When it comes to dressing animals up in funny costumes, I’m a total hypocrite. I love looking at hilarious pictures of dogs and cats that have been dressed up for special occasions by their owners, but I absolutely will not dress my beloved pit bull Lilah in funny costumes. No way. But it’s mainly because she is immortal and I want her to tell other dogs long after I’m gone how cool I was. Makes perfect sense, right?
There’s clearly no better time for dressing animals in hilarious costumes than Halloween, so it should come to no surprise to you that us animal-loving maniacs at UPROXX have put together a gallery of the most ridiculously adorable dog and cat – and even lizard – costumes you could ever imagine. There are some classics in here, as well as some new treats, but feel free to tell me in the comments about any costumes that I have egregiously omitted.
In the meantime, I should warn you – if you have a heart condition or a family history of melting because of overdoses of adorable, then you should brace yourself — this whole thing may contain more intolerable cuteness that the kiddie costume gallery we posted the other day. Consider this the complete opposite of those Sarah McLachlan commercials.
