Painting your pet for Halloween is awesome (especially those skeleton ones, those are cool as hell) but make sure you're using the appropriate kind of paint. There's special paint just for animals called Pet Paint that is specifically designed for painting animals. Do not use acrylic or oil based paints (or any other craft paints -you're not even supposed to put these on human skin) on your animals. The last thing I want to see on my dash is that someone's animal had to be rushed to the emergency vet to get medicine or their little tummy pumped or worse because they couldn't stop licking at the paint. So just be careful, I know it's really tempting to water down that acrylic craft paint and just go to town because you've done it to yourself a bunch of times and you've been fine. But let's just not take that chance with the babies, alright? (Also do NOT paint actual human babies with craft paint, they have skin of silk and clouds and cannot handle it... I can only hope this was extremely obvious to everyone but you never know.)
