Christmas cards for small pets.
Rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters make the best Christmas elves. Add 3 or 4 photos and we create a picture of them dressed for Christmas, on the card design you choose. You see them on your card before you pay, then we print each card and post it for you.
From £6.99 a card. UK delivery included, and you see your pet on your card before you pay.
Cards we've made
Every one starts from photos of a real pet. Tap a card to see its design in every colour.
Designs to start from
A few of our Christmas designs, shown with one of our example pets. Yours takes their place, and you can change the colours and words.
Outfits to choose from
Pick one when you make your card, then a setting such as by the fire, under the tree or a snowy village. Dogs, cats and rabbits can also wear one of our cosy onesies.

Photos that work best
Add 3 or 4 clear photos of your rabbit or guinea pig. Two is the minimum.
- Get down to their levelLie on the floor or put them on a table at your eye level, so we see their face, not the top of their head.
- DaylightNear a window, without flash. Small dark eyes need soft light to show.
- Ears and whiskersLop ears, upright ears and long coats all come from your photos, so include one of their whole body.
- A treat helpsA piece of their favourite veg just above the camera gets them looking your way.

How it works
1. Add your pet
Two to four clear photos are all we need. Choose how they're dressed up, or use a favourite photo just as it is.
2. See them on your card
We create their picture while you choose the design and write your message. It takes about a minute, and if it's not quite right, a new one is free.
3. We print it and post it
As soon as you pay, we print your cards and post them to everyone on your list, or send them to you to write yourself.
Questions
Can you post a Christmas card with my rabbit or guinea pig on it straight to someone?
Yes. Add the names and addresses of everyone on your list and we post each card in its own envelope, with your message printed inside, straight to them. It's £6.99 for the first card and £4.49 for each extra person, envelope, stamp and UK delivery included. Or we send them to you to write yourself: £6.99 for one card and £3.49 for each further card in the same parcel, or £27.99 for a pack of 10.
Can you do hamsters and other small pets?
Yes. Hamsters, gerbils, rats, chinchillas and ferrets too. If we can see them clearly in your photos, we can dress them up.
Do you have greetings for rabbits and guinea pigs?
Yes. Hoppy Christmas, Merry Christmas from Some Bunny and Season's Squeaks are a few, or write your own.
How long does it take?
You see your pet's picture on your card before you pay, and as soon as you've paid, we print your cards and post them within 2 working days. In the UK they go Royal Mail 2nd class, included in the price, and usually arrive 2 to 3 days after they're posted. Zoomies delivery (Royal Mail 1st class) is usually a day sooner, for £1.99 more a card posted for you, or once for a parcel sent to you.
When is the last day to order Christmas cards?
For UK delivery by Christmas, order by Wednesday 16 December, or by Thursday 17 December with Zoomies delivery (Royal Mail 1st class). These go by Royal Mail's last recommended posting days. For Canada and Australia, order by Monday 30 November and Friday 20 November.
What if the picture doesn't look like my pet?
You see your pet on your card before you pay, and a new picture is free if it's not quite right, so you only pay once you're happy with it.
