Sometimes, on rainy, dreary November mornings, the Internet gives us little gifts that make the day easier. For me, these gifts are almost always in the form of cats, usually cats with mustaches; I tend to see that part coming.
But I was shocked and amazed by the new trend of cats wearing tights, much the same way I would have been shocked and amazed upon finding $25 on the bathroom floor at my favorite bar. It is exactly as awesome as it sounds.
Unless otherwise indicated, all photos are from Meowtfit of the Day, home of Gucci, the original cat in tights. You can also catch Meowtfit of the Day on Facebook.
Seriously, the first person to do this was a genius. Now, stop staring out the window at the season’s first snow flurries and check out these 10 extremely fashionable cats. You’ll be glad you did. (Photo from Cats Wearing Tights.)

Sitting like a lady is overrated.
This is perhaps a weird thing to admit, but I’m jealous of this cat’s tights. Photo from Cats Wearing Tights.
There are few things that can’t be helped by a lime-green tutu.

I’m pretty sure I have that skirt. Not kidding.
