Clothes & Accessories!

[artemdre]

Hello! I'm Artem, and I'm new to the forum. I just recently got my little girl C.A.T. (Cleopatra Aphrodite Taurus), born on May 1st, 2014, and I'm looking to get her some clothes and any other fun things that she might like. Do you guys know of any good websites/stores for cool sphynx accessories? Thank you!

Your baby is just too cute congratulations, i'd look on ebay & search dog clothes, ive bought quite a few bits on there & they are really cheap, most come from china & take a couple of weeks but only cost £2 or so with free p&p

Welcome!! Your girl is adorable! We had a lot of luck with small dog clothes, as long as they are sleeveless they should fit great and are a cheaper alternative because some cat clothes can be pricey!

Yes I've ordered t- shirts and jumpers/sweaters from ebay . They come from china but only a couple of quid as us Brits say. 2 dollars approx. I tend to leave mine naked but occasionally pop em a t-shirt on to keep em used to it as the younger of mine Sookie, tends to get " disabled legs" for the first 10 mins until she forgets about it. It's just in case my heating breaks or they need a vets visit.

Welcome you and baby C.A.T !
Mine loooove Snoozzy hide and seek bed! Da bird toy, ping pong balls, crinkle tunnel, fetch with large metal free hair ties, smart cat climber door mounted,
Fuzzy pipe cleaner sticks mad into circles or curly q's.

Min run naked and no collars because I don't want them to get stuck / hurt in the clothing or collars if I am not watching 110% . Please always supervise with clothing and any dangling string toy, and Da Bird pole toy- my guys get soo feisty their legs can get caught up in the string ..I put away pole toys when done.

Clothes- I have seen dog clothes at the dollar store that can be cut to be sleeveless or thrift store baby onesies cut to fit, sock sweaters made with cut outs- baby face clothes to wipe kitty face with warm water, baby wipes warmed by rolling between your hands briefly for touch ups -
The list goes on! Lol

Looking forward to pics of baby C.A.T !

Welcome to the lair, your girl is gorgeous! I would say definitely some sock sweaters, and hit up the pet stores like Petsmart! Since Pip is still growing I usually get the dog clothes at Petsmart on clearance since they're just a couple of dollars. Once she is full grown I would say then do the splurging since then you don't have to worry about spending a bunch of money and your baby growing out of them within a week. Getting her started early will definitely help with getting her used to wearing clothes, Pip got started at 10 1/2 weeks and now is a full blown DIVA. If you or anyone you know can sew I would also suggest that route too, I found some cute patterns from Mccall's that all I have to do is alter the length to fit her and they'll work. As far as toys mine loves the crinkle sack, tunnels, balls, wand toys and definitely catnip socks. I also have a little kitty that I got at Petco, it had as a little heat pack in it Pip loves to play with it and snuggle with it, definitely a hit with her! Good luck and have fun!

From time to time there are vendors who pay to advertise their products in the store front. In order to make sure no one is receiving favoritism and unintentional advertising, it is best to personal message names of sites/makers of clothing.
Thanks for understanding. It looks like many of you have had great experiences with manufacturers, so feel free to share with them the ability to open a store front on The Lair by contacting Admin.
