Hooray, it’s National Dress Up Your Pet Day! Little kids (and, ahem, some big kids too) have always loved dressing up their pets and the Cricket family of magazines has recognized and illustrated this common childhood experience numerous times over the years. Here are two beautiful and very different Ladybug covers celebrating the joy of dressing up your pet. The one above is from May 2005 and is by artist Kay Chorao. The one below appeared in the May 2008 issue and is by artist Irene Haas.
You can get into the act too. We’d love to see your pet all dressed up. Feel free to send us your photos and we’ll add them to our pet gallery. If you need some inspiration, check out this video for some cute costume ideas.
In honor of the occasion, Cricket Media employees also dressed up their pets. Check out some of the cute and funny costumes our employees came up with…
