Abstract
Hand-holdable containers for various, liquid, powder and solid products can be made suitable for a 'second use' by providing such containers with an animal simulating configuration, a first opening in the animal's nose region for dispensing an original product stored in the container and a sealed second opening that can be readily unsealed when the original product stored in the container is used up so that said container can be used to store or display other items.
