Halloween Pet Costumes - SpoiledRottenDoggies.com

Another site with a somewhat small selection, but SpoiledRottenDoggies.com is where to buy matching 'human and pet' costume sets. Prices for single costumes range from $8.95 to $26.95. They also have a sister site, SpoiledRottenKitties.com that has a very small collection of Halloween costumes for cats.

Halloween Pet Costumes - Drugstore.com

Drugstore.com is a no-frills site with a large selection of Halloween pet costumes. Prices range from $14.99 to $24.99, with many items discounted by as much as 17%.

A few extra tips: Extra-small and small dog costumes are appropriate for use as cat costumes - check the measurements. If you find a costume you like, look for it on other sites and compare pricing, you may find it at a better price. If you're taking your pet trick or treating, make sure that they can be seen by cars - if the costume isn't reflective, you should consider attaching a strip of reflective tape, or a glow stick (if you're sure your pet won't chew it). Don't let your pets run loose while they're in a costume, they could become tangled up in something, and be trapped or choked. If you keep these pet costume safety tips in mind, you'll help keep your Halloween happy for you and your pet.
