Cats, dogs, or any other pets are a source of joy for all of us. But sometimes our faithful animal friends can be really scary. Check out these 50 spooky, creepy, and downright funny pets to see what we mean.
1. Rows and rows and rows of teeth
Does this dog have a wicked dental plan? Not at all! As it turns out he just got a pine cone stuck in his mouth. But that didn’t stop some of the comments from asking if this dog was related to Cujo.
2. It costs an arm and a…
Don’t feel bad if this twitter post made your heart jump a little. But that’s what happens when you have objects that look suspiciously like your cat lying around. But don’t worry about this feline, it’s got all of it’s paws in the right place.
3. Dial J for Jam
You aren’t looking at the scene of a horrific accident. You’re just looking at a pup that ended up rolling around in some Dragon Fruit juice. The poor pooch must have knocked it off a table and ecided to play in the mess. He certainly looks happy with how he scared his owners.

4. A spicy little nightmare
Any pet owner that walked in on this scene would likely have a panic attack on the spot. But don’t worry because this kitty hasn’t been hurt. It just got into a whole pack of paprika and was playing around in it. Maybe it was trying to practice for a role in CATatouille.
5. A magician’s trick gone wrong
We heard about splitting time evenly, but this is ridiculous. This dog looks like it was split in half, but that’s just how the log happened to be posing when this dog decided to sit down and relax. We can’t blame the owners for freaking out because this is a few special effects away from the next Pet Cemetery movie.
6. Is that dog drunk or just foaming?
Picture this. You come home from a long day of work ready to hug and play with your playful pup. But then you see your dog laying down looking like it’s drunk and foaming at the mouth. Wouldn’t you panic? Well don’t worry, it was just chewing on something fluffy.
7. Not quite all skin and bones
If you don’t look too hard, we wouldn’t blame you for thinking this was a man-eating dog. With the bone sticking out of the shoe, you might wonder if the local mailman is alright. This is one photo that’ll make you say “Pull my other leg, why don’t ya”.
8. The case of the missing tail
If you saw this photo, you might have howled. Doesn’t it look like the dog lost their tail? Well thankfully that little white lump on the side is a cat toy in the perfect spot for a funny picture. Still, how well-timed was this?
9. Holy Pet
This cat doesn’t seem to mind what looks like a hole in it’s side. But then you look harder and realize it’s just a well-timed shot of a cat with a strange set of markings. Gotta admit though, this would make you run to the other side of the pet just to check and make sure.
10. Give my creature, life!
Just imagine being a guest and seeing this pet curled up on its back seemingly not moving. Wouldn’t you think you had a problem? Well thankfully, this is just a pet with a strange habit. This pet rodent doesn’t seem to understand why its owner hates the way it sleeps.
11. Ceiling cat meme comes to life
This picture of a cat’s face would make anyone walk right out of a room. As one redditor pointed out, back in the day, ceiling cats were considered funny, but this one is just downright creepy. You have to wonder how the cat got up there in the first place.
12. The incredible five-legged doggo
Something seems off with this picture. Then you realize that it looks like this shaggy dog has an extra leg and paw. That is until you notice the poor stuffed bear to the side who seems to be missing a limb. Now it all makes sense.
13. Welcome home, for the last time
If you saw this dog greeting you in your bed, you might end up walking away. But this dog isn’t covered in blood, it’s just gotten into its owner’s lipstick. Whew, looks like this cute doggo isn’t out for murder after all. Or is it?!
14. Are you a fan of the Bengals?
Just another day driving around when you notice a large striped tiger in the parking lot. You might call in sick until you notice that the stripes are just shadows from a nearby rail. Good thing to, because Bengal Tigers can be dangerous.
15. Caught on Camera
This dog’s owner had a rude awakening when a motion detector warning got them out of bed. When they checked out the footage they were met with the face of their dog staring eerily into the camera. Watch out!
16. Pet grooming by Mortal Kombat
Now don’t worry, the groomer isn’t elbow deep in this poor dog. As it turns out, the groomer is missing part of an arm. So what you see is literally all that’s there. Doesn’t stop this from being unintentionally scary.
