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.
