Pets as Mascots - The New Trend!

The Joy of School Spirit: Pet Costumes Edition

If you've been to a school sports event recently, you may have noticed an interesting trend. Alongside students and alumni dressed up in their team's colors or costumes representing the school mascot, increasingly there are pets too!

Having pets dressed up as mascots or in team colors adds a friendly, fun element that can help to further encourage this sense of unity and camaraderie.

Benefits Beyond School Spirit:

Beyond encouraging school spirit, having your pet dress-up for games also has other benefits. It's not uncommon for people to experience stress around big game days – there’s pressure on the players to perform well; students may be anxious about whether their team will win or lose etc.,

Research shows that interaction with animals helps reduce stress levels so imagine how calming it could be if you had fluffy 'mascot' right by your side during such high-stress situations! Plus, these costumes are conversation starters which is great because events like these should ultimately bring everyone together rather than causing division due sports rivalries.

A Fun Way To Participate:

In fact some schools have actually started hosting separate costume contests just for pets - making sure no one feels left out!
