Product description
Cats are far less keen on clothing than dogs, and any honest description of a cat coat has to start by saying so. The ones this genuinely suits are the specific cases: hairless and rex breeds, elderly cats who have stopped holding their body temperature well, and indoor cats in cold houses. For those, a light padded layer makes a real difference to how much of the day is spent hunched.
The shell is quilted and padded but deliberately light, 250g to 300g depending on size, because weight is what makes a cat lie down and refuse to move at all. The fastening is quick to work, which matters more with a cat than with a dog, since your window of cooperation is short. The hood has ears on it, entirely for your benefit, and folds back when your cat has had enough.
- Padded quilted shell in a light weight
- Hood with ears, which folds back
- Quick fastening for fast dressing
- Two colours, listed as Drow Red and Beca Yellow
- Sizes XS, S, M, L, XL and 2XL
- 250g to 300g depending on size
Be realistic about cats. Many will freeze, flatten or reverse straight out of a coat, and no amount of good design changes that. Introduce it in short indoor sessions, never leave a cat in a coat unsupervised or outdoors where a strap could catch, and accept that some cats simply say no. We have no measurement chart and will confirm sizes on request.
Who it's for: Hairless, thin-coated or elderly cats who genuinely feel the cold, and owners willing to put the work into getting them used to the idea.
Why we chose it
Most cat coats are heavy enough that the cat simply lies down. This one is 250-300g and fastens fast, which matters when your window of cat cooperation is about ten seconds. Stocked for hairless breeds and cold old cats.
— Matt, founder

Size guide & how to measure
The maker sizes this padded coat by chest girth, back length and weight.
How to measure
- Measure the chest at its widest point, just behind the front legs.
- Measure the back from the base of the neck to the base of the tail.
- Match both to a row - if they disagree, go by the chest figure.
| Size | Bust/CM | Back Length/CM | Weight/catties | Weight (kg) |

Manufacturer's own figures. The weight column is printed in Chinese catties (jin); 1 catty = 0.5 kg, and the kg column is that conversion. If between sizes, size up.
