Another category-generic domain name site from Quidsi.
Amazon.com-owned Quidsi, which has a habit of launching category stores on category specific generic domain names, has launched a pet store at Wag.com.
Over the past few days I’ve been trying to figure out what Amazon was up to as it registered dozens of domain names related to pets that included “Wag” in the name. My guess was a new Amazon-branded product line, but I didn’t think to check the whois record for Wag.com.
Among the domains registered: WagBirdShop.com, WagCatShop.com, WagPamperedPet.com, WagReptiles.com, WagCats.com, and WagPetToys.com.
The store is clearly not just for dog items even though the name conjures up an image of a dog wagging its tail.

I read on CNET that they’re planning to launch a toy store using YoYo.com (another nice domain).
