Whether it’s with a cosy self-knitted sweater, a pair of sassy glares or a cute little tutu, parents of all sorts of pets love playing dress-up with their babies from the moment they set their eyes upon them. Remember when you were given a new doll as a child and you couldn’t wait to dress it up with your own special little outfits? Didn’t it make you feel all warm and happy like a little mommy on having to choose what it wore and how it looked? Well, it’s exactly that – except, its loads more fun!
Changing the way your pet looks every single day might be a task. Therefore, on one special day, pet owners across the world get a chance to fashionably dress up their little ones and jazz up their looks in whichever ways they want. This occasion is known as the National Dress Up Your Pet Day. It was founded on 14th January 2009 by a leading celebrity pet lifestyle expert and animal advocate, Colleen Paige. Her sole aim was to encourage everyone to spend a little extra time with their pets and have fun by dressing them up in cute, safe and stylish costumes. In some places, people celebrate by organizing competitions between pets from different neighbourhoods to see who comes out with the coolest avatar.
