Why pet portraits need a different prompt
Human prompts can rely on the face to carry identity. Pet prompts cannot. A model that changes the ear shape, muzzle length, or fur markings produces an animal that no longer looks like the owner’s pet. The Pumpkin Pet prompt therefore names breed, fur color, markings, and eye color before it describes the costume.
The costume is also constrained: it must fit naturally and must not cover the eyes or change the species. That rules out full-face masks and oversized plush heads, which are common failure modes in pet costume generation.
