Pampered pooch Pookah has been given a quirky new makeover - to look just like a panda. And judging by these photos Pokkah is loving his new black and white look. According to animal stylist Catherine Miles using colour and clippers to transform your pet is now a popular trend. Indeed the creative colouring has seen everything from poodles to pussy cats getting a special new look. Catherine said: "It's all about creativity. It's a little bit of a fashion statement and it's getting more common." However, she warned that the sprucing up of pets should only be done by a professional who uses specially created dyes that are safe for animals. "Don't ever use people products or try it at home."
