Stockings hung by the chimney with care? Check. Shining star hung upon the highest bow? Figgy pudding has been brought? Check, check.

While you’re bringing good tidings and decking the halls this holiday season, don’t forget to deck out your pet in festive attire. Getting your furry friend donned appropriately doesn’t have to be a chore, and it doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg. Take your pet from frumpy to fabulous with these three easy steps.

1.There's the classic Santa hat move. Add a cat and you've got your Christmas card ready to go.

2. Lacking a Santa hat? A string of Christmas beads make for fantastic holiday attire.

3. Christmas lights are also an option.

Just remember--you don't need a dog or a cat to celebrate the holidays.
