Charlie was definitely in the mood to be festive for Purim. How cute is he in his pumpkin costume? It must be the orange and the sequins! I found this at Target during the Halloween clearance. It was marked down to $0.99, and I’ve been holding it for Purim since then. So cute.

None of the other pets would participate, but at least one was a good sport.
