Jennifer Garner, Nick Jonas and more stars know there’s nothing better than a pet party to celebrate their four-legged companions’ birthdays.
Garner has raised a coop of chickens in her backyard for many years. In July 2018, Garner even celebrated their “hatch day” with a homemade bug cake.
Jonas, for his part, hosted a puppy party in August 2021 for German Shepherd Gino, who was originally a gift from wife Priyanka Chopra Jonas two years earlier. (The married couple also are proud dog parents to Diana and Panda.)
The Jonas Brothers musician presented Gino with a custom cake made out of dog treats and his name written across the top in icing. Jonas also wrapped a new bone toy as an additional present.
Amanda Seyfried also loves doting on her pooch, Finn. To commemorate his special day in September 2022, she had a custom cake made of his face.

“It’s our Missy moo’s birthday today! We fostered her three years ago and fell in love with her on day one so asked to adopt,” the Thunderbolts star wrote via Instagram in January 2023. “She is the LIGHT OF MY LIFE. I’ve never walked with someone who gets more smiles just walking down the street than she does.”
She added: “She snuggles me when I’m sad and sings opera when I come home. Even makeup artists are jealous of her natural eye shadow look. This dog … she makes my heart happy.”
