As much as I appreciate the skill and artistry that goes in to cosplay, I have to admit to secretly judging those who participate. I know I shouldn’t ; it’s okay that you lot are weird and want to play dress up. I’m weird too, and have a number of eccentricities that would likely cause you to raise an eyebrow. We’re all just people, and that’s cool. When people start dressing their pets up though, then I think the raised brows are justified.
Here then is a gallery of just that; pets dressed as your favourite video game characters; sometimes odd, sometimes fantastic, sometime hilarious and sometimes very lightly bordering on cruelty (Where are you NOW, PETA?). They’re mostly dogs; you’d have to be exceptionally brave and/or stupid to get a cat in to a costume.
The only thing all of them have in common is a look upon their faces that screams “Please kill me.”
Katamari Damacy
I just rolled around in my own faeces.
Amaterasu from Okami
This is probably the very best animal cosplay ever. EVER.
Bowser
Bow-wowser? Either way, Mario is a giant dick.
Cats wearing Mario Bros hats
Meowrio and Mewigi.
Super Mario
There’s a joke here about sausages, plumbing and pipes – but I’m not touching it.
A sad and miserable looking Yoshi.
Attach a child in a red Mario hat to my back, and I won’t be responsible for the consequences.
The Legend of Zelda’s Link.
I’ll retrieve the Master-Sword for two scooby-snacks.
The Legend of Zelda’s missing Link
He possesses the Triforce of Corgi, amirite?
Pikachu
Say “Pika” one more time and I’ll bite your face off.
Blanka from Street Fighter II
I will murder your family.

Isn’t bad enough that Bowser gets tea-bagged in every Mario game?

If was that green dog I would chew off my owners balls while he is sleeping. And who gave that Corgi a hash brownie, ..

Shocking! No wonder my pets have been less friendly, the word is out about these human practises. For once, the cats and dogs shall work together to bring down the idiotic evil known as hoomins.

I’m a little late to the party, I know… but just FYI, the third-to-last (or “antepenultimate”, according to Wiktionary – http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/antepenultimate – My new favourite word!) doggie there is Corgnelius, who’s supposedly somewhat of a Tumblr celebrity. 😛 Check out this cute gallery… http://www.buzzfeed.com/catesish/meet-corgnelius-the-cutest-corgi-ever
