Pet Pictures with Santa in Chicagoland and Northern Illinois
Nowadays people want pet pictures not just of their children with Santa but with their pets as well. Many people consider their dogs and cats as cherished members of the family. Because of this pet pictures with Santa have become almost a fad. A number of malls, as well as stores and animal shelters are now offering this service to the public. Most places only allow dogs or dogs and cats to be photographed, but some places have gone so far to allow just about any species to have their picture taken with Santa. We are not sure how he feels when someone shows up with their pet cobra, alligator or skunk but it could be interesting.
