spooky

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!

Anyone up for some Pixie & Brutus and other animal-related spooky comics? We're definitely in the mood and these fantastic comics by the talented Ben Hed, aka PetFoolery, hit the spot! 

If you haven't heard of Pet Foolery by now, we're sorry to say but you may be living under a rock somewhere buried deep beneath the ground. Ben Hed, the creator behind Pixie & Brutus quickly rose to Instagram stardom thanks to his wholesome comics about a military dog who has a soft spot for a sweet innocent kitten. Pixie & Brutus is one of the most wholesome comic series around and it seems like the world's sweet little Pixie is growing up! 

Don't forget to follow @PetFoolery on Instagram for more hilarious and adorable comics! 

These new comics below are all from within the past month and all very Halloweenie! Enjoy this treat on us and Happy Halloween!

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. 

gasp did you feel that? It's the ghost puppy licking the tip of your nose. Oh my god, we know, it's terrifying. 

Seriously thought, ghost puppies, we would argue, are the least terrifying ghosts out there in the ether. They, of course, don't know that they are in fact supposed to be acting like ghosts and instead act like super excited puppies. They are even extra excited because their owners are laughing and cooing over them having a sheet over their heads- I mean, ghosts, they're ghosts, it's not a costume. Don't be fooled, they are incredibly spooky and not adorable at all. Shh!

These are some absolutely gorgeous spooky pies! Some aren't so spooky as they are incredible and we just wanted to share them with you. 

The creator behind these magnificent pies is a pie-oneer herself - Jessica Leigh Clark-Boji. A woman who believes pies are awesome and is on a mission to show the world that "not only can pies go head-to-head against the poshest wedding cakes and fancy-pants desserts on the most discerning buffet tables of the world, but that they can be fun and easy to pull off too!"

@Thepieous is a pie-filled Instagram page that's filled with inspiration and incredible art. If you're feeling just as inspired as we are, you can follow Jessica's tutorials on her site, Pies Are Awesome, or following her YouTube channel! 

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! 

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!

Happy October! This month is filled with Halloween goodness and we're kicking off with this aww-dorable Halloween cardboard mansion! 

It's actually a cat scratcher but will fool everyone (including your cat) into thinking your cat is a Dark Lord of Hallows Eve!

Check out these furr-monsters enjoying their new spooky digs! 

All praise the eternal darkness floofs! They may be the embodiment of Lucifer himself or maybe they are angry cats that want our undivided attention right meow... but gosh darn it, they sure are cute. Bloody terrifying and we love it. 

Or did they? The very definition of a scaredy cat! These adorable balls of fluff with their super big eyes, usually stare off into space with this look of pure horror and you're left imagining the absolute worst. 

What. Is. It.
