Easter is a time of joy and celebration, perfect for spending time with your friends and family—paws and whiskers included! With a little creativity, you can include pets of all kinds in the Easter fun by planning activities and treats that are just for them. There are many ways to make this holiday extra special for your pets, like thrilling Easter egg hunts and festively themed baskets. In this article, we'll show you some fun and safe ways to celebrate with your four-legged family members. Let's review some treats and activities that are pawsitively adorable!
Dog Easter Ideas
Whether you're planning a thoughtful Easter basket for your dogs or a lively Easter egg hunt, these holiday additions are sure to make their tails wag.
Create a Special Dog Easter Basket
There is nothing more Easter-y than a surprise dog Easter basket full of toys and treats! First, grab an adorable and brightly colored basket and stuff it with some seasonal delights. For Easter dog toys, choose fluffy squeakers or firm chews that come in goofy shapes like bunnies or eggs. Next, mix in some tasty dog Easter treats, either made at home (check out this recipe for "Peep" dog treats) or store-bought, like Supreme Source's beef jerky cuts. And, to top it all off, add a little festive flair with Easter clothes for dogs, like a charming bandana or bunny costume, if your dog loves to dress up.
Plan a Dog Easter Egg Hunt
Dog Easter egg hunts are a delightful twist on a classic tradition. Fill plastic eggs with treats or kibble your dog loves and hide them around your house or yard. Escort your dog to each one and crack them open to keep them safe—dogs love the hunt, but plastic eggs are not chew toys. An Easter egg hunt for dogs is a simple activity that adds some drama and stimulation to your Easter celebration and provides your pup with plenty of rewards in the process.
Cat Easter Ideas
Cats might not be hunting eggs across the lawn, but with a little creativity, they can have some fun nonetheless.
Cat Easter Baskets
Gather a cozy and inviting cat Easter basket (or, at the very least, a decorated box, which your cat will love just the same). Fill it with engaging toys—feather wands, bouncy balls, or catnip-stuffed plush animals in the shape of eggs or bunnies. Add something soft and calming, such as a spring-patterned blanket or holiday collar. These subtle touches keep your cat engaged while injecting them with a dose of festive fun.
Cat Easter Treats
Easter just would not be the same without a snack or two. Homemade Easter cat treats give you the option to control what's put into them, or you can pick up gourmet-quality store-bought ones. To make it even more fun, hide a few around the house so your cat will have their own egg hunt. It's a simple way to give exercise, mental stimulation, and a little holiday spirit.
