Model Katie Price has faced criticism and been labeled the “grim reaper” due to concerns about the well-being of another animal under her care. Despite previous calls for a ban on her owning animals following a series of deaths, the 47-year-old model recently acquired a dog that she claims is constantly by her side.
In response to this news, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has introduced a Halloween costume kit mocking Price. Priced at £54.99, the kit includes a mask featuring Price’s face, a vest with “Grim Reaper” emblazoned on it, a “coffin” filled with dogs and cats, and a scythe.
PETA had previously offered Price £5,000 to cease owning pets, highlighting the unfortunate fate that many animals have met while under her care. Mimi Bekhechi, PETA Vice President for UK and Europe, expressed concern over the situation, emphasizing the seriousness of being responsible for animals’ lives and needs.
The Mirror has extensively covered Price’s controversies involving animals, including being dubbed a “serial killer” by PETA due to the deaths of multiple animals. Incidents such as one of her expensive cats suffering sunburn and the tragic deaths of several dogs and a horse have also been reported.
Despite facing backlash and accusations, Price defended herself by stating that circumstances beyond her control led to these incidents. She expressed her love for animals and insisted that she takes their care seriously.
The Halloween costume created by PETA is available for purchase on their website, with all proceeds contributing to the organization’s efforts to promote responsible animal care.
