We all know Mario so well and love to dress up as him, but what about dressing up our pets too? This cat is so adorable taking a selfie in a Mario hat (with the super cute “mustache”) that you can’t help but smile!!

Doesn’t this dog look like it came right out of a ‘60s movie? Chaplin would be so lucky to have such an awesome (and happy) pet!

I seriously can’t handle all the cuteness! Any Pokemon fan would just go nuts over this Pikachu cat, and for good reason - it’s amazing!

I know Minions are adorable creatures, but these costumes look like they’re trying to eat up these dogs and the dogs are like “Oh, okay you adorable fake monster, nice try.”

Bunny Bat

This bat just got busted! Using bat wings on animals that have black fur is a classic, but it works perfectly!

The Sealiest Costume

This dog seems to be a bit scared...I wonder if it’s because of the costume or the way its owner is laughing beyond reason while taking pictures of this moment!

Turkey Cat

This cat sure isn't happy to be dressed up as a turkey!

I’m guessing this cat stole someone’s turkey last Thanksgiving and now the owner is making him pay for it (and he’s probably planning his next plan of attack)!

Smurf + Puppy = Purfy?

I wonder if this smurf costume will ever come off this dog!

“Purfy” would be a great name for a dog, don’t you think? Sounds like a combination of perfect and puppy, which this adorable thing sure is! The perfect smurf puppy!

Pocahontas

This cat is surely not happy to be playing Pocahontas - his eyes are saying “I better be getting paid for this, human.” Aside from that, the more you look at this, the more you laugh!

Lizard Reindeer

I don’t know whether to laugh or go “aaaaawn, so cute!” here. I never thought I’d see a lizard wearing a reindeer costume, this is mind blowing and so awesome at the same time - even makes me want to get a lizard as a pet!
