5 Halloween Costumes To Go As With Your Pet


5 Halloween Costumes To Go As With Your Pet


Get Your Pets in on the Fun

Not to get spooky, but Halloween is right around the corner. That means pumpkins on the porch, wreaths on the door, and adorable costumes for you and your friends—that’s right, animal friends! There’s no reason your furry companion can’t join in on the fun, so let’s dive into a few of the best costumes to try this year.

1. Ghosts

At the end of the day, nothing’s better than your classic ghost costume. If your pet doesn’t do well with traditional costumes, you can easily drape a sheet over their curious heads and let them peek at the world through the eyeholes. Just make sure you cut the sheet to an appropriate length so they don’t trip!

2. Bees

As far as pet costumes go, bees are far less cumbersome than most DIY projects. A simple set of wings gets the job done, but if your pet can strike a well-trained pose, antennae complete the ensemble with ease! Together, you’ll look like two bees in a hive.

3. Superheroes

Our animals are superheroes in our own lives, so why not translate that to their Halloween getup? The great thing about this option is its versatility; pets who don’t mind dressing up can go for the whole shebang, while skittish furbabies can rely on a cape.

4. Hot Dog and Bun

You two go together like a hot dog and bun—and you know what that means! Sure, it’s a little goofy, but Halloween is nothing without fun creativity. Hot dog costumes aren’t very bulky, either, leaving your best friend plenty of room to move around.

5. Slumber Party

What’s better than a Halloween slumber party? All you need is a matching set of PJs and a few sleep masks to complete this look! To make matters even better? You’re ready for bed at a moment’s notice.
