The 12 Dog (and Cat) Days of Christmas
‘Tis the season for jolly Christmas carols and giving gifts to the ones we love (including the furry ones!) In tribute to Christmas time, we reworked the classic 12 Days of Christmas by changing the perspective to our pets! Whether you shower them with new toys, or simply spend a bit of extra time with them, the gifts you give them are always more than enough in their eyes.
And if you really want to get into the Christmas spirit, here’s the melody to go along:
On the first day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
A partridge in a pear tree
An ornament in the Christmas tree!
On the second day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
2 turtle doves
2 turtleneck sweaters!
On the third day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
3 French hens
3 French fries!
On the fourth day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
4 calling birds
4 stuffed birds!
On the fifth day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
5 gold rings!
5 gold cookies!
On the sixth day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
6 geese a-laying
6 balls a-bouncing!
On the seventh day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
7 swans a-swimming
7 blankets for a-snuggling!
On the eighth day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
8 maids a-milking
8 KONGs a-rolling! (or 8 feather toys a-flying)!
On the ninth day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
9 ladies dancing
9 ladies petting me!
On the tenth day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
10 lords a-leaping
10 BarkBoxes arriving! (or 10 CatBoxes appearing)!
On the eleventh day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
11 pipers piping
11 squeakers a-squeaking!
On the twelfth day of Christmas, my owners gave to me…
12 drummers drumming
Another 12 months of happiness!
