Free Pet Calendars for 2027: Where to Print Them

You can download free printable 2027 pet calendars as editable PDFs from CalendarLabs, then print them at Office Depot/OfficeMax from $0.18 per page in black and white or $0.70 in color, or at Staples from $0.34 and $0.82. That combination — a free file plus a per-page print order — is the cheapest route to a wall calendar with cats or dogs on it, and a full 13-page color set lands somewhere between $9 and $11 depending on the chain. The catch is not the price of the download.

It is that the free files carry a license condition, that printing one copy at home on letter paper looks different from a bound photo calendar, and that the veterinary "pet holiday" calendars some practices hand out have not reached their 2027 edition yet.

What's actually free for 2027

CalendarLabs publishes a free printable 2027 Cat Wall Calendar as an editable PDF, described as a template you can customize before printing. The listing names no payment and no account. Dog owners get two choices from the same publisher: a 2027 Dog Photo Calendar as an editable template of about 251 KB, and a 2027 Dog Breed Monthly Wall Calendar as an editable PDF of about 284 KB.

The file sizes matter more than they look — a few hundred kilobytes means light artwork, not a glossy photo spread. For the photo-bearing versions, CalendarLabs' 2027 photo-calendar hub lists a cat photo calendar in JPG or PDF with a new kitty each month plus US public holidays, and a portrait dog version that also carries US public holidays. Those are the files with pictures on them, as opposed to the blank grids you'd fill in yourself.

The license condition to read before you trim

The limitation on these downloads is a license term, not a paywall. CalendarLabs' 2027 monthly calendar terms permit printing multiple copies only if the copyright text at the bottom remains intact. In practice that rules out the one edit most people want to make — cutting the footer off for a cleaner look on the wall.

If you plan to print a stack for a shelter fundraiser, a classroom, or a vet waiting room, the footer has to stay on every sheet. It also shapes your print order. Ask the shop not to trim to the grid, and leave the bottom margin alone when you set up the file.

Cheapest per-page printing, chain by chain

Office Depot/OfficeMax is the lower-priced of the two office chains for a plain document order. Its document printing page lists black and white from $0.18 per page and color from $0.70 per page, with same-day in-store pickup when the order is placed by 2:00 PM local time. Staples Print Services takes a customer-uploaded file for in-store pickup or delivery and lists document printing from $0.34 per page in black and white and $0.82 in color, in Letter, Legal and Ledger sizes.

For a 13-page calendar — a cover plus twelve months — that puts a color set near $11 at Staples and closer to $9.10 at Office Depot. If you want one copy today and nothing more, Office Depot's self-service printing lets you print straight from email or a USB drive at an in-store printer, with copies starting at $0.18 and uploads securely wiped after 24 hours. That skips the order queue entirely.

FedEx Office's online print service accepts an uploaded file around the clock, names PDF as its preferred format, and offers same-day or next-day store pickup for orders placed before noon Central — though it states that availability varies by store capacity and paper stock. Since the CalendarLabs files are already PDFs, no conversion step is needed anywhere. Quick comparison for a 13-page order:

• Office Depot/OfficeMax — from $2.34 B&W, from $9.10 color; 2:00 PM cutoff for same-day pickup
• Staples — from $4.42 B&W, from $10.66 color; pickup or delivery
• FedEx Office — upload any hour, PDF preferred; before noon Central for same-day pickup
• Office Depot self-service — from $0.18 a copy, print it yourself from email or USB

When a print shop is the wrong answer

A per-page print order gives you loose sheets. Nobody binds them, punches them, or mounts them unless you ask and pay for finishing — so what you hang is a stack of letter-size pages, usually with a binder clip or a staple at the top. If you want a bound wall calendar with your own dog or cat in it, a retail photo lab is the different product.

Walgreens Photo lists 8x11 wall calendars at about $24.99 with free same-day store pickup, based on 2026 retail pricing. The important limitation: those use the lab's own templates and your uploaded photos. They will not print a downloaded PDF, so the free CalendarLabs file has no path through that service.

So the decision splits cleanly. Free download plus per-page printing if you want the published cat or dog artwork cheaply; a photo lab at roughly $25 if you want your own pet and a finished object.

The 2027 veterinary pet-holiday calendars aren't out

One gap worth knowing before you go hunting. The annual pet-holiday calendars that veterinary practices reprint and hand out — the free downloadable editions published by veterinary software companies, including PetDesk's — are still showing their 2026 guide to pet holidays as of November 2026. That means there is no 2027 edition to download yet.

If your plan was a calendar marked with National Dog Day, Adopt a Shelter Pet Day and the rest, you are waiting on a publisher, not searching the wrong way. The practical move is to print a CalendarLabs file now for the dates and the artwork, and check back on the veterinary editions closer to year-end if the pet-holiday markings are what you actually wanted.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many pages should I expect to print?

Plan on 13 — twelve months plus a cover. At Office Depot's color rate of $0.70 per page that is $9.10; at Staples' $0.82 it is $10.66.

Can I print these calendars to sell at a fundraiser?

CalendarLabs permits printing multiple copies only with the copyright text at the bottom left intact, so check that term against what you intend to do before committing to a run.

Which file format should I upload to the print shop?

PDF. FedEx Office names PDF as its preferred format, and CalendarLabs' cat and dog wall calendars are already editable PDFs, so there is no conversion step.

What's the fastest way to get one copy in hand?

Office Depot's in-store self-service printers accept a file from email or USB and start at $0.18 a copy, with uploads wiped after 24 hours — no order queue, no pickup window.
