It’s the week before Halloween, you have a costume party to attend, and you’re still trying to figure out what you’re going to be. You want to do a couple’s costume, but your significant other isn’t down for it, and neither is your best friend. But then, you look down at the ball of fur curled up next to you, and ideas spark. Everything will be okay, because you’ve got the best pet in the world who would do anything for you, including being the Mickey to your Minnie – Literally. Here are 22 Halloween costume ideas for you and your BFF (Best Furry Friend).
1. Daenerys and her Dragon
Our favourite heroine is not called the Mother of Dragons for no reason!
2. Dorothy and Toto
Forget being a dog, your furry friend can also make the perfect Cowardly Lion.
All you need to be this charming redhead is a blue dress, a basket, pigtails, and of course, you’ll need those ruby slippers to get you home.
3. Minnie Mouse and Mickey Mouse
A loyal pal for a fashionable gal. More than one pet? Goofy and Pluto can also join the gang.
Create a simple Minnie Mouse costume with a simple black tee and leggings, a red tutu, paper polka dots, and some signature Mickey ears (a giant red bow is a great alternative).
4. Rick and Snuffles
As long as your buddy doesn’t end up raising a dog army to take over humankind…
A simple lab coat and a blue wig should do the trick.
5. Wendy and Peter Pan
Follow your pup to Neverland (the second bone to the right, am I right?)
A blue floor-length dress, a pair of flats, and a blue ribbon to tie up your hair is all you need to look like this lovely Darling.
6. Wonder Woman and Superman
Fighting for justice, together.
Pick up a blue tutu, red knee-high socks, a red (or black) tee, and rock a golden tiara to be a part of this dynamic duo.
7. Little Red Riding Hood and Big Bad Wolf
All you need is a red cape and hood – it’s as easy as grandmother’s pie!
8. Fionna and Cake
Have exciting Halloween adventures with your furry sidekick.
Items you’ll need: blue top, blue bottoms, white knee-high socks, black shoes, a bunny hood, and a green backpack.
9. Agnes and her Unicorn
“IT’S SO FLUFFY, I’M GONNA DIE!” – your sentiments exactly when you dress up your pet as this mystical creature.
A pair of overalls, a yellow tee, and a big red scrunchie will have you looking like this adorable unicorn-loving cutie in no time.
10. Harry Potter and the Golden Snitch
Gold. Everything. Or you know, you can always relive your childhood dream of being a Hogwarts student too.
11. Trainer and Pokemon
With your favourite Pokemon by your side, you’ll for sure be able to catch ‘em all this Halloween.
12. Thing 1 & Thing 2 and the Cat in The Hat
Get your crazy on with a red ensemble and electrifying blue hair.
13. Vampire and Bat
Bella will have nothing on you when you show up to a party looking like the queen of vampires, bat-kitty in hand.
14. Young Girl and her Beanie Baby
How many times have you mistaken your pet as a stuffed animal? Yeah, same.
Put on some colourful, slightly-too-small clothing, and top it off with high pigtails for this throwback costume.
15. 2 Inbread Cats
…
No comment.
16. Princess Leia and Eewok/Chewbaca
The Force will definitely be with you now, if you’ve ever had any doubts.
17. Bo Peep and her Sheep
Your dogs are sure to wag their tails behind them as they stroll alongside their favourite shepherdess.
See if you have a pastel dress, a bonnet/large cap, and a wooden staff of sorts lying around your house.
18. The Peanuts and Snoopy
Find the Great Pumpkin together with Snoopy and Woodstock.
Blonde? Find a pink dress. Brunette? Find one in blue. Another hair colour? No worries, you have the entire squad to choose from!
19. Cheshire Cat and Alice
Or the Mad Hatter, the White Rabbit, the Queen of Hearts… the options are limitless!
20. Unicorn and Rainbow
I mean, who doesn’t want to have their own, personal rainbow?
Grab all things pastel and glitter for this beautiful costume. Oh, and a horn would be good too.
21. Cruella de Vil and Dalmatian
Pull out your best fur (fake, of course!) and anything black and white, then top it off with red accents – I’m talking gloves, heels, and lipstick! For anybody who owns a Dalmatian, this is the perfect costume (if you don’t, you can paint black dots on a white doggy vest).
22. Angel and Devil
Take your pick.
