this is jack. he got into a fight and ended up with a wound on his side. the vet suggested a shirt as a less stressful approach to keep him from chewing it, rather than a plastic cone.
fun fact: most cats fit into baby shirts sized 0-3 months.

Jack is one cool cat. All that’s missing are the shades. He’s beautiful. Now the cone of dread is replaceable with an small inflatable donut, like an inner tube. So much less stressful. My granddaughter’s cat is wearing one now. Think you can get them at PetsMart but not sure. Still, the shirt is adorable and much more stylish. Hope he’s better soon.

I like the idea of a shirt instead of the cone of shame. Plus, those cones make it hard for them to eat. I like the shirt you chose but I’m not sure Jack does. LOL. Great tip on the size too!
