51 Pet Costume Ideas That Will Have Everyone Laughing

These pet costume ideas for your cat, dog or any other furry companion are perfect for Halloween — or even a boring weekend.

Pet Costumes to Get Festive With Your Furry Friend

If you have a fur baby, it’s likely you treat it very much like a human. That means giving your pet treats, gifts or, perhaps, even dressing it up.

While not all dogs and cats appreciate costumes the same way their owners might, others like to flaunt their new accessories as if they're channeling Heidi Klum. Whether you're interested in dog costumes, cat costumes or fun looks for your guinea pig — yes, please! — it’s certainly fun to test new looks on your furry companion.

Here are some pet costume ideas for Halloween or really any time of year that you feel could use some extra tulle — or capes.
