Ms Antonelli says the jacket “started growing, growing, growing until it became too big. And [the artists] were back in Australia, so I had to make the decision to kill it. And you know what? I felt I could not make that decision. I’ve always been pro-choice and all of a sudden I’m here not sleeping at night about killing a coat...That thing was never alive before it was grown.”

If he let it live long enough, maybe it would of started sqeaking or mooing. It could of made for a new fashion accessory, instead of carrying small dogs in a bag, why not wear your pet.
