These eggs-tremly cute pets are taking over Easter on Fifth Avenue.

In typical New York fashion, revelers are displaying their creativity with over-the-top Easter outfits — and even dressing up their dogs and cats.

“I love dressing my boys as bunnies, so they’re going to have the bunny ears,” pet couturier Anthony Rubio told The Post.

Rubio has been attending the Easter Parade and Bonnet Festival with his twin chihuahuas Bogie and Kimba since 2012 — so his pups are used to donning their Sunday best for the stroll in Midtown.

“They actually sit on my lap and they put their little arms into the clothing just like little kids would when you dress them up,” he said.

Rubio, a Bronx native, painstakingly designs the dogs’ ensembles based on their posture.

“One dog likes to straddle my arm like he’s riding on a horse, so everything in his design is always on his shoulders and on his back,” he explained.

“The other dog sits in my arms straight up, face forward, so his stuff is all on the front.”

Fans of the coutured canines stop them along the route — Fifth Avenue from 49th to 57th Street — to ask for photos.

“There’s nothing that brings more joy to my heart than seeing the reactions,” he said.

Elizabeth Bays is also bringing her fur baby — her 8-month-old kitten Dewey, who will be sporting a pink tuxedo to match Bay’s boyfriend.

This is the first time Dewey will make an appearance at the parade — which runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Easter Sunday — although he likely won’t be wearing a bonnet.

“I’ve tried. He chews them up,” said Bays.

The South Carolina native, who now lives in Hell’s Kitchen, was always fascinated by the event because of the 1948 movie “Easter Parade” with Fred Astaire and Judy Garland.

“I have to say, it did live up to my romanticization … just seeing the creativity, that’s what I really love about it … some people just go all out,” she gushed.

She used to bring her late cat Screamy, whom she’ll pay homage to by attaching her photo to her bonnet.

In 2022, the first time she took the feline to the festivities, “it was like I was like a celebrity,” she recalled.

“People were like, ‘Oh my God, you brought a cat.'”

Upper East Side native Emily Driscoll passed down the holiday tradition to her children, Hartley, 3, and Gemma, 1. Michael Nagle

Upper East Side native Emily Driscoll has been “going to the parade as long as I can remember,” she said.

Now, the mom of two has passed on the beloved holiday tradition to her children — and takes their outfits’ themes very seriously.

“This year, we’re going to do a pollinators’ theme … that celebrates where did all these flowers come from,” she said.

At first, she wasn’t sure if her one-year-old would be interested in participating.

“When I was pregnant with her, she made an appearance as an egg,” she said.

“I showed her her hat and she just squealed with excitement, so I think that was a good sign.”
