Post by: bright rabbit 1 on November 14, 2019, 12:24:55 PM

Would any of you put your animals in Christmas outfits?

Depends.

I don't have anything right now but I plan on having a pup int he future and in the past weve put antlers or a santa hat on our dog.  Nothing major.

Full outfit only for warmth when they go out if they need or want it.  im not really sure a dress up outfit is really worth it since the dog normally doesn't appreciate playing dollie dressup

If they would let me, but they are cats and do not appreciate it. :P

Not outfits as such, but I do put sweaters and/or a coat on one of my dogs in colder weather. But that's because she 1.)has a lot of scars and bald patches, so she's more vunurable to extreme weather and 2.) Has pretty bad arthritis, so the cold is really bad for her joints. The fact that she looks adorable in her sweaters/coat is just an added bonus  :)

Mr. Cat gets a special holiday collar, but nothing else.

Depends on the pet really.

I used to have two dogs that LOVED wearing clothes, it was ridiculous. They liked wearing sweaters and shirts all through winter and didn't mind coats if it was colder or costumes for short periods (or longer if the costumes were very basic). However after that, I had a cat who absolutely hated clothes. A hat or a festive collar was all she'd tolerate.

Right now we have two guinea pigs and a snake. I love those tube "sweaters" people make for snakes so I'd like to get one for Rose, I don't think she'd mind it for a short time. The boys I'm not so sure about. They might allow a very loose costume or hat, but we haven't tried anything yet. If they don't like it we wouldn't force it.

I would never do that to my two cats. They'd absolutely hate it

Nah. I've tried and they're not having any of it. :lol:

Can't say I blame them, really.

     I would if they’d let me. But our cat tried eating his hat one year, and the dogs just won’t accept clothing at all. I think it messed up their balance or something, since they are mostly made of fur. It might just feel weird. But if they’d let me, I’d probably give the little guys a hat or something. And Sheldon (my crab) has his own Christmas tank decoration, but nothing to wear. Which is good, and I think he likes decorating for the holidays.

No, unless they need to wear something at that specific time.
I have long haired cats and sometimes they need a shave (their fur grows uncontrollably) and if it would happen that they would be newly shaved and it would be very cold (say if our generators stopped working )they might get something to keep them warm.
Odds are that I would just spend my days under a blanket with them so that they wouldn't need clothes anyway xD

It would very much depend on their personalities. My dog can wear clothes sometimes, I know we have a coat for her that my mom puts on her if it's raining particularly hard cause she doesnt like the rain. Though we've never put any "cute" clothes on her. My cat though, we'd tried putting a cute cat Christmas hat on her and she couldn't stand it. :lol:

It depends on the pet and what it is they are to be wearing :)

I would very occasionally dress my previous cat up, but I don't think my current cat would like it.

When I used to ride, I would put tinsel on the bridle's brow band, but not after seeing what horse thought of it first!

Love pkw xxx

I would, for photos but sadly Mr Bubbles passed away  1 year and 8 months ago today  :cry:

However I do  like to torment my sisters cats, so they get dressed up now or they would if I was home.

I said no because my cats wouldn't tolerate it. My dog (he passed away last year) loved to wear clothes. He had the cutest little hoodie he would wear when it got cold.

My little dog that has a sweater that looks like a Christmas one. He wears it only on Christmas day. He has others that he wears regular when it cold out!
