Those of us with animal companions, big and small, scaly, furry or feathery, often like to honor these special family members in different ways. Sometimes we celebrate them with things we wear or home decor. We may even like to dress our animals up occasionally (that's normal, right?)
However you pay homage your pet, here are ten unique items that every real pet lover needs to see!
1. Fashionable Dog Tag

Even cats have birthdays! Make sure to share your fur baby’s special day by purchasing them a party hat. They may look grumpy on the exterior, but they must be gleaming inside because you remembered their birthday. Or, they really are grumpy and this adorable party hat will surely earn you a few scratches or bites in return!
