You never know what can happen when pets and kids are left to hang out together unsupervised. Sometimes, the pets get dressed up in goofy costumes. Other times, they find themselves making the world’s biggest mess all over the kitchen.
Put the two together, leave the room, and you’re bound to have some sort of crazy disaster happen as a result of their “playing’. That’s what these 75 hilarious photos prove. At the end of the day though, we can’t really blame the kids. Sure, the pugs might end up wearing your underwear for a little bit, but really, it’s all in good fun, right?
1. Tea For Two
The woman left her niece to hang out with her dog alone for twenty minutes. She came back to this spectacle — the two of them were having a tea party together! The well-behaved pup is all dressed up for the occasion.
2. Glamorous Toes
So this is what the daughter was doing when she locked herself and the dog in the bathroom together a few days ago… The dog has beautiful blue and purple sparkly nails now.
3. Art Buddies
This kid decided to use both the dog and the wall as a canvas for his artwork. In fact, everything in the immediate vicinity is covered in the blue marker, including the kid himself. What a mess!
4. Snuggled Up
There is nothing animals love more than being curled up under a blanket. Kids instinctively know this. After all, it wasn’t too long ago that their mom and dad were bundling them up in blankets too.
5. Trampolining
These two were caught sharing a shirt together out on the trampoline. The girl wrapped the dog up with her and hugged him in close. Then they started bouncing around.
6. Blank Canvas
Here we have another kid who thought that the dog would be a great place to test out his markers. We can’t really blame the boy though. After all, the white dog was practically asking for it by lying down so nicely.
7. Rainbow Breed
It’s actually not even a unique occurrence. Tons of kids have had the bright idea to paint the family dog over the years. For example, this Dalmatian who went from a boring white and black to a lovely tie-dye.
8. Fashionable Hair
This person’s little sister got ahold of her pup for a couple of minutes. The two decided to have some fun doing each other’s hair. The dog got a complete makeover and looks pretty amazing now.
9. Spilled Milk
There is no use in crying over spilled milk. In fact, it’s a reason for celebration. Why would the little girl hog her milk all to herself when she could share it with her appreciative friends?
10. Pretty Kitty
We’re not sure how much the cat enjoys playing dress-up, but the young girl certainly does. She set her buddy up with a new lacy pink dress, just like she does for all of her baby dolls.
11. Lookin’ Good
It turns out, coloring on pets isn’t just reserved for dogs. All animals are at risk of becoming canvases, including cats. The lipstick and eyebrows on this feline give it a completely different appearance.
12. Strapped In
This guy’s daughter buckled the cat into a stroller and is taking her for a ride around the house. The cat doesn’t seem to mind. Although, it could just be because she has no way to escape currently!
13. Playing Pet Shop
This is one of the most patient dogs that we have ever seen. It allowed the toddler to cover it in one of every type of pet shop toy they had. We wouldn’t exactly call it playing together, but the toddler thinks that’s what they are doing.
14. Mystical Cat
The girl thinks it’s pretty hilarious, and we do too. The angry cat is dressed up like a unicorn. While the dad was sleeping, she created a little gold hat to put on it.
15. Looking Through The Glass
The cat’s expression says everything that needs to be said. The girl was carrying it around and decided to smash both of their faces up against the window. The cat is definitely not used to being held in that position.
16. Super Pup
Here we have a son who gave the family dog a cape. Now he works as a superhero, fighting crime all day long up and down the block. There are pesky cats everywhere out there.
17. Dog In Tights
There is nothing quite like dressing a dog up in pink tights, pink heels, and a pink wig. Really, there is nothing like it. It’s the first time we have ever seen such a thing. The kids are pretty happy about what they did though.
18. Happy Baby
The baby and the dog are best friends. They love playing with the girl’s Barbies together. Although, in this case, the pup serves as the Barbie princess’s noble steed, carrying her off to the ball on her back.
19. Canine Photoshoot
The older brother checked his camera one day and couldn’t believe what he was seeing. His 6-year-old sister had been dressing their dog up in various costumes and taking pictures of it. There is even a photo of the dog wearing glasses and reading a book.
20. Gentleman Cat
These clothes actually belong to a stuffed animal. However, the son in the household thought that they would look better on the cat. The sweater might be a little tiny for the cat, but he sure looks dapper.
21. Park Life
The kid took this outdoor-loving cat on a walk in the park. It’s one of the cat’s favorite places to play. Although, he must stay attached to his leash at all times so he doesn’t get any crazy ideas, like swinging.
22. Sparkling Claws
Here we have another beautiful pup with fabulous nails. The dog wasn’t always this stylish though. She only started getting into style after the child and her went upstairs for an hour alone together.
23. Royal Cat
When the girl discovered that the crown fit perfectly on the cat’s head, she got really excited. Now the two can both be princesses and frolic around the castle. They are part of the same royal family.
