Cat clothes are miniature clothing and accessories adapted to their morphology and are light and washable.
Some have a built-in harness or ring for attaching a leash.
Their primary use would be to protect cats against the cold. Still, they are mainly used by owners wishing to give an original look to their little companions for outings or during special events such as a wedding, a family parties, a carnival parades, or for Halloween.

Advantages of clothing for cats
Hairless, cold-weather and older cats may need help coping with the cold when they go outside. A tiny sweater or a soft, comfortable coat can be a great help.
Cats recovering at home may also appreciate being wrapped in warm clothing.

Remember that animals are not objects, dolls with which we play as we please without considering their feelings.
