This year's Halloween may have been little bit different than last years, but that doesn't mean we didn't have an insane amount of fun! You guys are proof of that! When we asked you to send us picture of your pets in their Halloween costumes, our incredible Facebook users really showed up, sending hundreds of pictures! 

We've picked some of our absolute faves and put them in this little collection :D The rest of the amazing costumes that we might have missed, you can always see on our Facebook page challenge. Though not everyone is in this list, we want to thank everyone who participated and sent pictures of their adorable pets. We have looked at every single picture that we got, and oh my goodness, we could not stop smiling! We hope you had amazing Halloween with your pets this year, and that next year we'll be able to freely walk around with our puppies and kitties, collecting all the candy we want!

"Yerr a wizard, Harry!" If there's something we can't get enough of its animals wearing hats. Big hats, tiny hats, all hats are made beautiful when placed upon an animal's head. 

And in honor of Halloween being right around the corner, it's important we share animals wearing none other than wizard hats! Animals are bewitching creatures all by themselves, it's simply nice to see that emphasized with the proper magical attire. 

If you're looking for last-minute costume ideas for your beloved pets, why not a wizard hat?

Halloween, cat snaps, and National Cat Day? That's just the purrfect storm for some grade-A spooky cat snaps! 

Each week, we enjoy bringing you the freshest cat snaps from the catnip garden, this week we decided to take those fresh snaps and give them the spooky treatment! All the spookiest (cutest and funniest) cat snaps we came across this year that gives off a Halloweenie-vibe! Again, it seems like we're all about the treats this year and no tricks. 

We hope you have a major sweet tooth for these delightful sugary treats! 

Is there anything more ominous and spooky than a cat and a graveyard? We're not sure. All we know is that when we look at these pictures, we feel like the cats in them... know something. And seeing one in a graveyard ourselves definitely gives us the feeling of them possibly wanting to tell you something. 

Maybe they're able to sense the souls of the people there. Maybe they're coming to visit an old friend of theirs that they met in one of their previous nine lives. And maybe those moments when cats suddenly start staring at the wall, confusing us, are truly moments when they see ghosts. There's no way to know, but we wish we did know what's going on through these cats minds. 

This is a special super spooky treat for Halloween, and yeah, we got the heebie-jeebies from this true spookiness as well. So, if you need to balance out the spooks, here's some wholesome cats doing wholesome cat things. 

When it comes to Halloween, if you wanna stand out, you have to truly get creative. And what's more creative than going out during Halloween with your dog... who has three heads. Don't worry! These are not real heads, they're not real Cerberuses! Shh, it's just a costume, but maybe from far enough and when it's dark enough, it doesn't look that way.

We know that we would for sure give these puppers first place in any costume competition. And it's not because they have the best puppy eyes or because we're biased since we love dogs so much. We swear! It's because these doggos are the best doggos for being such good sports and enjoying Halloween with their owners. 

One Friday closer to Halloween and the spooky vibes are in the air! Black cat magic is our weekly segment for the entire month of October, it's where we dedicate a moment to the glory and beauty that is black cats. If you missed out on our previous black cat magics specials, you should definitely take a moment to devour them! 

Black cats are known to be least likely to be adopted, due to their history of being "bad luck," well, all those who have little panthers can attest to that! Black cats, like all cats, bring nothing but joy to our lives and we're more than thankful for those little voids! If you have a void of your own, share a photo with us -- we'd love to see them! 

Have you ever heard of the Vampire Cat? It's an elusive, terrifying creature of fluff that comes out only during the month of Halloween. It's the spookiest vampire of all. It jumps and flies, it bites and hisses, and while it is terrifying, it is also a cat. 

Vampire cats may be scary, but they are still as cuddly and wholesome as any other cat. One must not hesitate when they meet a cat with adorable toofs that peek out like fangs. Adopt them, love them, pet them. Even vampires need love. At least the ones of the cat variety. Especially now, during the month of Halloween, go give the vampire cats and black cats and all other underappreciated animals the love that they deserve to get. 