24. Bright Colors
The dog is completely oblivious to what it looks like now. All he knows is that he went to hang out with the kids and now everyone is laughing at him. Don’t worry though buddy, at least the markers are non-toxic! They’ll wash right off.
25. Architectural Marvel
“My five-year-old son is getting good at Legos. He built a cat,” explains the Redditor. The son used to construct cool buildings that stood on their own. Now the cat is used as the foundation for all of them.
26. Tug Of War
Dog toys aren’t just for dogs. Infants love them too, and at this age, the two are both on pretty much the same wavelength. The competition between them is fierce.
27. Locked Out
The dog out on the deck is pretty upset and jealous. We don’t blame him. The fake stuffed-animal dog is getting fed Goldfish crackers. Meanwhile, he is stuck outside looking through the window.
28. Making Patterns
This cat got turned into a mosaic by the toddler of the house. It’s pretty funny. The cat is completely passed out and has no idea that he was transformed into a work of art.
29. Maturity Levels
When the parent saw how the dog was dressed, it left them thinking… “Perhaps the children aren’t mature enough to have a dog?” It’s a worthwhile question to ponder.
30. Exploring The Cabinets
These two friends are always up to no good. Leave them unsupervised for a few minutes and you never know what sort of trouble they’ll get into. This time they completely destroyed the kitchen.
31. My Valentine
Here we have something completely different — a bunny rabbit covered in kisses. The girl applied a whole bunch of red lipstick and went to work showing the little animal lots of love.
32. Classy Cat
This cat got its own bowtie to wear after spending some time with the youngest in the family. Not everyone can pull off a bowtie, but we’d say that this cat looks pretty slick in it.
33. Streaky Makeup
This is what happens when you combine a 5-year-old, a cat, and a tube of lipstick. The cat ends up with a nice pink streak right down the bridge of her nose. It looks like she’ll probably be getting a bath later on now.
34. Sleep Accessories
This cat was happily taking a nap when the young girl realized that the cat needed some friends to help him sleep better. She gathered up a bunch of stuffed animals and then hung up a blanket to help block out the sunlight.
35. Sumper Comfy
This cat’s sleeping arrangements were made more comfortable as well by a caring family member. It has an umbrella for shade, a pillow to lay on, and kitchen rag to use as a blanket.
36. Fantastical Beasts
This little princess transformed her dog into a fairy. It’s a pretty goofy look for a dog that is so big and intimidating. However, the pink tutu certainly brings the dog’s intimidation level down a notch or two.
37. Serenading The Pup
This boy loves playing songs on his toy trumpet for the dog. The pup patiently sits there and listens to his tunes. Although the playing doesn’t typically attract a big audience, at least one animal finds it enjoyable.
38. Fighting Over Toys
It turns out, tug of war is a very frequent game that dogs and toddlers both like to participate in. Lots of young kids and dogs do it. Who will win in this epic match between man and animal, we wonder?
39. Cat Onesie
Here we have a mom who dressed up her cat. She is just as bad as the kids! Although we have to say, a cat wearing pajamas is pretty amazing. They are both really excited for their sleepover.
40. Holiday Spirit
It’s Christmas time in this household and the boy is decorating the dog. The confused pup is looking extremely festive and has no idea why. For him, every day is a holiday already.
41. Reading Time
The two-year-old and the dog are both enjoying a children’s book together. They both love the short stories. Although, neither of them really understand them much.
42. Pure Bliss
The three-year-old thought that the cat wasn’t warm enough and needed to be bundled up. She made sure that the cat was nice and cozy. The cat actually looks very content with the situation now.
43. Cat In A Hat
The daughter actually crafted the hat for the cat herself. We’re pretty sure that it is a pink sock attached to the cat’s head with a hair elastic. The girl certainly is creative. We’ll give her that!
44. Costume Party
This woman’s cousin’s kids helped babysit her dog while she was away on vacation. It looks like they had a lot of fun together. The dog is covered in different types of costumes.
45. Look-Alikes
The man’s little sister was babysitting the dog for the afternoon. He came back and his dog was wearing his clothes! The pup looks just like the owner now.
46. Big Softie
The man bought this dog because it looks tough. However, when he went off to basic training for the army, his niece totally changed the dog’s image. The pup is a ballet dancer now.
47. Model Looks
Here we have another dog who got a similar makeover. She was given a princess dress to wear by the daughter. The pup is now looking more stunning than ever.
48. Winter Weather
The little girl is messing around with the family cat. It wants to come inside, but she won’t let it. We should also mention that it’s -2 degrees Fahrenheit out there.
49. Sticker Fun
The child’s Thomas the Tank Engine’s book comes with a whole bunch of fun train stickers. The toddler thought that the dog would be a good place to apply them. The pup looks up at the camera completely confused.
50. Pirate Bunnies
The kids loaded the rabbits onto the pirate ship and they all set sail across the high seas. The conditions on the ship might be a little cramped, but if they find the treasure they are seeking, the hardship will be well worth it.
