The Christmas Gift Guide for Dog and Cat People (Starring Their Own Pet)
Every family has one member who's never once complained about their Christmas present, and they're probably asleep under the tree right now. This year, put them on the gifts. Upload one photo, see your pet on the product live in your browser, and order it knowing exactly what will arrive.
Four Christmas backdrops
Your pet's cutout sits in front of a backdrop like a real portrait sitting. For the holidays there are four: Evergreen Lights, Holiday Plaid, Snowfall and Cranberry. Each one works in a circle, an arch, a rounded square or a heart.
For the tree
The Christmas Stocking ($45)

A fleece stocking with your pet's portrait and their name across the top, in five looks: Cranberry, Holiday Plaid, Evergreen Lights, Snowfall and Cream. The one stocking nobody argues over.

- The Errands Tote ($29). Heavy cotton canvas for the gift wrap run.
More than one pet?
Seat up to four pets together in one portrait in front of a backdrop, for $5 per extra pet. The dog and the cat, finally in the same photo.
Left it to the last minute?
The Strike a Pawse gift card arrives by email the moment it's paid. They upload their own pet and pick their own gift.
