I have two and my girl, Daphne, LOVES to wear t-shirts. The boy, Niles, HATES IT!
...but I dress them both up, regardless.:tinysmile_aha_t:

Kaci looks like a diva to me!:tinysmile_fatgrin_t
Kaci gets mad if I take her clothes off, especially her necklaces!! She'll grab at them and sits all proud with her neck streched out until I put them back on! :tinysmile_twink_t: She may be a diva!

Not sure where she got it from...... :tinysmile_classes_t

My cats don't mind being dressed, but I don't do it very often. I figure if I was comfortable being naked all the time, I would be, who needs clothes?! I keep the temperature nice for them all year long so I usually only dress them when visiting their doctor, and then only if there won't be any procedures performed (don't want them to get in the way). That's only because I don't want people (other than their doctor) touching them too much, hehe. If they need transported during the winter, I usually put a tee or light sweater on them.

I never use anything that could be itchy like thick yarn or wool, and only practical clothes, nothing purely decorative; they aren't dolls!

I haven't yet but I'm moving to St. Louis which gets pretty cold in the winter. I plan on getting Harry a couple sweaters then so he can be warm.

I just bought Stella a Halloween-themed black and orange striped knitted sweater/vest from Petco the other day. It has a black skull and crossbone patch on back. I really should say I bought it for myself. Doubt she cares for it! Not sure if it fits yet. I have to wait until I can take off her E-Collar tomorrow (I'm afraid if I take it off so she can try on the sweater, she will put up a big fight when I have to put it back on). I also purchased a witch hat that has an orange bow on it. It's suppose to fit snug to her head with the strap, but I think her head is too small. I'm sure she won't mind me returning that.

I only have a few things for him right now cause he is growing so fast. I was using socks at first, but I have graduated to using the sleeves of long sleeved shirts I don't wear anymore. I just cut the sleeve to his size wether it's the end of the sleeve, or the middle of the sleeve. I just chop off what I need and cut two little holes for his leggies, and he's good to go!! He even has a cashmere sweater. My husband threw one of mine in the dryer!! Came out looking like it would only fit a teddy bear!

I have only dressed Decibel once or twice. She hates it. She just goes to bed and tries to sleep untill I take the clothes off again.
She actually seems depressed.
My mother are knitting a babysoft sweater for her I hope she might like that better. Its mostly for trips to the vet and stuff.
I am not sure I am going to buy more clothes for her when she hates it that much. If she prefers to spend the winter naked in bed under the covers I actually understand her.
Who wouldn't like to spend the winter like that? :BigSmile:

Mine look like munchkin cats when I dress them! They walk crouched down and creep across the floor on really short looking legs. I sometimes ignore them and make them wear them anyway.:LOL:

Snuffie runs around frantic without clothes on so I don't let her go on too long without something as I'm afraid she is gonna hurt herself. I think she is colder without them and runs around to stay warm, poor girl!

Piglet is the same way...she seems to prefer having clothes on. When she is naked, she is stuck to me like glue (probably to stay warm!) but when she has some clothes on, she seems a little more independent.

I only have a few things--we mostly wear them only when we are going out to the vet or when it feels really drafty in our house. My cats don't really like wearing anything in the beginning, but don't mind the fleece kind of coats if they fit correctly. My vet has a tissy fit everytime he sees one on my cats--always asks me "You're not keeping these on him/her all the time are you?" He thinks they cause skin irritation. I never leave one on for more than a few hours--am too afraid they would strangle themselves by stepping through them somehow. So they are only on when they are supervised.
