Are you toying with the idea of getting a costume for the cat? Go on, there’s no need to wait for Halloween. Mind you, Halloween is just around the corner.
Although these funny cat costumes may look intricate, a closer look will show that they are usually fastened with Velcro and are easy to put on and take off.
Depending on the mood of your cat, a cat costume may or may not be easy to put on and take off but at least Velcro gives you a fighting chance. This makes them a perfect photo opportunity.
Some cats will tolerate costume wearing better than others. Some cats will tolerate no costume at all and other only for a very short time.
Here is some information from Pet MD about pets wearing costumes. Remember short and sweet is the way to go.
photo taking tips
- Choose a time when your cat is calm and relaxed, typically after a meal or playtime.
- Have a few kitty treats at hand to act as a distraction.
- Brush your cat’s fur to remove any tangles or loose hair, and clean around their eyes if necessary.
- Select a comfortable, well lit area with minimal distractions.
- Wave a wand toy to give you those few seconds to get the perfect shot while the cat is distracted by the wand.
- Use a fast shutter speed to capture quick movements, and consider using burst mode.
- Have your camera or phone ready to take the shot as the cat may scoot off in the seconds that it takes for you to get ready.
- Get down to your cat’s eye level for more engaging shots.
Get a coffee, maybe in a black cat coffee mug and enjoy looking at these funny cat costumes.
If you think your cat won’t be impressed with the whole costume idea, a good solution would be to meet him halfway.
C’mon kitty. Try something simple instead.

More Funny Cat Costumes
There are a lot more costumes on the Chewy site. This is a small section of costumes that are particularly well suited to cats but there are many other choices.
Although you may see predominately dogs in the images, the description will also include cats. It’s really a bit of a stab in the dark, unless you have a particular theme in mind.
Whatever you do decide to go with, remember that your cat may not be too happy about keeping the costume on all night or even for a few minutes or seconds.
To be on the safe side, be ready to get a photo while you can so speed and dexterity may be needed. Lights! Camera! Action! the minute the costume is on.
