Product description
There is a whole category of pet who will let you put something on their head and nothing whatsoever on their body, and this exists for them. It is a soft pumpkin hat on a chin strap and that is genuinely all it is: no sleeves, no cape, nothing round the belly. For a dog or a cat who freezes the moment a garment goes over their shoulders, one hat is the entire costume you are ever going to get.
The hat is soft-bodied rather than moulded, so it squashes flat in a drawer for eleven months and comes back out without a permanent crease across the pumpkin. Fasten the strap loosely enough to slip a finger underneath; if it only stays put when tight, it is the wrong size.
- Soft pumpkin hat with a chin strap
- Two sizes, small and large
- Nothing worn over the body or legs
- Squashes flat for storage between years
- Suits both cats and dogs
Two things worth knowing. And a hat is still a costume: short supervised spells only, off at the first sign your pet has had enough of it.
Who it's for: Pets who will tolerate a hat and nothing more, and owners who have sensibly stopped trying to change their minds.
Why we chose it
There is a category of pet who will wear something on their head and nothing on their body, and this is for them. A soft pumpkin on a chin strap, and that is all. Short supervised spells, off at the first objection.

Size 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.
