It's Almost Halloween!

...And that means decorating and eating pumpkin pie and drinking cider and most importantly- getting costumes for our pets! Now unlike most children, we cannot take Abby and Jack and Mow Mow into a store and let them pick out what they want. So we chose for them. Of course we put a lot of time into thinking up the best outfit for each of them, something to match their personalities*. We thought "What most defines Jack? The fact that he's a little dimwitted? No... The fact that he is a big pervert and his wiener is out at the most puzzling of times? No... Oh, he bites, let's make him a shark!" So we did.
The costume is a little small, it is supposed to fit dogs between 30 and 50 pounds, Jack is about 55. With his figure though we figured he could pull it off. He can.

Then we had to decide the same about Mow Mow. Now, this cat is the best cat in the entire universe. No joke. I'm not exaggerating. AND, she is beautiful. Not in that standard "oh that's a pretty cat" kinda way. Mow Mow is a one of a kind gem. We didn't want to make her a rock for Halloween though. So we figured most appropriately that she should be a jack-o-lantern since she herself once had her eye cut out. So we got her a little shirt.


Isn't she the prettiest cat you've ever seen? Don't lie. She even has a mane. A real mane. It's around her neck, it's made of fur that is longer than her other fur. Your cat doesn't have that.

We haven't gotten Abby a costume yet. But we will, don't worry. And it will be posted for the world to see.


*In actuality we put little thought into these costumes, in fact we walked into Target and found the pumpkin shirt in the awesome cheapo bins at the front of the store and happened to stumble across the pet costumes in the back by accident. The shark costume is in fact awesome and probably the only thing there that could have fit our dogs. We do love our pets though, don't get me wrong. Just not enough to not make them dress up for our entertainment.
