So, this week the News asked readers to show us how their pets were staying warm and out of the cold weather.

From snuggling under a blanket to donning stylish dog oodies, these pets have the right idea when it comes to staying out of the cold!

Here’s a few snaps from our readers.

A soft place to sleep: Mr Cruz is loving his new bed from K mart, which his owner Tanya Clarke bought him now that the weather is getting colder. According to Tanya, he loves his lazy Sundays. Photo by Contributed

Hiding: 11-year-old Doberman Jett loves to snooze on his heated rug with his favourite blanket according to owner Maria Wearne. Photo by Contributed

Snuggles: This is Chief, a one-year-old rescue guinea pig. According to owner Jayden Paige, he enjoys cuddling with his humans, and for a little animal has a lot of personality, yelling in his cage for attention and snacks, with his favourites being bananas and tomatoes. Photo by Contributed

Nap time: Sarah Singh’s cat Holly is from the Shepparton animal rescue centre. Holly is often spoilt by her owner and is usually found inside staying warm during winter. Photo by Contributed
