I got error running

pets <- read.csv("http://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/pets.csv")

and the error message is

Error in file(file, "rt"): cannot open the connection

I am running R 3.2.5 on Ubuntu 14.04

However,

library(curl)
pets <- read.csv(curl("http://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/pets.csv"))

is fine

Also, you may use

require(RCurl)
pets <- read.csv(textConnection(getURL("http://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/pets.csv")))
