If you’ve ever wished your dog could be on your wedding invitations, your cat could star on your bookmarks, or your pet could casually appear on your desk stationery - welcome, you’re our people.
Here at Charlotte Wakeford Stationery, we believe pets aren’t just pets they’re family, muses, soulmates, and low-key our favourite design collaborators. And in 2026, pet-inspired stationery is bigger, better, and more personalised than ever.
From weddings to workdays, gifting to reading, here’s your ultimate guide to the most beautiful, meaningful ways to include your furry best friend in your stationery this year.
Why Pet Stationery Is Trending in 2026
Pet personalisation has officially moved beyond novelty and into luxury lifestyle territory and we are obsessed.
In 2026, we’re seeing:
Hyper-personalisation (pets illustrated to look like actual them)
Sentimental keepsakes over disposable gifting
Matching product collections (because yes, your bookmark should match your notepad)
Pet-led weddings (dogs as ring bearers? Cats on save the dates? Always yes.)
Pet lovers want stationery that feels emotional, thoughtful, and joyful and that’s exactly what we create.
