But as these photograph show some of your cute pets have been getting in the festive spirit by dressing up with antlers or even in Christmas jumpers.

Some may have also enjoyed opening the windows of their Pet Advent Calendars.

Here, we have a lovely photo of Susie and Millie who were wearing their jumpers.

We know that Bolton has some of the most wonderful pets but we want our readers to send in their festive photos of their pets.

In the past we have appealed to our readers on social media and this time we will feature your photos in the paper in our Christmas 2023 supplement.

You can submit your entries by emailing robert.kelly@nqnw.co.uk and tell us your name and where you are from, alternatively post them on the social media post or in the assignment below.

We are really looking forward to seeing your entries.