Rise fluffy and adorable animals of darkness -- it is your month! Welcome back to our Spooktober special where we celebrate the entire month of by featuring Halloweenie-inspired animals! That means black cats, animals of darkness, adorable bats, and costumes galore! Spooktober is one of our all-time favorite months because of all these beautiful animals that finally get even more of a spotlight shined on them. 

These animals of darkness have a few things in common, one, they're obviously all dark, and second, they're obviously all cute and fluffy, and we don't need a third. 

Get ready to celebrate this spooky month with our not-so-spooky animals of darkness: 

Welcome back to another installment of Black Cat Magic! Once a week, throughout the month of October, we will dedicate a list to the magic that is black cats. 

There is so much negative stigma towards these house panthers. People still believe that if a black cat crosses your path, it symbolizes bad luck. Black cats are known to not be adopted as often as other cats. And worse of all, there is a belief that black cats are in danger around Halloween time. Due to these superstitious, it may be wise to make sure your house panther(s) are kept indoors. Animal shelters also tend to hold the adoption of black cats until after Halloween. 

Now, back to admiring and celebrating these beautiful creatures! Not only are black cats gorgeous, they are also one of the goofiest cats around! If you have a black cat, you already know. If you don't own a house panther and need some proof, just check out some of the silly videos below! Oh, and, you'll definitely want to have the sound on for the following videos! 

Another Spooktober special! OK, we know what you're thinking, "Spiders? Heck no." And we get that, and we're also like that. However, when it comes to peacock spiders, there's something enchanting about them. Yes, if we were ever in the presence of one, we'd probably run. 

These are just photos and vids, they can't hurt us. Remember that. 

The peacock spider is probably the most beautiful spider out there, with its vivid colors, and disproportional huge eyes, you can't help but think, "OK, these guys can be cool." Much like peacocks, male peacock spiders are the most colorful of the sexes and have displayed their colors bolding when trying to attract a mate. 

As much as they make us squeamish, bugs can be quite cool looking!  

When it comes to Halloween, we absolutely love to feature the Halloweeniest cat there is - the black cat! And to break the superstition that black cats are unlucky. Because, frankly, how can something so sweet and adorable be unlucky? Statistically, black cats are the least likely to be adopted and we need to fix that. 

Black cats are magic. For those of you who own a mini-house panther, you already know. We're here to spread that magic! Each week, during October, we will be featuring a segment solely on black cats! Be sure not to blink, or you might miss it! 

It's the beginning of Spooktober and what's spookier than creatures of the deep sea? So much is unknown and the information we do know can be just as scary as the unknown! 

Sharks. If someone tells you, while in shark-infested waters, that they aren't afraid of sharks... they're definitely lying to you. Sharks are terrifying! Yes, they're also amazing and very important to the balance of the ecosystem but that doesn't change the fact that they are essentially dinosaurs. They've got this haunting movement and look, those black eyes... and all those teeth! 

As part of our Spooktober special, we bring to you 25 shark facts that are pretty unnerving. Enjoy! 

BOO! We're in the early days of Halloween and Spooktober is in full swing! Today we celebrate and honor the spooky month by appreciating adorable bats! Or as the internet likes to call them -- sky puppies! And for those who never understand why they're called sky puppies, after seeing these big-eyed bats, you'll understand everything. Also, bat children just so happened to be called 'pups.'

A majority of the fellowing bats are rescued bats at the Bats Queensland, which is a volunteer organization for flying foxes and microbats in South East QLD Australia. You can follow them on Instagram to see the stories behind each adorable furry face.

Open your spooky heart and read more about these incredible animals of darkness. 

It's the best time of the year! We are major fans of Halloween and all the Halloweenie things that come with it! And with that being said, we don't really mind coming across anatomically incorrect skeletons but it does seem to bother others. Which just makes it fun for us. 

Let the Spooktober festivities commence! First up, a series of tweets from @timidwerewolf, followed by a series of anatomically incorrect animal skeletons! Let's get 'fake' spooky!

Spooktober continues! Our favorite month is here and in full-force! Here are some of our favorite doggo costumes we've come across, from wholesome and adorable, to slightly terrifying and hilarious! 

We. Love. Them. All.
