the leaders in pet technology, Komfort Pets.

We are pleased to announce that Komfort Pets has been awarded the prestigious SPCA 2008 Best of the Best Blue Ribbon Seal of Approval award in the pet carrier category. This most prestigious award confirms that the Komfort Pets Carrier II is truly the best pet carrier available for purchase today.

We at Komfort Pets have succeeded at pioneering and perfecting a revolutionary product that provides the ultimate in comfort for all pets.

CEO Robert Inello states:

"We are the first to implement this cutting-edge, patent-pending combination convection/conduction technology to offer both heating and cooling capabilities for your pet’s comfort, and we have also incorporated it into the most stunning and distinctive pet carrier in the marketplace today. The introduction of this revolutionary product can be likened to the introduction of the first color TV, fax machine, or cell phone. Just as color televisions have replaced black and white models as the norm for consumers, we believe that the Komfort Pets Carrier II will replace the standard carrier for today’s pet owner. We have had valuable feedback from buyers, veterinarians, and pet owners around the world that has been incorporated into the design of our carriers.

I ask one very simple question: Would you consider purchasing a vehicle or home in 2008 without heating or air conditioning? Ninety-nine percent of all that I ask answer this question with a resounding 'absolutely not.' I then ask: Why would anyone ever consider purchasing a pet carrier in 2008 without heating and cooling capability now that it exists?"

Our company is built on the belief that our actions should help make a difference in the lives of others. This belief has been fully agreed upon and enacted in our business model and culture at Komfort Pets. In addition to providing products that enhance quality of life, it is our policy to gladly give 10% of our earnings to charities worldwide.
