Years ago Miz t. got some kinda cute T shirt for the cat.
I put it on her.
She FROZE.
Absolutely immobile.
Not pissed, just a statue.

Thereafter, when a trip to the vet was scheduled (holy hell in the past), I'd just put the T shirt on her and no problem.

she loved them all. Never tried to take them off, never bit them or anything....she really liked them. Our favorite one was a sweater that was white and had black spots like the Holstein cow? It looked so funny on a long and low to the ground wiener dog. Wish I would have had a photo of her in all her sweaters. We gave them to our animal shelter when she passed away, except I kept the cow sweater, that was my favorite. I still miss her terribly.
