Do you dress your pets?

Since, Halloween is coming up soon. I was wondering, how many of you dress up your pets for Halloween?

Last Halloween, I seen many people with their pets during Halloween. I was even able to pet a really really big snake someone had wrapped around them. My kids did to and loved it. Well, my daughter squealed. But it was alot of fun. I also seen many people that handed out candy with dressed up pets to. Some dogs, other with cats. I am sure some of the pets weren't happy about it. But it sure was alot of fun to see.

Yup,I ''m getting Presley a white jumpsuit and hang a little cardboard guitar around his neck. Hope the weather is good so we can sit outside. I think I'll put some Elvis music on - should get a good reaction from all the kids.

I don't

I don't for Halloween, but I think that my girl would enjoy it. My boy, who is almost 13, would grin and bear it most likely-- as he does when I dress him during the winter so that he doesn't freeze his little whippety self.

I don't dress my cat up. I think it's a little weird. That's just me though!

Definitely not. I would feel horrible for my kitty if she had to endure something like that.

Umm, no, I barely have time to dress up my 3 kids, never mind my cat. Not to mention, she would probably scratch my eyes out if I even tried to dress her!

My Jack Russell, Ripley, who has pics here on Gather, is so precious when she puts on her witches' hat at Halloween!

Secretly, she hates it and is humiliated by it but I love it!

When I had my dog, I was always dressing him up. I think that my inner child wanted out or something. My goat was a fireman one year as well. They were my version of having children, so they got costumes.

The worst time was when the dog got out while he was in his superman costume. You try and go after a 80 pound lab with a red cape and the whole nine yards as he flies over fences. I was so embarrassed. My dad and I both looked at each other and said, "He's your dog, you go get him." We waited for him to come home on his own.

I have cats. I don't dress them up for fear of my life. :P
lynn a. Sep 21, 2008, 12:19am UTC
I would if I had some clothes for them. I enjoy seeing the costumes pets wear.
Felix R. Sep 21, 2008, 12:32am UTC
Do I what?

We dress Trixie up for Halloween. She loves wearing clothes anyway, though. She wears a shirt (not the same one of course) all winter long, before she's bald on her belly, and her hair is thin everywhere. We live in ND so she NEEDS to wear the clothes.

She might not dress up for Halloween this year, though. We're going Trick or Treating on base, and probably will not be taking her with us, so she will just be sitting at home.

i dress my dogs up alot during the year

One year I put a little dress on my west highland--she wasn't crazy about it, to say the least. Sometimes we do have to put sweaters on her in the winter~she just has to grin and bear it though, because it's too cold to take her out without them.
I have never dressed my pets up in costumes. but I have put some cute doggie outfits on them. When we go to places like : Petsmart, the vet or other dog friendly places.

I've always wanted too but they don't make dog clothes BIG enough for my mastiffs! LOL!
Christine G. Sep 21, 2008, 9:38pm UTC
I did get a costume for Dillon. Got him a hot dog costume. If I see something that I think will fit him better I am going to get that for him.
Rachael G. Sep 22, 2008, 8:46am UTC
Nope. My dog wouldn't stand for it. But, my sister has a silly little Bichon that she dresses up liek the devil.
Pamela O. Sep 23, 2008, 9:07am UTC
I want to dress Datz up lol. I think he'd make a good gangsta LMAO. I have put clothes on him before, his daddy's sweat shirt, and it was sooo cute! Thanks for posting to Share your life here @ Gather, a post anything group for anything in your life!

Once, we dressed Blue up as a sheep for a Halloween party. She was adorable but she hated the costume.
