Should Animals Have Birthday Parties?

Celebrating your pet’s birthday can be just as much fun for you as it is for them. Sure, our pets don’t know what the day is about. They don’t celebrate birthdays like we do, so it isn’t necessary to throw your pet a party. 

If your pet is a social butterfly who loves to soak up all the attention and cuddles when people come by for a visit they might actually enjoy a birthday party, even though they don’t know what it is. A pet birthday party could be a really memorable event for your pet and guest list. So why not have one just for fun? 

There are so many little things you can do to make your pet’s birthday extra special. Let your furry friend have a day of special treatment. It doesn’t have to be a big event to be special either. With the right amount of thought and care put into the event, your pet’s birthday party can be one of the sweetest things you do for them.

Having fun decor and the right guest list is only part of the fun. Here are a few more tips for making your pet’s special day one that they will love.

Best Gift For Animal Lovers

One of the best gifts for animal lovers is a pet portrait. Why not celebrate your furry friend’s birthday with a portrait dedicated solely to them. Of course this is more of a gift for you, but it still shows your love for your pet. Each pet portrait can be customized to suit your pet’s personality. These portraits are a great way to liven up any room while showing off how gorgeous your pet is. 

There are so many different options when it comes to customizing a pet portrait. You can let your imagination run wild when choosing what style of portrait you want. They’re so unique, you may end up getting one for every room.

Pick Up Your Pet’s Favorite Treats

Your pet truly has no idea what all the decorations are about. Those are for you and your guests. One thing your pet will recognize is their favorite treat. That is something they always respond happily to.

If you want to make things extra special for your pet, you could make them a cake. No, not a sweet chocolate cake full of sugar. There are recipes for cakes specifically for cats and dogs. They are typically made out of meat and other natural ingredients your pet loves. To make your pet happy, choose a recipe made from their favorite meat.

No Balloons, Just Balls

Every kid’s birthday party needs balloons, but it isn’t the same for pets. Especially when it comes to cats, they usually hate balloons. One thing both cats and dogs love is balls. Keep the balls coming and all the pets at the party will be having a blast.

If you want to make it even more exciting for them, set up a ball pit. They will go wild digging around in all the different balls. You will want to make sure you have your video camera set up so you don’t miss a stay moment.  

Stay Hydrated!

Your furry friend and all of their guests will be having such a good time so it’s important that you supply them with drinks to replenish. Set up little drinking stations around your home so it’s easy for your four legged guests to get a drink of water.  Keep an eye on them throughout the party so they don’t go dry, especially if it’s a hot day.
