Pet Party Ideas
Our pets are the best friends that we can have. They have loads of love and affection to give and the only thing they ask in return is a warm hug and a good care and support system. Shower your little (or not so little) pet with some love and allow your pet to have fun by throwing him or her a pet party and inviting all his or her friends over for a day full of jumping, playing and enjoying! Get some ideas from the following sections of this Buzzle article.
Outdoor Picnic Which pet does not love the outdoors? So gather all your fellow pet owners and plan a fun filled picnic for your pets at the local park. You can also take them for a hike in the woods or a trail and camp for a while before getting back. Make a day out of it and have all your pets ready early in the morning for a day full of outdoor activities. Depending on whether it's a party for the same kind of pets (all cats, all dogs, etc.), you can plan out different games that the pets can play. Pack up their favorite foods and don't forget to carry everything that they need for a day outdoors!
Sunshine Party It's not just us humans who appreciate a few hours soaking up the sun. This summer, let your pet have some much-needed 'sun-fun' by sending out invites to all his or her buddies' owners. Organize a party with a beach side theme in your own backyard. If you have a pool and are willing to spend a decent amount of time and money doing the post party cleaning, then nothing like it! Set up baskets with comfortable seating, keep the food bowls and a lot of drinking water at the ready. Let your pets enjoy themselves thoroughly in the sun and have a dip in the pool if they're willing to! You can give them little sunglasses and hats if you're too skeptical about their threshold to withstand the heat.
Costume Party And you thought we'd never make a mention of this idea, didn't you? Of course! Costume parties are a major hit not only with us, but also with pets. Even pets can enjoy a costume party now and again, don't you think? If you're not sure, there's only one way to find out: have one! That's right! Call all your friends who have pets, and invite them over for a costume themed party for their pets. You can either give them a theme according to which they must dress up their pets or simply leave it to their imagination. You'll be pleasantly surprised when they show up with their pets in the most adorable outfits! Make sure you have enough food to go around and also some super cool favors to give them as they leave.
Competition Party Is your dog soon going to be celebrating a birthday? How about bringing in his birthday with some pomp and entertaining grandeur? Spread the word that there's going to be a talent competition for pets on your dog's birthday! Have all your friends train their pets in some tricks and prepare them for the big day. On the party day, you can have a panel of judges (whose pets aren't participating in the competition) and have them decide on one particular winner. Train your dog to hand over the winner his or her prize. The prize can be anything from pet food to treats, attire, leashes, or even a gift voucher for a fancy pet store. Then you can cut the birthday cake for your dog and pass it around along with other pet food provisions that you've made.
Holding a pet party needs not only a lot of planning and time, but also a lot of small details that need to be taken into account. You can implement one or all of the above pet party ideas or come up with your own, eventually making sure that your pet has a blast at the party. Each pet that visits you is different and should be made to feel as comfortable as he or she would have been in his or her own home. So take care of the comfort, along with the safety provisions when you organize a pet party. Have fun!
