Not every animal will accept a hat, and the useful thing about this set is that you do not have to find out the hard way. If your pet tolerates something across the shoulders but objects to anything on the head, you can buy only the half that will actually get worn.

The shawl works like a bib, sitting over the chest and shoulders rather than wrapping the body, which keeps the legs and the ribcage free and makes it quick to lift straight off. The hat is the small novelty sort that perches on top of the head rather than covering the ears. Nothing here fastens tightly around the torso, so a pet who is uncomfortable can shrug the pieces off instead of being trapped in them.

• Spider-web shawl-style bib with a matching novelty hat
• Shawl available in small, medium and large
• Hat sold on its own or paired with the shawl
• Bib sits over the chest and shoulders, leaving the legs free
• Seven listed combinations of hat, shawl and size

On sizing. The hat is listed as a single option. As with any costume this is for short supervised spells, and a hat in particular should come off the moment your pet starts trying to remove it.

Who it's for: Owners of a pet who will sit still for a few minutes of dressing up, and those who would rather buy the shawl alone than have an argument about a hat.