17. You should have seen the other dog
This dog looks like he got into a fight with another pet. WIth that much red it’s easy to fear what happened to the other dog this pet owner had. But then they noticed a seed and realized that this dog had just been playing in the tomatos. Everyone can relax there’s no emergency here!
18. Don’t get it twisted, please
This pet looks like it’s broken. But the original poster said this is just the way that their cat sleeps and they had to share it with the world. It doesn’t stop it from being creepy, even if we did find the world’s first animal contortionist.
19. There in the garage, they found a…
What would you do if you were rifling through your garage and found this lying in one of the boxes? We hope that this family pet doesn’t do this again, because it clearly scared their poor owne.r But like people, when pets find a favorite spot it’s hard to keep them away.
20. Please put it back
This dog was digging in the yard when it found what it thought was a cool gift for its favorite human. Instead, it found a huge and gross beetle that almost looks like an alien. We hope the owner put it back where it was, because that just looks too gross.
21. Dog on a hot shingled roof
This dog owner came home o see their faithful hound standing on top of their home. They had no idea how they got outside or how they managed to get in that predicament. But at least the pet was safe and sound. Maybe the dog wanted to join the neighborhood watch.
22. The sleep of the dead
This bunny has a peculiar way of sleeping that never fails to disturb its owner. The first time they saw it they thought the bunny had died. But no, it just lies down just like that. If it makes you feel any better, doesn’t the bunny look like its wearing black pants?
23. Cut it off at the…
This cat picture looks a little off when you notice the black spec near its tail. Is that a part of the cat’s tail just fallen off for whatever reason? Actually, it looks like a cat toy that’s in the wrong place for this photo.
24. It’s watching you
This photo is just a pet looking out the window right? There’s something about the dog’s proportions that just make it a little too creepy for words. Some of the comments even say that they thought this was a zombie dog at first. What do you think you’d do if you saw this waiting for you to come home?
25. The eyes can have it
Have you ever heard something tapping on your windows and went out to check? Well what would you do if you did that and saw this dog staring back at you? With that creepy stare, most people might draw the curtains closed and cancel their outdoor plans for the afternoon.
26. The biggest most absolute nope
Halloween costumes are sometimes funny, sometimes scary, but never quite like this. We don’t know what convinced the owners to dress their dog as the world’s biggest spider, but maybe it’d be best if they didn’t do it again. Still, you have to give credit for the incredible work they put in on it. Let’s just hope you never see this in your neighborhood.
27. Something about their smile
This dog seems peaceful enough until you see its smile. Something about the wide smile and the exposed teeth almost feels like it belongs in a slasher film. Still, if the owner loves them then maybe they aren’t all bad.
28. Oh, dear
Ok this one may be cheating since most people don’t keep deer as pets. But you have to admit, seeing this angry face looming in the distance just seems like a reason to stay inside. Just imagine if you saw one of your pets staring at you with a similarly wicked face. What would you do?
29. Calling in sick; Mr. Ed edition
This horse doesn’t want to work very hard. So whenever it’s owner comes around looking for a ride, it just falls down on the ground and plays dead. The owner swears that this is normal behavior for the horse, but you have to wonder. Where are they going that the horse is this determined to avoid it?
30. Is it ok?
This pet photo from Twitter shows a creepy dead eyed stare that you won’t ever forget. Everything about this photo just screams that this pet has seen some stuff. But when you read up on it, it’s just how the pet likes to relax. So it should be safe right?
31. A lot of work for a scratch
The owner of this dog said it best when they said “They think their dog is broken.” You don’t expect to see dogs twist and contort like this on a normal day. But seeing this as the dog frantically chews on an itch makes it all the creepier.
32. Cerebus lies at the gate of Suburbia
Nothing like a two-headed dog to serve as guards for your home. Well, this cerberus wanna be isn’t quite hte mythical creature, it’s just two dogs who were standing really close together. Still, what a photo-op for this owner to share with their friends. Which one do you pet first?
33. Vampire dog
This dog opened his mouth wide at the right time to give their owner a scare. It resembles a vampire getting ready to chomop down on some tasty necks. But this dog might just be in the middle of a yawn instead.
34. Amazing what photo techniques can do
Some animals don’t even have to do anything weird to look scary. It’s all in how you’re looking at them. Take this black and white photo of a dog just sitting at the top of the stairs. It looks very terrifying as if they were about to lock the door on an unwilling victim. Happy Halloween!
