Nope. Don't care what my Meowmmy sez. I ain't wearing a costume. Don't care if it's her favorite holiday. Don't care if I look cute. A cat was meant to be nekkid.

I haven't decided yet. I'm generally anti-clothes for kitties but perhaps a hat just long enough for a picture. Maybe I'll still have a few fingers left afterward.

I won't be wearing a costume unless the woman wants to end up in the emergency room full of scratches and bites. How humilliating. Force a dog to dress up, not a cat!

People who put clothes on cats need HELP. Cats were created to be perfect just as they are. Come on, folks -- indulge your neuroses in some other (harmless!) way!

Hopefully, my cats will be hiding. I don't want to have to deal with them bolting out the door. Besides, if I tried to dress them OR my 2 dogs up, they'd hold subversive meetings in the middle of the night to plot my demise...

Mummy may try to get me into a costume cuz' she loves to take pictures of me. But I'm just not sure how I feel about wearing clothes. I'm big on going au naturel! Even if Mum somehow or other manages to dress me up, don't count on me holding still long enough for a photo op! ;)

If my human ever tried to put a costume on me, I'd throw up in her bed later, when she wasn't expecting it. Clothes are for hairless cats only.

My Mum's still trying to get me to keep a collar on. Jaffa already looks like a pumpkin and Lulu's um 'unique' temperament makes every day Halloween in our house. Costumes not needed here. Be afraid.

Nope, they hate anything put on them - including collars. Thank goodness for Microchips!

Well, I have 6, opps I mean 7 kitties need to make a new page for the newest.

I never dressed them up so as they have gotten older they have become stuck in thier ways and I want to live to see Halloween............

That being said I may slip one of them some catnip and when he crashes I will put a hat on him or something!!

I would never do that to a cat. People who subject cats to this don't really understand cats at all.
Purred by: KinKy (Catster Member)

October 20th 2009 at 4:53 pm

IF I were to dare dress KinK, or any of the other catZ in my clutter, they would surely gang up one night and kill me in my sleep, or maybe take vulgar picutures of me and post them on the World WILD Web!

Cats have waaay too much dignity to were a costume! Besides fur needs to breath and fly free!

My cats would kill me! Only my Peanut would tolerate me coming near her with any sort of clothing, but she would be so unhappy. The other three; Milo, Manny, and Chrissy Snow would let my arm know of their displeasure with clothing.

I always have to dress up when I go outside, but I escaped the horrors of wearing a costume, for now. Thankfully the little pumpkin hoodies were just one size too small! Muahahah.

Though I have a sneaking suspicion mum is ordering clothes for Christmas photos....
