Our furry friends are a big part of the family so, celebrating birthdays for dogs and cats is now very popular! The way you show love for your pet varies from person to person, so here are a few ideas on how to celebrate your pet’s birthday in style.
Birthday party for dogs
Birthdays for dogs are always a happy occasion and a party works really well. This idea works best for dogs but you could have a family party for your cat’s birthday! Get some party hats, dog treats and presents and start planning! Invite a few of your friend’s dogs over to join the fun, and choose some doggie games to play to keep them occupied. You could set up an agility competition or play games like Hide Howl and Seek!
Fix up some goodie bags full of toys and treats for each owner and dog to take home. No party is complete without party bags for the guests!
Baking a special treat
Normal cakes aren’t good for cats and dogs, but there are plenty of pet-friendly recipes online – anything from carrot cake for dogs to tuna cake for cats! Pick out a recipe and make your pet the perfect birthday treat. You can find some lovely dog treat recipes in our Yummy Dog Biscuit and Treat Recipes blog. Be sure to check if any of the dogs attending the party have any specific dietary requirements or allergies.
Presents
This is the easiest way to celebrate birthdays for dogs and cats! Buy your cat some catnip, treats, a new toy, or treat them to their favourite brand of cat food. To celebrate your dog’s birthday, you can take them to your local pet store and let them pick out their own gift! You could also look at celebrating birthdays for dogs and cats with personalised gifts like personalised toy bags/boxes, a blanket with their name embroidered on or new food bowls.
Pamper your pet
Your pet deserves to be spoiled on their special day! Give them lots of love and cuddles and be sure to play with them lots. It can also be a nice idea to buy a new brush to groom your cat with and to take your dog on an extra-long walk. Birthdays for dogs and cats are a very special time and it is lovely to spend time bonding with your furbaby on their special day, showing them just how much you love them.
Personalised Paw Print Jewellery
Another way to celebrate birthdays for dogs and cats is with some personalised paw print jewellery! Use our inkless paw print kit to capture your furbaby’s unique paw print and make extra special birthday memories. Once you have paw prints, upload a photo of them to our website and they will be checked and any extra furry bits tidied up so you have clearer paw prints to keep and treasure.
You can then pick out one of our stunning jewellery designs and have your pet’s unique paw print captured in silver so you can keep your furbaby with you forever. Your jewellery can also be hand inscribed with your pet’s name for that extra added touch! Some jewellery designs also have room for a date or special message as well.
At Cheeky Little Prints, we hand craft personalised gifts and keepsakes using your pet’s unique paw print so you can keep your furbaby with you forever! Click here to browse our range of products, or contact us with any questions you have – we’ll be happy to help!
