What Pet as Human does

An orange cat sits still on a couch, then a shimmer of light sweeps the frame. When it fades, a smiling person sits in the same spot, with matching hair color and a sweater that echoes the pet's fur.

See your pet as a person

Your pet transforms into an adult person with hair the color of its fur and a sweater matching its markings. Clear pet photos work best.

Still unmistakably your pet

The video opens on your exact photo, so your pet’s fur, markings and surroundings carry through the whole effect.

Your pet as the star

Keeps your pet’s fur, markings and face so it still looks like your cat or dog, just doing something it never would.
