Do I need to put my dog in a box?

No. The box, ribbon and tree are created around your pet from one ordinary photo.

Is it safe to leave ribbon and tinsel around pets?

The ASPCA warns that swallowed tinsel can block the digestive tract and may need surgery, and that broken ornaments can cut the mouth. Keep them out of reach.

Does it work for cats?

Yes. Upload a clear photo of one cat with its face visible.

Photo tips

01Use one pet in the frame.
02A front-facing photo works best, because only the head and front paws show above the box.
03Bright, curious expressions look best peeking out of a present.

The present everyone wants to open

A pet in a gift box is one of the classic Christmas card pictures, but real boxes tip over and real pets climb out. This look builds the box and tree around your pet from one photo. It is a picture of your own pet, not a way to give an animal as a gift.
