Personalised pet gifts

Give someone a storybook starring the pet they love

Personalised pet gifts for dog and cat owners

A beautifully illustrated hardcover starring their pet, with that pet's name on the front. We've written the story; every page is illustrated as their pet, from a few photos — and the dedication inside is in your own words.

  • Their name and a few photos are enough
  • A few photos from the family album are enough
  • Your own dedication printed inside the front
  • £49, UK delivery included

Who it works for

  • The parent whose dog is now their whole personality. You know the one.
  • A partner's first pet together. Anniversary territory, and much better than a framed photo.
  • Someone who has just lost a pet. Gentle, personal, and something to do with the grief. Ask first.

You don't have to know everything

You are not expected to know their routines, their nicknames or the story behind every photo. All you need is their name and a few photos.

  • Use the details you already know. Their name and a few clear photos are enough to start a book.
  • Ask a family member for the rest. A family member can help you find clear photos of their face, build and markings.
  • Borrow photos from the family group chat. A clear daylight face shot and a full-body side profile do most of the work.
  • Include a personal dedication. Printed on its own page at the front, in your words. Two or three lines work well.
  • Nothing prints until you approve the proof. If something needs fixing — likeness or a fact — email us before you approve and we won't print.

Occasions this works for

A birthday. For the person who already has the mug, the tote bag and the framed photo. A book about their own dog or cat is the version of that gift they will read more than once.

Christmas. It survives the day itself, which most Christmas presents don't. Order early enough to see the proof without rushing, and keep the parcel unopened until the morning.

A new puppy or kitten. The first year disappears faster than anyone expects. A book made in those early months keeps their likeness in a story you can read together.

Moving house. A move is unsettling for the animal and the people. A familiar pet in a written story can be a comforting gift for the new home.

A thank you. For a sitter, a neighbour who took the dog out, or a family member who drove to the vet. It says what the card doesn't have room for.
