Pets at Home has launched a Halloween range for cats and dogs, featuring costumes, bedding, toys and treats with a spooky twist. The collection includes dozens of new items, with prices starting from £2 for a Pumpkin Dog Bowtie and £1 at B&M for rope toys inspired by pumpkins, zombies and vampires.
Among the standout pieces is the Coffin Pet Bed, priced at £18. Shaped like a coffin and complete with a 'Do Not Disturb' sign on its 'door', the bed is designed for pets to snuggle up in on cool autumn evenings thanks to its cosy, den-like design.
Beds and costumes for dogs and cats
For larger dogs, the Spider Pet Bed is another snug option, available in medium for £20 or large for £32, featuring a soft, round bed complete with eerie spider legs. Cats can curl up in the Pumpkin Pet Bed or the Monster Brew Cauldron Pet Bed, costing £16 and £20 respectively.
When it comes to outfits, the Little Pumpkin Dog Sweater is a top pick. The cream knitted jumper is finished with 'Little Pumpkin' embroidered in orange across the back and costs £10, with sizes ranging from extra small to large – making it suitable for everyone from tiny Yorkies and pugs to larger Staffies and Labradors.
Popular picks and high street alternatives
The sweater has proved especially popular on the Pets at Home social media pages, with one pet owner commenting: "The little pumpkin jumper has my heart". Another added: "We are obsessed." One appeared disappointed that there weren't more choices for small animals such as hamsters and guinea pigs, writing: "Nothing for small animals?"
For pooches ready to embrace Halloween fully, the Pumpkin Dog Costume turns your four-legged companion into a little pumpkin complete with a matching pumpkin hat. It costs £8 and comes in small, medium and large, while dogs who aren't quite so enthusiastic about dressing up can still participate with the £2 Pumpkin Dog Bowtie.
More spooky options and toys
Further costume options are available at supermarkets, with Sainsbury's offering a Halloween Rollneck Jumper for £6 as part of its Rosewood Spirit and Spook range. Tesco also stocks a Halloween Pumpkin Dog Jumper for £9.99. On the high street, B&M has also launched a Halloween range for pets, with prices starting from £1.
At Pets at Home, the £8 Vampire Dog Cape channels Dracula vibes with its smart black and red styling. The £10 Glow in the Dark Skeleton Dog Onesie is also a classic option that's sure to prove popular for evening walks this October.
Feline companions can get their paws on spooky new toys, including a set of six Disney Villains Maleficent Cat Toys for £9, packed with catnip, crinkles, bells, ribbons and feathers. Enthusiasts of a particular 80s franchise will also spot a pair of Warner Bros Gremlins Squeaky Dog Toys for £12, showcasing Gizmo and a mate who's clearly been fed after midnight. More film favourites transformed into Halloween treats for pets include Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees plush dog toys, at £6 each.
Further costumes in the new Halloween range include the Lil' Devil Dog Hoodie for £10, fitted with horns and a pointed tail, and the Bat Dog Costume with wings and fangs for £8. Offered in various sizes, these outfits are made to be simple to put on and remove. The complete Halloween range is available to browse on the Pets at Home website now.