35. Better check your camera
This photo of a small shaggy dog was probably not supposed to look scary. But something went wrong with the photo. Maybe the flash left the dog’s eyes looking particularly evil and menacing but the effect is eerie, especially when you notice the dug hole.
36. A smile only a…oh
This creepy dog smile is just unsettling. But when you check out the short animation from Reddit it becomes even worse. It’s just this slow pan to stare deep into the viewer’s soul. Almost as if the dog is daring you to not take it for walkies.
37. Just a happy little dog
The jury is still out on whether this is a creepy dog smile or not. But what makes it creepy for this redditor is that it looks a lot like Bob Ross. You can imagine some redditors making jokes that the famous painter might have a secret night life as a dog. What do you think? Is this a creepy dog?
38. He knows when you are…
This dog doesn’t like being alone. So when the owner is in the bathroom it will stick its head in and watch them no matter what they’re doing. Doesn’t sound too threatening unless you don’t like an open bathroom door. Heeeeere’s Poochy!
39. That’s a weird looking cat
Avoid watching the video if you want to avoid foul language. Anyway, this creepy cat just stared at the camera man with creepy eyes. While he was worried about the creepy stray hurting his own cat he was warning it to go away. But the cat stands motionless leaving the viewer to wonder if it’s even real. But then it moves.
40. Sleep with one eye open
This is one cat that you’ll never sneak up on. When it sleeps, it always sleeps with its eye just partially open. Do you think its worried about getting scared or picked on through the night? Or is this just a creepy way to take a nap.
41. A cat banished by Odin
This cat’s blind eyes give it a very creepy stare that you won’t soon forget. But it does provide some cute commentary by redditors who asked if this cat’s name is Meowmir, referring to mythology. Just imagine if these eyes shined in the darkness.
42. Sometimes you’re just creepy by default
Imagine owning your own hermit crab without looking into them first. You check out your brand new pet in its tank and find this thing creeping along. It’s like a spider took over a sea shell and has an interesting but unnerving scuttle. Still, at least you probably have the most unique pet in the neighborhood.
43. The wholesome horror
How can something so cute seem so threatening? Why it’s easy with the right lighting. Doesn’t it look like this dog is holding onto the child and saying “This one’s mine forever.” If it started making Hannibal Lechter noises then it would make for a decent horror movie scene.
44. The thing about pet monkeys
This redditor bought their pet monkey for only $6, which sounds like a deal. Until it starts demanding attention by putting its hands down on objects in use. You can almost imagine it tugging down a newspaper so it can stare into its owners eyes as if to say “Feed Me.” Let’s hope bananas will do.
45. It’s feeding time
Feeding your pet snake is just a normal part of ownership. But have you ever seen a pet snake grab its mean and then drag it into hiding to feed? Well that’s what the snake in this video does and it’s so creepy!
46. Let me in. Let me in.
This cat is just minding its own business staring at the camera waiting to be let in. But you have to wonder why it would want to go into a dark room when there’s so much bright and colorful scenery right behind it. Is the cat trying to get back to its owner or is it a creature that prefers darkness?
47. The longest hiss
This cat owner caught their pet in a long yawn that looks like it’s hissing in anger. Who dares interrupt the kitty’s nap time after all. Then you notice the two cat paws at the top of the photo and wonder if it’s calling for partners in crime to pounce.
48. A most human reaction
This cat has the strangest markings that make it resemble a human’s face, complete with disapproving eyebrows. This makes the cat a real treat to watch if you are a fan of slightly creepy interactions. Still, this could be oh so much worst. Imagine if it started to talk.
49. Peek a boo
This cat likes to hide in the most unlikely places. But we’re willing to bet the owner didn’t expect to see it hiding under a car. Not only is this a dangerous spot for most cats, but it’s the perfect ambush point for cats that like to jump out at their owner’s feet.
50. Spooky Scary Skeleton Fish
These aren’t photoshopped, they are Skeleton Panda Sea Squirts. They are marine animals that look like glowing skeletons straight out of a Burton film. While you would be hard pressed to call one a pet, just seeing them is definitely a sstartling addition to any fish tank.
