Simon Cowell bought helmets for dogs

Simon Cowell is kitting his adorable dogs Squiddly and Diddly out with mini helmets to protect them from seagull attacks.

‘I am getting a crash helmet designed for my dogs.’.

Seagulls are actually attacking animals.

The Sun reports that the music mogul told the audience at London’s X Factor auditions about the issue, saying: “There is a seagull problem in this country right now”.

Simon Cowell has commissioned the craziest gift for his dogs, after becoming paranoid about their well being!

“My belief is in years to come they will unfreeze you and will will be alive again”, he explained during an appearance on The Tonight Show. According to the MailOnline, he’s looking at using a South Korean biotech firm as he can’t bear the thought of being without his two dogs.

Cowell’s mother Julie passed away at the age of 89 earlier this month and he gladly took in her little Yorkie, Freddy, to share some of the luxury with Squiddly and Diddly-he regularly updates his Twitter followers with news on the pooches’ lives.

Clearly, Simon wants to make sure that any cloning procedure is above board and safe for the dog.

As random as this all looks on first glance, we’re very much on-board with protecting pets from nasty attacks.
