Make the holidays even merrier by sharing the joy of Christmas with your four-legged family members!

Your cat or dog might not be able to sip eggnog or gorge themselves on sugar cookies (like their pawrents do), but that doesn’t mean they don’t get to be a part of the holiday cheer. Include your pet in this year’s festivities by making this cute DIY advent calendar for dogs or cats- all furry besties will love it!

To put together this fun advent treat calendar, you won’t have to break the bank. In case you don’t already have most of the supplies at home, all of them can be found at a local dollar store or craft store.
