Patriotic Pets

I PURR ALLEGIANCE 

Tara wasn't quite sure how the pledge went, but she knew she looked super cute doing it. 

HORSE ASSEMBLE!

Thank goodness for the Memorial Day parade. Earl thought he would never have a chance to wear his Captain America costume again. 

PARTY PUPS

"And to the republic for which it stands, one nation under dog, indivisible..." 

SUPER STARS AND STRIPES

"Don't laugh! My patriotism is so paws to the wall, you will be begging for goggles soon enough."

DARE TO DREAM

Like many Americans, Rufio had a dream. His dream was to one day be given a hat with ear holes. 

FLAG GIRL

Erica was about to claim her pasture for the good ol' USA, it was one small step for Erica and one giant leap for horsekind. 

LET'S GET CRAFTY

When Betsy hits Jo-Ann Fabrics, she shops until she drops, especially when patriotism is involved. 

UNCLE SNUGGLE

Uncle Sam recently revealed his kitten for a new Army ad campaign, and somehow it's just not as intimidating. 

FREEDOM FERRET

"I may be a minority when it comes to pets, but in America my paw is equal to that of any cat or dog."

DRESS TO IMPRESSED

Norman was overjoyed that the novelty-tie store opened up just in time for Memorial Day. 

LADY AND THE COW

Gertrude got into all the hottest Memorial Day barn dances. Just another perk of being BFFs with Lady Liberty. 

AMERI-PUP TO THE CORE

Some may bleed red, white and blue, but Morris sprouted it in fur form.

LIZARD LOVER

Carl couldn't wait to bust out his American flag kerchief for the Memorial Day hoedown. The ladies love it. 

BUT A BOW ON IT

Digger found while collecting donations for his Dog Scout troop that adding some puppy-dog eyes to his ensemble usually helped. 

BUCKING BBQ

"Watch out, my little mules. The silly shades are out and I haven't even tried the punch yet. Best Memorial Day ever? I think so."

TRUE BLUE AND TUCKERED 

After losing eight straight sack races, Bart was still feeling patriotic, but a little tired and dejected as well. 

THIS IS MY GOOD SIDE

Carla was so certain that her patriotic efforts would land her on a piece of U.S. currency that she spent hours practicing her profile shot. 

VALLEY GIRL

"I'm, like, totally digging Memorial Day this year. Not only I am, like, supporting my country and stuff, but stars and stripes are totally en vogue right now. I mean, have you seen Rihanna lately?"

HOOF IT OUT

Trisha understood that lipstick and pigs don't mix, but no one told her how fabulous swine look decked out in patriotic gear. 

FLAG-WAVING FURRY FRIEND

Norm the squirrel never forgets to hang his American flag outside his tree house for Memorial Day weekend. It may take him two weeks to hang it, but he never forgets. 

PURRROUD KITTEN 

Although Princess loved her patriotic collar, she couldn't wait to put her pink, diamond-studded necklace back on. 

FESTIVE FIDO 

Nellie felt the hat would be festive enough, but her owner insisted on the bows. Next year, Nellie plans on dressing her owner up instead. 

AMERICAN PETIZEN

It doesn't get more American than a Golden Retriever with a Harley Davidson bandana and a pair of Sally Jesse Raphael glasses. 

PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAT

Whoever decided eagles should be the the country's mascot never saw how good a cat looked in front of an American flag. 

COMMITED CRAB

Herman really outdid himself when he decided to have his shell professionally painted for the party. 

DOGS WITH DIGNITY 

Double the dog, double the patriotism. 

SMILING INSIDE

Don't be fooled by her serious pout. Deep down, Lisa is really stoked about the long weekend.
