PHOENIX, AZ, Oct 06, 2009 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- PETM | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Pets can have their devilish day in disguise with help from PetSmart(R) (NASDAQ: PETM | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) this Halloween. According to a recent PetSmart survey, nearly 20 million pets (with help from their parents) will sport a costume this year.

GIVEAWAY: What Costume Would You Buy For Your Four-Legged Friend?

"Pets are like our children, and pet parents love to include their pets in the fun of dressing up for Halloween," said Rashell Cooper, PetSmart's fashion expert. "Our unique selection of costumes this year is a combination of returning favorites, like the cow and bumble bee, and some great new choices, like the firedog, dinosaur and lion."

PetSmart is also the exclusive retailer of popular Disney character costumes, like Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Tigger, Snow White and Tinker Bell. All pet costumes are all available for less than $20 U.S. ($22 CAN).

Cats will not be ignored this Halloween. PetSmart also has Halloween hats just for cats including a devil, witch, jester, cowboy and mouse. All cat hats are available for $6.99 U.S. ($7.99 CAN).
