With a nip in the air and pumpkin spice in your coffee cup, it may be time to think about donning your cat in a cozy sweater, especially if you have a hairless cat like a Sphynx or Peterbald, one that had to be shaved, or a cat that seems to be cold. We thought you might need a little help picking the purr-fect pullover for your favorite feline so we curated the complete cat sweater guide.
Before we let the cat out of the bag about our fabulous finds, keep in mind these tips:
- Take their measurements and compare to the manufacturer guidelines to ensure a proper fit
- Start slow when putting on the sweater
- If your cat doesn't want any part of the sweater, don't force it! You can always opt for a heated cat house or bed to warm them up on chilly days.
