Evelyn thank you for sharing your picture. I will have to see if I can find something for the girls (not so sure they will wear them LOL)

Okay, many of your pets seem to enjoy getting dressed up for the season. So I thought I'd give it a try. I didn't realize it was so much fun!
Here's Eli, who seemed to enjoy playing with the lights and toys. Well he enjoyed it initially.
He's a handsome fellow but not looking too impressed. Now trying to get out of this thing.
Next thing you know, he's off the chair, on to the floor, wearing a kilt (he is a male) and walking sideways and backwards. Note how he's checking over his shoulder as he backs up. Safety first!
Okay, maybe it's not all that fun for everybody. Now, for Moni, my tripawd kitty...
It did not go well. She played dead with her eyes open and all I got was blurr. Suddenly, she came to life, undressed herself and I caught one more photo.
I think I'll just decorate my house and leave my cats alone.

TY GUY, Best Black Lab ever! Diagnosed and had amp in January, 2014. Kicked MRSA's butt. Earned his angel wings on April 16, 2014. Run Free my boy and don't forget a shoe. Ty is a proud member of the " April Angels". Ty sent us Daryl, a Tripawd rescue in Sept. of 2016. Daryl is 5 +or -. We are also Pawrents to Chandler, a Border Collie mix who is 15 and 1/2, Lucy, a Corgi who is 7, 2 minis, 2 horses, and a feisty cat named Zoe. Zoe had a non skeletal Osteosarcoma removed in July 2015. No Chemo, she was at least 16. She is going strong although she is now completely blind. She is now close to 20 and her hobbies are eating and sleeping in front of her personal heater.

Domino had his left front leg amputate on May 13th 2014 after being hit by a car. He's now living a happy healthy life on three legs :)
I tried to find something at Petsmart today but I didn't see much. I am going to go back and look again it was very crowded if they don't have anything maybe Petco will but I don't hold out much hope since it is so close to Christmas.

Poor Domino looks just about as sad as Murphy did when he hAd to wear the Santa hat. And Evelyn's stink eye says it all. Love all of these even though I don't think I will dare try one in a sweater after the hat fiasco.
Kathi and Murphy
Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!
UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!

Haha, I'm pretty Dom is more upset over having to sit still for a photo than wearing clothes lol. He's normally a three legged blur.
