Halloween Cat and Dog Pet Costumes Shopping
Halloween is a lot of fun if you have kids who trick or treat in costume but what if you are like me and you don’t yet?
What if your “kid” is your dog or cat? Can you dress them up in Cat Costumes or Dog Costumes for trick or treating too?
Well as of last year yes, cat and dog pet costumes are the biggest thing for Halloween now. Candy and Kids treats are fun, but why not dress up your pug as princess Liehola or Yoda from Star Wars?
They have so many cute costumes for cats and dogs now it is unbelievable. I think there are many great costumes available online but you can also find them at local Halloween costume stores too. I found cute “king” and “Spider” cat and dog costumes at Old Navylast year. They also had bandannas and pumpkin 
costumes for variety. They cost about $15.00 each last year.
A place to look for hand made pet cat or dog costumes online is Etsy.com. Many crafters make these cute adorable costumes by hand sewing them as they are ordered online. Some costumes are as simple as a pumpkin sweater and others are as elaborate as a fairy costume complete with wings and antenna.
Spirit Halloween storesand the web site also has the star wars dog costumes and many more. They have pirate dog, super dog, Dorothy from the Wizzard of oz and many more adorable dog and cat costumes. You can find the entire list of available costumes for your pet at spirithalloween.com/petcostumes. They are also about $15.00 each online.
Costume Crazealso has some cute pet costumes for Halloween online. Theirs are a little more money, mostly in the $15-$25.00 range, but they are super-cute. Who wouldn’t want to dress their cat up as the cat in the hat?
I do have to give a word of caution on dressing up your cat. I know dogs are always laid back and let you put all kinds of silly clothes on them, but cats generally don’t like it at all. Sure, there are cute pictures of cats in bunny costumes on LOL cat, but that cat is one in a million. If you want to dress up your cat for Halloween be careful and please don’t force the cat to do anything they don’t want to do. If they hiss, game over, let them go. I am not advocating animal abuse in the name of Halloween. That said, if you have a laid back cat that does not care and is cool with wearing a cape or costume, send in the picture or link to it in my comments. I would love to see it!
