MYTH: pet outfits are OK just for a quick family pic
REALITY: Many people nowadays dress up their pets for special occasions. It may look cute, but it’s not very kind if your pet feels uncomfortable. You’ll know yours best, so gauge what it will be happy with, and don’t force it into a Christmas jumper just for a picture. Remember, too, it’s easy for an animal to overheat in a centrally heated house with clothing on top of its furry coat. Don’t leave clothing on your pet for too long.
