Justin Bieber - Until recently, Justin had a monkey for a pet, Mally, who the pop-star rejected and gave up. The monkey now resides in a Zoo in Germany, where it has been united with its own family of lesser primates. Reportedly, Bieber, 19, was on a world tour but failed to sort out vaccination and permission to import a live animal from outside the EU so Mally was sent to an animal shelter. Over six-month-old capuchin monkey recently moved into a new enclosure at the Serengeti Park in Hodenhagen, in northern Germany.
The Canadian star was very "fond" of Mally when he first adopted him, taking the monkey everywhere with him before the animal was seized - sharing a similar relationship as the late Michael Jackson did with his chimpanzee Bubbles.

Amitabh Bachchan - His pet Shanouk, who when on his hind, wass even bigger than Big B himself. Here, Shanouk was spotted expressing his desire for a close cheek to cheek waltz with his master. Sadly, Shanouk died on June 6th after a brief illness. Bachchan, 70, loved to spend time with his Piranha Dane, one of the world's tallest dog breeds. Shanouk, as Big B recently explained on his blog, means a gentle warm breeze on a cold morning and was named by the actor's son Abhishek. "'The gentle warm breeze on a cold morning'... Just stopped. Shanouk my pet Piraana Dane passed away a short while ago...," posted Bachchan on his blog.

Eva Mendes - Hugo the Belgian Malinois is popular in the country because of his star owner. But the 'Hitch" star not only keeps her own life extremely private, but also makes sure that her dogs, Hugo and George, aren't talked about in public. She even wishes that newspapers and magazine would blur out her dog's faces, so that she could keep things as private as can be.

Britney Spears - The pop star owns Hannah, a Yorkshire Terrier who has even fallen sick following her fallout with Jason Trawick that's believed was more than a coincidence! The "Womanizer" star therefore has a very special place in her heart for her pups and considers them extremely loyal (unlike the men in her life). Hannah also happens to have her own Twitter page and is very popular on the micro-blogging platform.
