Put a living pet portrait on your WhatsApp Status
Status updates are where friends and family actually see your pet. A short loop is perfect for it.
Living portraits are short, so they fit comfortably in a single Status update without being split.
They also make great greetings for birthdays and festivals. See ideas for every occasion.
How to do it
- Create your living portrait and download it to your phone.
- Open WhatsApp, go to Updates, and tap the camera or pencil icon to add a status.
- Choose the video from your gallery, add a caption if you like, and send.
- Or send it straight into a family group chat.

Will WhatsApp reduce the quality?
WhatsApp compresses videos a little. Starting from a higher-resolution video (paid plans) gives the best result.
Can I send it to many people?
Yes. It's a normal video file you can forward or post.
