Which combinations work
You and your pet: the most popular version. Put yourself on the hook as photo 1 and let the pet take the verse as photo 2, or the other way round if you want the pet to open. Two pets: a dog and a cat, or two dogs, trading the hook and the verse.
Dogs and cats give the most reliable results because their faces read clearly in a photo. Other animals can work, but expect more variation between renders.
What a pet clip looks like
The pet stands upright at the mic like a performer, in the same teal studio and the same four shots as a human clip. It keeps its real fur colour, markings and shape so you can recognise it, and its paws stay paws: the generator is told not to give animals human hands or fingers.
An animal’s mouth does not move like a human’s, so a pet raps the way you would imagine a dog or cat rapping, not with human lip shapes. That is usually the funny part.
Pet photo tips
Get down to eye level and fill most of the frame with the face. Use daylight, keep the eyes open and visible, and make sure only one animal is in the picture. Avoid costumes, cones or anything covering the muzzle, and skip blurry action shots.
Your own photo follows the usual rules: one person, face visible, no sunglasses.
Posting the pet version
Download the 9:16 MP4 with the original sound, or the Silent version, and label the post as AI-generated. The pet’s jaw moves on its own lines of the song and stays shut while the other one raps.
