It's October. The leaves are turning brown and falling from the trees, the nights are getting longer, and the days are getting shorter; which means that Halloween is on the way.
But with so many people around the world stuck indoors for much longer than usual, thanks to the restrictions imposed on us due to COVID, it's unlikely that as many people will be out partying all night long, or knocking on their neighbor's doors while trick or treating.
Indeed, you may have to restrict your Halloween guests to the people who already occupy your home. If that's the case, then perhaps you want to get your pets in on the fun, by dressing them up in some cool costumes.
So if you're a Guinea pig owner and you're usually frustrated by the lack of options available for your furry friends, then I have good news for you. That's because this year Petsmart is offering a range of adorable, teeny-tiny costumes made just for them.
As you can see in the images above and below, there's a variety of hilariously cute outfits to choose from.
These include (deep breath) two types of mermaids, a unicorn costume, a bumblebee costume, a lobster costume, a pumpkin costume, a hot dog costume, a dragon costume, and even a tiny mariachi band costume, complete with poncho and sombrero.
The adorable so-called "Thrills & Chills" costumes are available exclusively at PetSmart, and you can pick them up instore, or online.
The costumes come at a very reasonable rate of just $6.99 each, so you won't break the bank if you have multiple pets. Or if you just want your Guinea pig to have a bigger wardrobe.
The reviews for the products from buyers have been very positive as well.
For example, a reviewer going by the handle "muffetjane", who hails from Rochester in New York, commented in glowing terms in a review made on the mermaid costume.
They wrote: "This was actually a gift from my mother for my children's guinea pig. They were excited and the pig was less excited, but we got some really cute pictures and memories. Worth the price for all the giggles and fun. [sic]"
So if you're interested in making this year's Halloween something special for your little pet, then why not shoot over to Petsmart now, and buy while stocks still last?
