Pet Halloween Costumes
Pet Halloween costumes are a playful and heartwarming way to include your furry friends in the spooky season fun. Whether your dog is dressing up as a pumpkin, your cat becomes a little lion, or your rabbit rocks a superhero cape, these costumes turn pets into full-fledged Halloween participants. Since 1988, we’ve helped families and their pets celebrate Halloween with comfort-focused, photo-ready costumes that are safe, adorable, and easy to wear.
With over 35 years of costume expertise, we know how to make your pets look paw-sitively perfect without sacrificing their comfort or safety. From viral-ready looks to matching family costume sets, our collection includes sizes and styles for dogs, cats, and other small pets, so everyone can join in the treat-worthy fun.

How to Choose the Right Pet Halloween Costume
1. Know Your Pet’s Personality
Some pets tolerate full-body costumes, while others are more comfortable with a simple hoodie or headband. Choose accordingly.
2. Measure Carefully
Use our detailed size chart and measure your pet’s neck, chest, and body length. Every costume includes sizing guidelines for an accurate fit.
3. Prioritise Comfort and Safety
Look for soft, breathable fabrics, and ensure the costume doesn’t restrict movement, sight, or breathing. Avoid costumes with choking hazards or dangling parts.
4. Easy On, Easy Off
All costumes are designed with quick velcro or elastic closures for stress-free dressing and removal.
5. Match the Moment
Whether you’re attending a Halloween parade, trick-or-treating with the kids, or just snapping photos at home, we have costumes for every type of celebration.
Materials & Pet-Safe Features
Our pet costumes are crafted from lightweight, breathable fabrics like soft fleece, cotton blends, and pet-safe polyesters. Many include:
Adjustable straps or elastic loops for a secure fit
Open-bottom designs to allow for potty breaks
Non-restrictive leg and neck holes for easy movement
Reinforced stitching for durability, even if your pet gets playful
All materials are non-toxic and selected to avoid irritation, overheating, or discomfort.
Expert Tips for Dressing Pets for Halloween
Practice Early: Let your pet try on their costume a few times before Halloween to get comfortable with it.
Keep It Short: Most pets tolerate costumes best in short bursts. Dress them right before photos or events.
Bring Treats: Use treats and praise to positively reinforce costume time.
Watch for Signs of Discomfort: If your pet looks stressed, overheated, or restricted, remove the costume right away.
Accessorise Lightly: If your pet doesn’t like clothing, try festive bandanas, collars, or themed harnesses instead.
