Photo Cards: When Your Non-Human “Beautiful Baby” is the Love of Your Life

We may not always consider other people's children to be adorable but chances are, if they're not directly slobbering on you, you probably find something cute about photo holiday greeting cards featuring other people's pets. Some pets can just sit there at the center of the photo greeting card and be endearing. Some capture our hearts through a facial close-up into soulful eyes.

Most often, it's the personality of the pet's owner that is delightfully displayed in their digital photos. Whether your “best friend” has fur, feathers or scales, you have probably endeavored to capture them by taking pictures at one of their most typical moments, sometimes while they're interacting with each other or with their human family. The feeling you get from looking at this type of digital photo is a wonderful one to share with friends and family, and sometimes even with business associates, through the sending of photo greeting cards.

When it comes to the costuming of pets, people seem to be polarized. Enough people embrace the concept of dressing up pets, so much so that an entire little industry has evolved for it. On the other hand, some people, such as TV host Jay Leno, have voiced their consternation at the practice, even though they may also be amused by it. If you're thinking of using seasonal costuming or props for your pet's photo greeting card, the only things that count are your own taste and judgment and the loving tolerance of your pet.

Best of all is the time you spend together with your little buddy, and the fun you have taking photos, choosing the best digital photo and sending out those charming photo holiday greeting cards.
