Bottles pet sweat? Animal lovers are taking things a bit too far.

That is Japanified English, aka Engrish.

That is pet water. The human version is Pocari Sweat and is a mineral/sports drink like Gatorade and such. The katakana directly below the word sweat on the label reads "petto suetto"
I cannot clearly make out the in kana in the little bubble after the word pet.

Yes, it is designed for pets.
41 kcal (calories to americans)
98% water. That is the only kanji I know in the ingredients list.

Can be purchased online here: http://www.kenko.com/product/item/itm_8815511072.html
350ml bottle for ¥172 is $1.72 basically.

Danny Choo (son of shoe designer Jimmy Choo) posted about it back in 2008. The video is down though. It was a TV commercial for the product.

Less gamey, I'd imagine.
