Do Cats Need Clothes in Winter? (Best Hoodies for Dhaka Winter)
Dhaka winters aren't freezing, but the tiled floors in our apartments can get very cold in January. You might see cute pictures of cats in sweaters and wonder: Does my cat actually need this?
Before you check the cat dress price, let's see if your cat is a candidate for winter fashion.
Who Needs Clothes?
-
Kittens & Seniors: They cannot regulate their body heat well.
-
Short-Haired Breeds: Cats with thin fur feel the chill faster.
-
Shaved Persians: If you recently gave your Persian a "lion cut" to manage matting, they absolutely need a sweater to stay warm.
Who Should Avoid Clothes?
-
Full-Coated Persians: Their fur is already a thick blanket. Putting a hoodie on them might cause overheating or severe matting (knots) in their fur.
Choosing the Right Outfit
-
Comfort First: Ensure the armholes are wide.
-
No Buttons/Zippers: These can snag fur. Look for velcro or stretchable fabric.
Summary
Clothes can be functional and cute! Just ensure your cat can move freely. If they "freeze" and fall over when you put it on, they might prefer a warm bed instead.
