Will your pet be getting extra cuddles today?

National Love Your Pet Day is a good day to set aside some extra time for your pet and show them how much they mean to you.

Whether you have a playful puppy, a cute cat, a beautiful bird or a grumpy goldfish there are lots of ways you can make your day special for your pet....

Take a look at some of our ideas, and let us know yours!

How to celebrate National Love Your Pet Day:

Maybe you could make a new toy for your pet with some spare cardboard?

• Quality Time: You could spend a little bit of extra quality time with your pet. Perhaps an extra walk, or a cuddle on the couch.

• Treats and Toys: Surprise your pet with a new treat or toy. Spoil them!

• Grooming Day: You could give you pet a little spa day, maybe a brush or a gentle bath?

• Outdoor Adventures: If you have a dog you could take it on an outdoor adventure to the park or play with them in the garden a little extra.

• Photo Shoot: Or why not capture some special memories and take some photos or make a special pet photo album of pictures you already have.
