Pet lovers plan to give their furry friends a special Christmas

As our furry friends bring us joy all year round, this Christmas pet lovers will be treating their animals to a festive season like no other.

In fact, 82% of pet owners say that despite the cost-of-living crisis, they plan to give their pet a special Christmas according to national charity, Blue Cross.

‘Tis the season of wagging tails at the sight of a new toy, new bed, new collar or edible treats as nearly two thirds of us (62%) plan to cut back on small indulgences in order to be able to afford a Christmas present for their four-legged friend.

Aston spoke to Tracy Genever, head of welfare standards and education at Blue Cross.
