Pet-friendly tips 

With your personal fundraising page set up and shared with friends and family, you can focus on planning the big day! If your Cupcake Day bash will be pet-friendly, here are some tips to keep in mind: 

Cupcake sampling: Though it might be tempting to offer them a treat, your pets should not be sampling your cupcakes. Chocolate, sweets and baked goods can be dangerous for pets if ingested. Check out this blog for a great “pupcake” recipe! 

Pupcakes are made with dog friendly ingredients. Your furry friend will certainly think they are “pawesome!” 

Pet-safe space: If you have a lot of people coming over for your party, make sure you create a safe place for your pets to hide while guests are arriving. Consider putting them in a room with, their bed, some of their favourite toys and the radio on softly. Once everyone settles in, you can bring your pet out to join the party! 

Furry guests: A party is not a good time to introduce pets to each other. If you have friends who want to bring along their dog, consider having a meet and greet at an earlier date so your pets can get familiar before the party. 

With these tips in mind, your Cupcake Day party is sure to be a hit! Thinking of planning a party for your human friends only? Check out our Celebrate Cupcake Day page for more sweet party inspo!
