We are weeks away from that magical time of the year. Smitten pet owners love to dress their fluffballs in Christmasy costumes or quirky accessories.

Etsy is TV advertised with handmade products created by worldwide artisans. Here is a selection of festive outfits and collar slip-on items handmade by British artisans, and you might be interested in my Christmas gift list for your furry companion too.

Festive scarves for your cat or dog

Handmade in Yorkshire.

I love this stylish Christmasy scarf made by Myrtles Crafty Knits. The shop has hand-knitted scarves for all occasions for the posh cat in town.

The Santa-red knitted scarf has fluffy white cuffs and is secured with a Merry Christmas button where both ends overlap.

Measurement guidelines:

Use string to measure the neck and a ruler to get the exact size. You do not want the scarf fitting as snug as a collar, so allow an extra inch.
