Hover to zoomSize guide & how to measure
Pet coats and jumpers are sized mainly by back length, with chest girth as a second check. Back length matters most for coverage.
How to measure
- Back length: measure along the spine from the base of the neck (collar area) to the base of the tail.
- Chest: measure around the widest part of the ribcage, behind the front legs.
- If the two measurements suggest different sizes, choose by back length and allow for the chest.
| Size | Typical back length | Typical chest |
|---|---|---|
| XS | 20–25 cm | 30–40 cm |
| S | 25–32 cm | 38–50 cm |
| M | 32–40 cm | 48–62 cm |
| L | 40–50 cm | 60–76 cm |
| XL | 50–60 cm | 74–92 cm |
Ranges are approximate and vary by style. Always check this product’s Specifications for its exact measurements.

Full description
Cats lose heat faster than most owners expect, and thin, elderly or short-coated ones feel a cold house long before anybody else in it does. A fine knit adds a layer without the bulk that makes a cat freeze in place and refuse to walk anywhere. This one is cut for a cat's frame rather than scaled down from a dog jumper, which is the detail that decides whether it sits properly across the shoulders or twists round within an hour.
The skull motif keeps it from being twee, and the fine gauge means it works as a wearable layer rather than a costume, something a cat can be in for an evening rather than five minutes. Five sizes run from XS to XL. A jumper that fits well leaves the front legs free at the armpits, does not ride up over the shoulders, and stops short at the back end so nothing gets caught on a trip to the litter tray.

On sizing: no measurements are published against these sizes and we will not print numbers we cannot verify. Back length, measured from the base of the neck to the base of the tail, is the figure that matters on a jumper.
Who it's for: Owners of short-coated or older cats who feel the cold indoors and want a plain, wearable layer.

Why we chose it
Cut for a cat's frame rather than shrunk from a dog jumper, which is what decides whether it sits across the shoulders or twists round in an hour. Fine gauge, so it is a layer for the evening rather than a five-minute costume.
