We love Halloween. So, to help celebrate the spook-tacular holiday, we asked our readers and our Vetstreet team to share pictures of their costumed pets. The results were adorable — check out photos of a pirate, Batdog, Yoda and more in the gallery below.
If you’re feeling inspired to dress up your own dog or cat, remember that not all pets are willing to wear a costume. If your cat or dog is agreeable, be sure to choose a costume that fits properly and is the right type of outfit for your pet. Pets should only wear costumes under supervision, and if there’s the potential for any discomfort — such as costumes that cover the ears — capture your photo, then remove the costume, so your pet can celebrate in comfort, too.