51. Going For A Ride
The daughter strapped the cat into her baby doll’s car seat to take her on a ride around the house. It wasn’t really designed for cats, but the patient pet puts up with the situation, at least for the time being.
52. Señor Gato
“A friend who was looking after my cat sent me this photo his daughter took,” the Redditor wrote. The cat got a little sombrero to parade around the house in. He also acquired a new love for Mariachi music.
53. Warm Paws
The cat’s paws were getting cold, so he got himself some fun socks to wear. Each one has a different pattern on it, because why not? He is a cat. Matching socks just aren’t important to his species.
54. Eyebrows Of Youth
The dog’s new eyebrows make her look very curious and innocent. Her appearance is much more youthful now. Every old pup could use a set of eyebrows drawn on with a marker like this.
55. Soap Bubbles
The little girl thought that the kitty needed to soak for a while to clean up her fluffy fur. The cat agreed. She plopped the cat into a tiny bubble bath and it remained for over five minutes before deciding it was clean.
56. Clowning Around
The girls noticed that the cat could use some makeup. After all, it makes people more beautiful, so it only makes sense that it would help a cat look its best as well. Unfortunately, it came out a little clownish.
57. Biker Pup
This dog got a cute heart tattoo when the parents weren’t looking. It might not be the best tattoo ever, but it does definitely give her some street cred. She is the baddest dog on the block now.
58. Ready For An Outing
Every dog needs a pink visor to wear. How else would they keep the sun out of their eyes when they are out golfing or playing tennis? Dog’s ears are designed differently than human’s and sunglasses would just fall off.
59. Sassy Princess
The cat can’t be bothered to pose for photos. After all, she is going to be the queen one day. The only thing that she really wants to do is sit on her thrown of pillows while the kids feed her cat treats.
60. Going Shopping
The girl loves taking the dog with her on grocery shopping trips. The dog gets shuttled from room to room in the house while the doll rides shotgun. Although, the way they race around, it could be seen as a little dangerous for all of them.
61. Toy Shelf
The mom heard her five-year-old son giggling in his room and went to check on him. The crazy toddler was caught using the cat as a shelf for all of his toys. The cat doesn’t know what to think.
62. Modeling
Here we have another cat looking extra stylish thanks to the youngest daughter in the family. She gave the cat a pretty headband to wear. It even has a cute little bow on it.
63. Oversized Dress
This dog looks like it is wearing some sort of dress that it is way too large for it, but it’s hard to tell. Whatever happened here, it’s definitely the kids’ fault. Whenever the parents leave them unsupervised, all sorts of shenanigans go down.
64. Disney Fan
This dog got plastered with stickers by a toddler. It is wearing a bunch of Disney characters all over it. The dog seems completed unfazed by them and is totally content to just chill there.
65. Not Again
When the mom spotted the cat wearing a pink shirt, she immediately knew who was responsible. It must have been her daughter looking for someone to play dress-up with her again.
66. Doggie Briefs
This pup is wearing a cute pair of underwear with a hole cut out for her tail. We’re not sure if she really understands the purpose of them, but she doesn’t seem to mind. Hopefully, she remembers to take them off before going potty though.
67. Cleaning Up
In this photo, we have a young boy just helping out the family with the chores. The dog was dirty so he thought he would clean him off a bit with a sponge. He is a very responsible little man.
68. Yellow Hat
Here we have a son who thought that the cat could really use a hat. He couldn’t find one that was tiny enough to fit so he decided to use a yellow cup. It was the perfect solution.
69. Cat Basket
The family has two young daughters. They also have a cat. It often results in some interesting situations for the accommodating cat. She does her best to play along.
70. Collecting Pokemon
In order to hatch eggs in the Pokemon game, you have to walk around a lot. This kid found a great solution — he just straps his phone to the dog and lets it loose in the backyard.
71. Cat In A Baby Carriage
Lots of kids have had the bright idea at some point to strap the cat into one of their old strollers. It makes a lot of sense. To them, the cat is their baby and they are just keeping it safe and taking it on a walk.
72. Dog Ponytail
The girl’s little sister brought her dog back to her with its ears ties up in a ponytail. Somehow, we think that’s not supposed to be how it works. The dog sure looks cute though.
73. Happy Turkey Day
This is the photo that the family took for their Thanksgiving greeting card this year. The girl put the cat’s head through a picture of a turkey and it was so adorable. The family knew they had to share it with all of their friends.
74. Piling On
She was just trying to sleep. Now she has a rug on her, some cloth napkins, and a bunch of dolls nearby to keep her company. She definitely won’t get lonely, at least.
75. I’m Sleeping
Here we have another prime example of putting toys on top of a pet. The cat is being used by the boy as a racetrack for his matchbox cars. It’s pretty hilarious, but also a little mean.
