Popular Pet Costumes in 2007
 There will be lots of furry devils, witches and pumpkins in people's homes on October 31st. A National Retail Federation (NRF) study has found that 7.4 million households will be dressing up a pet for Halloween this year.
According to the National Retail Federation's 2007 Halloween Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey, conducted by BIGresearch, an estimated one in ten celebrants (11.0%), or 7.4 million households, plan on donning their beloved pet in some sort of costume this year.
Devils (12.0%) and pumpkins (9.2%) top the list of pet costumes, with witches (4.5%), princesses (3.8%) and angels (3.3%) rounding out the top five.
"Many consumers who own pets think of them as family members," said NRF President and CEO Tracy Mullin. "Pet owners will go all out to include dogs, cats and other critters in Halloween festivities, including trick-or-treating, handing out candy or even celebrating at a friend or family members' house."
Here is the list of the most popular pet costumes according to the study.

The "black cat" costume is interesting. Is that dogs dressing up as black cats or just black cats going as themselves? Pet costumes can be found at pet stores and many stores that sell people costumes are selling pet costumes at well. You can find a list of halloween shopping links here.

The Halloween Cat
 We just can't seem to get past the whole "dress the pets up for Halloween thing" this year, for some reason. So here's an idea from PetSmart: put a little pumpkin hat on your cat. It will keep his little head warm...until he gets tears it off in record time. But he should keep it on just long enough to get a darling photo.
