Thanks, Karen - that was fun! (But you notice they are
mostly dogs - how many of our cats would put up with such
undignified shenanigans?)

You notice there were no self-respecting cats in those shots! okay one at
the end, in a cage. But again, no self-respecting cat would submit to such
indignity! LOL

Actually, there were several cats! And even one lizard - a
gekko? (But dogs were certainly vastly in the majority.)

Mind you, no one was putting costumes on pets
in those days, just hats....but she wore hers with
aplomb and then stuck her tongue out at all and
sundry from my shoulder as we marched around
the neighbourhood on Halloween night.

It was a novelty at the time.

I don't like this at all. I really cannot understand why some people feel
the need to dress their cats/dogs in clothes. (except for
whippets/greyhounds who need it.)

If the animal doesn't object, why should you? (Getting any
of my cats into that sort of getup would be more than my
life was worth, but if the cat is laid back enough to sit
still for it, what does it matter?) With dogs, it's mostly
about pleasing their people, and some of them actually
appear to be enjoying it. Come to think of it, I used to
dress my first kitten in doll clothes and wheel him about in
a doll buggy. He may not have liked it, but he didn't put
up too much of a fuss, either.

I would question why anyone would want to put cats in clothes, unless for
medical reasons. Cats do not need clothes.

I once dressed up my dog for a Christmas photograph with a paper hat around
her neck to send to the rescue society that I got her from to show that she
was a real member of the family and joined in with all our celebrations.
This was Trim, the lurcher, RB. Not an easy dog at all. Mega thief, could
break into any cupboard or fridge that had food in.
She never got over being abandoned and having to live wild even until the
end of her life in her teens. She never trusted that I would feed her twice
daily even though she was with me for 13 years.

Saw a TV show the other day where a woman had a $20,000 wedding and
reception for her two lhasa apsos. Custom made wedding gown, tuxedo, the
works.

Only saving grace was wedding gifts were donations to animal rescue groups.

I must say the guy who had the honor of carrying the bride down the aisle
looked distinctly uncomfortable.

Ugh, that's disgusting! It's bad enough when people spend that much on
their own weddings. And I'm sure it was very meaningful to the dogs.

They could have just given the $20K to the animal rescue groups!

I'll bet he did! He'll never live that one down. And it's on tape for all
eternity. <evil grin>
