"We want to make sure that all pet parents can bring their pets
into the Halloween fun, and our scary good value makes that easier
to do without sacrificing quality," said James Elasky, SVP of
merchandising and chief merchant at PetSmart. "PetSmart's Thrills
& Chills collection is thoughtfully curated — whether you're
trick-or-treating with your pet, bringing them to the costume party
or just want to make sure they get their tasty treat too, PetSmart
has items you cannot find anywhere else, all at an amazing
value."
PetSmart's Thrills & Chills collection is a one-stop-shop
for pets and pet parents to get into spooky season with products,
including:
Iconic Go-To Costumes for Cats and Dogs Under
$20
Cats and dogs can be the life of the party in a
hilarious hot dog costume or go for a classic with this iconic
pumpkin costume. If you're looking for something a little spookier,
try the monster costume, spider costume or a skeleton ombre
dress.
Spooky Good Treats, Toys and Accessories Under $10
Dogs can look paw-some on their big
night out for Halloween in a stylish bones bandana, or slip into
their glow-in-the-dark spider socks (sure to make the
trick-or-treaters scream!). If cats are staying home to help hand
out candy, they can play with the pumpkin and ghost teaser
toy or run through their very own fishbone pop-up tunnel
toy during break time. After your dogs are done with the
tricks and are in the mood for a scary good treat, they can enjoy a
fa-BOO-lous cookie or rawhide alternative fingers.
Creepy Costumes and Accessories for Small Pets
Pet
parents can dress up their small pets, including guinea pigs and
bearded dragons, with a pint-sized skunk costume, or get a little
mystical on fright night with a dragon costume. For those on
another dimension, dress small pets in a one-of-a kind alien
costume that is out of this world. To bring the horror to your
small pet's habitat, add a spooky bat cave bed, a bat to the bone
fleece habitat liner or a gourd-geous woven corn husk pumpkin chew
this season.
No matter how you're celebrating Halloween this year,
Dr. Jennifer Bruns, DVM, MPVM, PetSmart Veterinary Services,
shares tips to keep pets safe as they take part in your
festivities:
- Trick, but no sweet treats:
Reminder to keep chocolate, gum, candy and baked goods from
the trick-or-treat bag away from pets! Instead, use pet-safe treats
to teach your pet basic commands to keep them away from candy.
- Make sure their costume fits just right: If your pet
looks uncomfortable in their costume, they probably are, so pay
extra attention. Watch for elastic features around the paw area and
be certain there is enough room around the widest area of the
chest. Costumes should not cover the eyes or nose and should not be
too tight. If a dog or cat can easily trip over the legs, try
another type of costume. Comfort and safety are key!
- Keep nervous pets inside to avoid triggers: Ahead
of peak trick-or-treating hours, keep your pet indoors so they
don't risk getting spooked by masked adults or children. Remember
to watch your pet around the front door as you open it to
trick-or-treaters to ensure they don't make a run for it. Whether
you're at home or outside, make sure your cat or dog has a
microchip, collar, or ID tag in case they do get lost.
