619.0. "What does your cat wear?" by CLUSTA::TAMIR () Fri Jun 12 1987 16:50

    What kind of clothing would your kitties wear if he/she wore clothes?
    Imagine your little one(s) dressed in people-clothes that would fit
    his/her/their personality.                         
    
    I can just imagine Honey the Himmy wearing a blue oxford cloth shirt
    with the button-down collar (open at the neck), kahki slacks, and
    boat shoes (no socks).  Chauncey, since he's still a toddler, wears
    OshKosh B'Gosh coveralls and little striped shirts that say "HUG
    ME".  And his little size 1 Reeboks would have the laces untied.
    
    So, what does your cat wear???

619.1Mine thinks he's Rambo4GL::GAUVINFri Jun 12 1987 17:149
    Olajuh my 8 month old blue point himmy usually wears his rambo outfit
    around the house, but when he escapes into another dimension he
    wears his Sherlock Holmes hat and cape searching for hidden bonkers
    with his kittie size magnifying glass that came in his box of Friskies.
    
    Does anyone know where I could find a kittie size pair of
    "superfriends" pj's?

    Sura wears a red Superman-style cape and a black velvet mask to
    suit his other persona as "The Brown Peril" (one of his many
    nick-names).
    
    Kimi says that nothing could be more elegant than his tawny Abyssinian
    coat, though he DOES wear a red velvet collar (for real).

    Sulkitt, the silver aby-mau cross, our grande dame, is a black-velvet,
    off-the-shoulder, strictly haute-couture evening gown sort of cat.
    
    Tiny Tanya, the tawny terrorist aby, wears khaki pants, a safari
    jacket, and itsy-bitsy paratrooper boots...

    Hmmm, I had to think about this!!!

    501 blues with a red tank top and of course his black framed reflective
    sunglasses and black high top reeboks!!!

619.7Amelia and Bailey...a fashion statement?SCRUZ::CORDES_JAMon Jun 15 1987 22:1811
    Amelia Earhart - Brown Tabby and White Domestic Shorthair:  When
    not decked out in brown flight jacket, white silk scarf and aviator
    shades, Amelia would be wearing pinafores and petticoats because she's 
    a sweet little cat who loves to be loved.
    
    Bailey's Irish Cream ("Bailey") - Blue-Cream (almost Torbie) Domestic
    Shorthair:  Bailey would have "borrowed" (translated "stolen") her
    big brother's (if she had one) jeans, t-shirts and sneakers and would 
    be out doing some mischief (probably destroying someone's clothing).

	 Becky wears a pinafore with crinoline petticoat. It just covers
     her butt. She wears patent leather Mary Janes and white ankle socks
     with  lace around the edge. She walks around with a rag doll in one
     hand. The other hand carries a security blanket and her thumb is in
     her  mouth.  She hides behind my skirts. She also tags along behind
     her brother.

	 Josh wears  skin-tight  blue  jeans with holes in the knees and
     ragged  hems.  There is a pack of cigarettes in the back pocket. He
     wears  a  midi-muscle  shirt (short sleeveless tee-shirt) that says
     'Property  of Alcatraz' on it. His hair is always perfectly combed.
     He works out on the nautilus machine every afternoon. He's cool. He
     drives  a  Trans  Am  recklessly  at high speeds. He gets drunk. He
     tries  to  impress  the  girls. Wears hi-top Reeboks that are never
     tied.  


619.10LOOKUP::PRUETTThu Jul 02 1987 15:0422
    Kitty (my long lost cat who is probably roaming the streets of Boston)
    would ware a tight black leather shirk, low necked red top, fish-net
    stockings, black shoes, gold hoop earings, and tons of gold.
    
    Let me explain, but don't think me rotton.
    
    When she was three months old (yes, only three) she saw a kitty
    program on National Geographic, where they showed cats mating. 
    For SIX months after that, she was in heat (but for only 20 days
    out of each month!)  She used to rub her but against EVERYTHING!
    She knocked my toaster of the table 3 times (I am sure you can guess
    how) and each time it broke.  Finally, over a month ago, (just two
    weeks before she took off) we had her spayed.  That solved that
    problem.  Or made a new one. That's what I mean by roamin the streets
    of Boston.
    
    As for my two new little babies, Pokey and Gumby, I really don't
    know yet.  They are only 10 weeks old but somehow I can not picture
    those little terrors wearing diapers and cute little dresses.

619.11the van Grayson lookVENOM::DALEYPaula DaleyTue Jul 14 1987 19:3214
    I am Skyler and Ashley van Grayson's mom, and I know just what they
    would be wearing (hi Kate, these are Alison van Stry kitties too).
    
    Skyler -- a blue persian, would have on well worn levi's with holes
    in the knees, a rumpled shirt, white socks, sneakers, and baseball
    cap (on sideways of course).  He would be off to find some friends
    to join him in a game of some sort.
    
    Ashley -- a black smoke persian, AKA Mr. Dignity, would have on
    a burgundy smoking jacket, an ascot, comfortable slippers and would
    never be far away from his pipe stand.

619.12James Dean KittyDELNI::SCHWINDTFri Jul 17 1987 15:107

    jeans and a tee shirt with ciggaretts rolled up the sleeve.

619.13My Prissy Little Princess, JasperFSPROD::CGILMOREThu Jul 23 1987 16:116
    Jasper would be wearing a long sequined gown,
    with every hair in place under a gleaming crown.
    
    When she wasn't wearing that, she'd have on her
    sexy leotard and would be twirling around the
    uneven bars.
619.14but wouldn't they be cute?AKOV75::FRETTSShine your Spirit!Fri Jul 24 1987 11:5132
    
    Hmm...let's see now.  What would these little guys wear if they could 
    dress up...

    Pistachio - she would probably really get into Laura Ashley dresses,
    you know, those dainty little cotton prints - a real high class 
    country look that costs mucho $'s ...:-)

    Cleo - this is tough....I'll have to come back to her.  Ok. I'm back.
    She would probably wear whatever made her feel comfortable.  Loose
    fitting, natural fiber clothes, preferably long skirts and an over-
    blouse.

    Amber - somehow I can see her in a dress like my grandmother used
    to wear - an old fashioned flower print with a thin belt and a
    pair of sensible shoes.  (Don't get me wrong - Amber is one tough
    cookie underneath all this - just like my grandmother was!)

    Buster Brown - definitely the sweatshirt and jeans look, very clean
    and neatly pressed however - with a pair of reeboks.

    Noel - bibbed overalls with a cotton shirt, and good walking shoes.
    After all, we have to be comfortable on our long roving adventures,
    don't we?

    Well, now that I've thought about this, thank God they don't have
    to be dressed...I'd have to get a second job!

    phase.

619.18It has been a while but Panther insisted...NUTMEG::SPINGLERThu Jun 21 1990 10:1417
    
    I know that it has been a long time, but I couldn't resist.
    
    Panther, Gentle Princess in Training, is always dressed (impecably) to
    suit the occasion.  Laura Ashley prints and pearls for bridge, Armani
    suits for shopping, and elegant royal blue or crimson evening gowns and
    diamonds for evening wear.
    
    Spot, Well, she likes floppy sweats and mismatched colorful sneakers
    for around the house.  Any time she has to go out it is her leather
    jacket and jeans or leather miniskirt with ankle sox and heels.  (She
    wants everyone to think that she is tough.)
    
    Feline haute couture,

619.19IOSG::THOMPSONRNostalgia isn't what it used to beThu Jun 21 1990 11:3812
You're all BARKING MAD.

Henri(etta) would wear trousers - she *HATES* skirts and wouldn't be seen dead 
in one.  Nothing special either - probably jeans and casual jumpers for all 
the tree climbing.

Sophie - well now - she'd be in nothing less than Chanel suits and would ALWAYS
wear stockings and be very well groomed.  She would carry a mirrer at all times
to ensure that her lipstick was perfect.  She only climbs trees to get from A 
to B, because she *HATES* getting her clothes dirty.

619.20An update TPMARY::TAMIRACMS design while-u-waitThu Jun 21 1990 15:4518
Well, I guess I should update this, especially with the arrival of three more
cats since the original note...

Julie loves to wear her skin (fur??) tight black denim jeans, a tube top, and
a black leather jacket.  She also wears 4-inch spike heels...

Robin is kind of a Lands End cat, casual, not to trendy, perhaps a madras
blouse and some comfortable chinos.

Biff, like Chauncey many years ago, is adorable in his little shirts (with
the buttons on the shoulder to make it easier to get over his big ears)
and his OshKosh's.  Of course, we're using cloth instead of disposable diapers
these days....  His Nike Air Jordan high tops flop around his tiny paws...

You're right, Ruth, we are all mad, but what until you wrap that little baby
up in a Celtics uniform....
